NBC is bringing back a holiday tradition this season: the stop-motion classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer will air on Friday, December 5 at 8pm. EST, with a second broadcast scheduled for Thursday, December 11 at the same time. Many longtime fans know Rudolph as the longest-running Christmas TV special in the United States, and its return to network television is drawing attention as a nod to holiday-season nostalgia.

For those who prefer streaming or aren’t able to catch the TV airing, the special is also available for digital purchase through platforms like Apple TV+ and Amazon Prime Video. The special will also appear as part of cable-channel programming on Freeform’s annual “25 Days of Christmas” schedule.
