Holiday Preview: Heck the Halls with The Middle's Festive Family

Frankie Heck is not going to let the pinch steal Christmas. The Middle's stretched-thin, harried mother (played by Patricia Heaton) has a scant $20 to spend on gifts for her three kids this year. Ever the problem solver, she cracks to her unflappable quarry-manager husband Mike (Neil Flynn): "I'll fake my own death!" This way, she says, when she appears very much alive on Christmas morning, her children will be so happy they won't care that there aren't any presents. Too dark?

Critic's Guide to Wednesday TV: Nearing the End of Survivor and X Factor

Some thoughts about what's on tonight, starting with the reality contests. Was CBS' Survivor just teasing us with that trailer that showed Edna the Meek possibly upsetting Ozzy the Cocky in the next Redemption Island challenge? We'll believe it when we see it, but it would be nice for something unexpected to happen. The final Upolu 5 have stayed boringly, rigidly loyal to their game plan the last few weeks, but now that it's down to the next-to-last episode (8/7c) — the finale airs as the usual multi-hour extravaganza on Sunday — all bets presumably are off. Could anything keep Coach from making the finals? And if Ozzy somehow is bounced as well, that would make the climactic tribal council more interesting — which isn't the same as memorable.

Exclusive: Army Wives Says Hello to Goodbye Girl

Kim Delaney's Army Wife is getting a visit from Mom — and neither lady will be welcomed with "Happy to See Me."For a pair of episodes of the hit Lifetime drama, four-time Oscar nominee Marsha Mason has been enlisted to fill the plum role of Charlotte Meade, Claudia Joy's upper-crust and always-distant mother who shows up in South Carolina expectedly — and harboring a somewhat urgent, unsaid agenda. (Um, anyone else here take Reading Between the Lines 101? I audited the class myself.) Mason's episodes will air in mid-August. — Matt Mitovich

Can you please tell me the ...

Question: Can you please tell me the name of the Hallmark movie that is about a woman named Annie who enters a horseback-riding contest with a blind horse named Tolo? I'd like to buy or rent this movie. Thank you for your help.Answer: You're thinking of Hallmark Entertainment's The Long Shot, which debuted on the Hallmark Channel as a movie of the week in April 2004. For the benefit of the uninitiated, it stars Julie Benz (Taken, Angel) as a Colorado riding enthusiast and struggling single mom who enters a musical-freestyle riding contest with a horse that goes blind before the big day. Marsha Mason costars as the owner of the place where Benz trains and works. You can check your local video store to see if it's available for rental or, if you're feeling a little patient, you can
