Wallenstein on TV: Chrismukkah on 'The OC'

By Andrew Wallenstein
Published December 16, 2004 at 12:00 AM EST

Day to Day television critic Andrew Wallenstein comments on Thursday night's "Chrismukkah" episode of the Fox prime-time soap opera The OC. He says that combining the holidays of Christmas and Hanukkah -- even on a television show -- misleads people about the nature of the Jewish holiday.
