Gizmo Makes an Appearance in New Christmas Commercial from McDonald’s! [Video]

You’re not the only cute one on television anymore, Grogu.

It’s been a long time since we last hung out with Gizmo, with the Gremlins franchise never waning in popularity but nevertheless lying dormant since the release of Gremlins 2: The New Batch way back in 1990. That all changes next year with HBO Max’s animated series “Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai,” but how about a little reunion with Gizmo… right now?

McDonald’s is celebrating the holidays this year with a “Free Daily Holiday Deals” promotion, with free daily deals available on their app with a $1 purchase. The promotion runs until December 24th, Christmas Eve, and the commercial for the promotion imagines what the McDonald’s meals of iconic pop culture characters in the holiday sphere would look like.

Buddy the Elf, for example, would probably order pancakes and drown them in syrup, while the Griswolds would be ordering for the whole family. And the commercial even features an appearance from Gizmo, who briefly emerges from a backpack to snatch some nuggets!

More from Gizmo real soon. For now, this will have to hold you over.

The slasher-themed relaunch of “Pretty Little Liars” continues this coming May with “Pretty Little Liars: Summer School,” and you can slash into the official trailer down below.

“Summer School” begins on Max on May 9, 2024.

The Max Original series from Warner Bros. Television debuts with two episodes on Thursday, May 9, we’ve learned, followed by one new episode weekly through June 20 on Max.

Following the harrowing events of “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin,” our Pretty Little Liars face a fate worse than death – summer school. However, Millwood High isn’t the only thing getting in the way of their fun summer jobs and new, dreamy love interests.

A new villain, who may or may not have a connection to A, has come to town and is going to put them all to the test.

Bailee Madison, Chandler Kinney, Zaria, Malia Pyles, and Maia Reficco return as the next generation of Pretty Little Liars.

The series also stars Mallory Bechtel, Sharon Leal, Alex Aiono, Jordan Gonzalez, and Elias Kacavas.

The series is created, written, and executive produced by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (“Riverdale,” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) and Lindsay Calhoon Bring (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”). Aguirre-Sacasa’s Muckle Man Productions and Alloy Entertainment produce, in association with Warner Bros. Television.

Alloy’s Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo are also executive producers, along with Marlene King (who developed the original “Pretty Little Liars” series), and Michael Grassi.
