"Dirty Dancing" (11 a.m., TV Guide Channel): When it comes to Patrick Swayze marathons, I'd prefer "North and South," but that's just me.

"'Til Death" (7 p.m., WFLD-Channel 32): I'm not saying they're burning off four episodes in a row, but it's difficult to find a new audience on Christmas night.

'80 all the time (5:40 p.m., Encore): A group of young filmmakers conduct a poignant search for director John Hughes - a year before his untimely death - in a documentary that also includes appearances by Kevin Smith, Ally Sheedy, Judd Nelson, Andrew McCarthy, Alan Ruck, Kelly LeBrock, Justin Henry, Roger Ebert, Jason Reitman and Richard Roeper. After that, Cyndi Lauper hosts "The Breakfast Club" at 7 p.m., "Sixteen Candles" at 8:40 p.m., "Weird Science" by 10:15, and let's hope by then you've passed out.
