Title: Favorite Christmas Specials? Post by: Kaseykockroach on December 08, 2011, 12:08:07 PM Can be any kind, be it Christmas-themed episodes of your favorite TV shows, or just those one-hour specials.
Son of Stimpy/Stimpy's First Fart Woodland Critter Christmas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_dJQSIQwl6c Muppet Family Christmas http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtgYDpvRCMI And of course Chuck Jones' Grinch, but that goes without saying. (Sorry, not a big Peanuts fan. And those Rankin-Bass specials always creeped me out). :P Title: Re: Favorite Christmas Specials?

I'm just glad I was the first to exploit the opportunity. :teddyr: Title: Re: Favorite Christmas Specials?

Post by: 66Crush on March 25, 2012, 12:02:13 AM It always bugs me that people trash "A Charlie Brown Christmas." I love it. Peanuts cartoons always get accused of being depressing, but it's a hell of a lot less depressing than "Frosty" or "Rudolph."

Title: Re: Favorite Christmas Specials? Post by: Nakuyabi on March 27, 2012, 04:58:54 AM Well, this past Christmas, this classic Twilight Zone Christmas episode was our entertainment for the evening:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKyDpD5RM98 It's an excellent story that, as with the rest of the series, presents a unique twist on what would otherwise be a rather cliched subject. I later discovered the 1980s remake of that episode, which was pretty good too, albeit with a slightly different spin on everything: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuz2-QGvuog http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtIdU2yW1YQ Title: Re: Favorite Christmas Specials?

I still love "A Charlie Brown Christmas"....it wouldn't seem like Christmas without it,IMO.

Peanuts cartoons always get accused of being depressing, but it's a hell of a lot less depressing than "Frosty" or "Rudolph." I'm indifferent to it myself (and Peanuts in general. I prefer Calvin & Hobbes, The Far Side and Pogo Possum). Mostly due to overexposure. Title: Re: Favorite Christmas Specials?
