DreamWorks' SHREK THE HALLS, a new half-hour of entertainment starring America's favorite ogre and his friends, will air Wednesday, Nov. 28, at 8:00 p.m. (ET) on the ABC Television Network.
It's Christmas Eve and everyone is filled with holiday cheer -- except for Shrek. He isn't exactly the picture of yuletide joy, but for the sake of Fiona and the kids, he tries to get into the spirit of things as only an ogre can. Unfortunately, everyone seems to have their own ideas about what Christmas is all about, so when Donkey, Puss In Boots, Gingerbread Man and the whole gang try to join in on the fun, Shrek's plans for a cozy family celebration end up spiraling into one truly unforgettable Christmas.
SHREK THE HALLS is written by Gary Trousdale & Sean Bishop and Theresa Cullen & Bill Riling, produced by Gina Shay and Teresa Cheng and directed by Gary Trousdale. Executive Producer is Aron Warner.
DreamWorks Animation's most successful franchise to date, the SHREK series is based on the popular children's book by William Steig. The latest installment, SHREK THE THIRD, recently wrote box office history by scoring the biggest opening weekend ever for an animated film, and has grossed nearly $800 million at the worldwide box office to date. SHREK THE THIRD will be available on DVD and HD-DVD on Nov. 13, 2007.
