A Stylish Guide to Holiday Viewing

Winter Storm Draco is currently bringing a better-than-average chance of a white Christmas to the Midwest. Although it’s not slated to affect us here at APA Style HQ, I sort of envy you folks in Des Moines and Milwaukee—there’s nothing better on a snowy night than curling up with a warm drink and watching some holiday TV.

With that in mind, here are a few examples of how to cite the can’t-miss fare that’s streaming across the airwaves this weekend. Grab a seat by the fire and pass the cocoa!

Burton, T. (Producer), & Selick, H. (Director). (1993). The nightmare before Christmas [Motion picture]. Burbank, CA: Touchstone. Roman, P. (Producer & Director). (2000). Grandma got run over by a reindeer [Television special]. Atlanta, GA: Cartoon Network. Sager, T. (Writer), & Scardino, D. (Director). (2007). Ludachristmas [Television series episode]. In T.
