It's a numbers game. . . .
How many ice shoes does a pack of penguins need to climb out of a ditch? A holiday-themed episode of "Cyberchase" has the answer Wednesday (4:30 p.m. on WETA-Channel 26; 5 p.m. on MPT-Channel 22).
DVD watch: "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is the longest book of the series but the shortest movie. It also might be the best. Judge (again) for yourself when the fifth installment hits DVD shelves Tuesday. There are one- and two-disc options, and a nicely packaged five-movie collection. . . . The extended edition of "High School Musical 2" includes a deleted musical scene, "Humuhumunukunukuapua'a."
. . . And for even more Corbin Bleu, check out "Flight 29 Down, Vol. 3."
Holiday happenings: CBS has two "Frosty the Snowman" cartoons tonight at 8. . . . ABC airs the movie "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas" Saturday at 8 p.m. . . . Boomerang presents "A Jetsons Christmas Carol" Saturday at 4 p.m. and "Yogi Bear's All-Star Comedy Christmas Caper" Sunday at 4 p.m. . . . Nickelodeon's 4 p.m. weekday lineup includes the excellent "Rugrats: Chanukah" (Monday) and holiday episodes of "Danny Phantom" (Tuesday) and "All Grown Up" (Wednesday).
Also of note: "Nick News" presents a kids'-eye view of global warming Sunday at 9 p.m. on Nickelodeon. . . . ABC Family airs "Mary Poppins" Monday at 7 p.m.
