Miracles of miracles You have all day to enjoy "Miracle on 34th Street" (5 a.m., Fox Movie Channel), thanks to a daylong marathon that alternates between the 1947 and 1994 versions.

What could be more peaceful than that?
Critic's choice

The Mickey Mouse club Let me be the first to wish you happy holidays! (I am the first, right?) Next in line: Ryan Seacrest, Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa, who are all hosting "Walt Disney World Christmas Day Parade" (9 a.m., KSTP, Ch. 5), with appearances by Miley Cyrus, Jessica Simpson and Menudo. Wait, did I just say Menudo? Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus!
Holly, Jolly Roger Christmas Johnny Depp may not be your idea of a Christmas spirit, but he brings enough magic to the role of Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Carribean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" (7 p.m., KSTP, Ch. 5) to make this the perfect after-feast choice.
