Hello!
[The Office]( is without a doubt one of the most successful sitcoms in the post-Seinfeld era, and its effect can still be felt with all the careers it helped launch. But while Steve Carell has gotten so big that we now see him only in dramatic roles, Oscar Nunez is hanging out with Chris Paul, and John Krasinski is [all buff as an action star]( we demand some major blockbuster parts for today’s birthday boy, Brian Baumgartner, who played Kevin Malone in the NBC comedy. Personally, we’d rather see him as Jack Ryan, and we think he’d make a more convincing 40-year-old virgin, so make it happen, Hollywood. Hopefully someone put a bunch of candles in a [bucket of chili]( for his special day. Here are tonight’s TV picks:

[Inundate yourself with holiday magic thanks to the Wonderful World of Disney](
Thursday at 9/8c on ABC
If you’re looking for spectacle to go with your yuletide prep, the self-proclaimed “Most Magical Place on Earth” is a good place to start. The two-hour special Wonderful World of Disney: Magical Holiday Celebration should be every bit as joyous as its descriptive name, leaving you with tinsel spilling out of your ears. Performances from Disneyworld include Gwen Stefani, Andrea Bocelli, Meghan Trainor, Brett Eldredge and more, as well as visits from [that 90-year-old rodent]( and his forever-grinning pals.
NO REST FOR THE WEARY
[S.W.A.T.](
[S.W.A.T. spends its day off working very hard](
Thursday at 10/9c on ABC
S.W.A.T. definitely falls in the broadcast cop procedurals category, but you know what it has that the others don’t? Shemar Moore! As Hondo, Moore puffs out his chest and catches bad guys as well as anyone on TV, but he’s particularly swoony when things get personal, and tonight he spends his day off — day off! — hunting down a serial rapist who roofied his sister. Always on duty, that guy.
COP A LOOK

Season 2 now on CBS All Access
This under-the-radar comedy was released last week during Thanksgiving, but now that you’re done being cornered by estranged family members and sleeping on airport floors, it’s a good time to binge it. It’s ostensibly about the downtime that cops (and crooks and dispatchers) go through while on stakeouts and the inane conversations they have while waiting, but Season 2 amps things up just a bit with a little more serialized action to break up the simple two-shot chats. What makes it great is the cast, which includes Tim Meadows, Jason Mantzoukas and Amy Sedaris, with drop-ins by guest stars Jessica Alba, Nasim Pedrad, J.K. Simmons and more.
NOW THAT’S A REAL TV BLOCK
[Lego Jurassic World](
[Keep the kids happy with Lego: Jurassic Park](
Thursday at 8/7c, 8:30/7:30c on NBC
If there is a child between the ages of 2 and 12 in your house, there is a 1000-percent chance that they like Legos and dinosaurs. Watch them lose their minds over this special, which combines both into what amounts to two back-to-back Christmas toy commercials. Thankfully, the new extensions of the Lego brand in movies, video games and TV shows have all been pretty good, so this should be more of the same. Plus, a T-Rex made out of blocks? Yes!
IT’S ACTUALLY EASY BEING GREEN IF YOU’RE FAMOUS
[Kermit the Frog](
[How does Kermit the Frog as a talk show guest work?](
Friday morning at 12:30/Thursday night at 11:30c on CBS
The Late Late Show with James Corden is bringing Kermit the Frog to the couch tonight, and if you’re like us, you’re thinking, “Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?” How will this work? Will the puppeteer cram themself in the fold of the couch? Will he be animatronic? Has he become sentient? Watch and find out. And while you’re at it, stick around for Minka Kelly, who’s also appearing on the show tonight. You don’t ever need an excuse to watch Minka Kelly.
