"HOOPS&YOYO RUIN CHRISTMAS," A NEW ANIMATED HOLIDAY SPECIAL PRESENTED BY HALLMARK, WILL BE BROADCAST FRIDAY, NOV. 25 AT 8:00-8:30 PM, ET/PT, ON THE CBS TELEVISION NETWORK

HOOPS&YOYO RUIN CHRISTMAS, a new animated special presented by Hallmark, follows the unexpected adventure of the comical pink kitty and green bunny team, hoops&yoyo, after they become accidental stowaways on Santa�s sleigh. This holiday program will be broadcast Friday, Nov. 25 (8:00-8:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

When hoops&yoyo - and their little friend, piddles - wait up on Christmas Eve to catch a glimpse of Santa, their curiosity lands them in his sleigh shortly after he goes down their chimney. Unable to exit the sleigh before takeoff without being spotted by Santa, they soon find themselves caught in the time-space continuum that allows him to travel the world in one night.

When turbulence jostles the trio from the sleigh, they fall through a wormhole and end up going back in time with a young Kris Kringle. After realizing they have disrupted Kris�s journey to fulfilling his destiny, hoops&yoyo and piddles race to set things right so the world will have its Santa Claus.

Will Christmas ever be the same? Will Santa ever be the same? Only time - and perhaps a little time travel - will tell.

HOOPS&YOYO RUIN CHRISTMAS is a Hallmark presentation.
