HALLMARK'S 'NIGHT' WORTH REMEMBERING

As part of its impressive string of holiday specials, Hallmark Channel presents an unusual Christmas greeting from World War II Germany. Premiering Dec. 14, the movie Silent Night is based on the true story of a German mother - played by Linda Hamilton - and son who somehow manage to enjoy a peaceful holiday meal with the American and German soldiers who stumble onto their cabin near the front lines in 1944. Since this is a Hallmark holiday film, it's predictable that the encounter will produce friendship and understanding among bitter enemies, who sing around a makeshift tree. (No Hallmark ornaments to be seen.) But the script contains enough plot twists to keep a broad family audience in suspense until the end.

TEEN'S THE CENTER OF ATTENTION ON 'RAVEN'

Viewers too young to remember The Cosby Show are the key demographic target for Disney Channel's That's So Raven, which rolls out Jan. 17. This is a family sitcom, but it revolves around the teenage daughter, played by former Cosby kid Raven - she was Raven-Symone as a 3-year-old playing little Olivia. As if the typical teenage predicaments aren't enough, Raven is a touch psychic, which allows her to get into and out of jams before they happen. Teenage girls will probably tune in, if only to see what Raven's wearing.
