Re: Classic Christmas TV Special
Posted: Sun Apr 13, 2008 7:47 pmThat was a tough question! 
I love them all, too, but if pressed, I'd choose Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, because I love Sam the Snowman and the tunes in this one, too.

Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2008 9:58 pmThat proves it! The poll is split 25% for each one -- so they're ALL our favorites! And we have to watch everyone at Christmas time!

Posted: Fri May 16, 2008 4:33 amIts a real close 1 - 2 between A Charlie Brown Christmas and How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Both are wonderful examples of the true meaning and Spirit of Christmas, but I chose Charlie Brown.

Re: Classic Christmas TV Special
Posted: Mon Jun 02, 2008 10:15 pmI like each of the first 3..but my top favorite is Rudolph (isn't it wonderful that Hermey and Rudolph get some privacy time away from the shop by running away together?).
Re: Classic Christmas TV Special
Posted: Tue Jun 03, 2008 7:16 pmI chose Charlie Brown. I try to watch as many specials as possible during Christmas, but Charlie Brown is the only one that I CAN NOT miss!

Re: Classic Christmas TV Special
Posted: Wed Oct 01, 2008 7:40 pmYeah I LOVE the Charlie Brown Christmas one - and they even have a 'sequel' - I found it last year but it went away and I have yet to find it this year.
Re: Classic Christmas TV Special
Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2008 3:14 pmActually, there are 3 sequels to the Charlie Brown Christmas special:
1. It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown (1992, CBS; has only aired once and is available on VHS/DVD)
2. Charlie Brown's Christmas Tales (2002, ABC; has aired after A Charlie Brown Christmas)
3. I Want A Dog For Christmas, Charlie Brown (2003, ABC; airs as a stand-alone special, anyone confirm that?)

Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2008 8:06 pmI chose Charlie Brown though I make sure to watch them all every year! Once December hits, we're non-stop TV Christmas movies and shows every day! (of course we watch Christmas shows ALL year long!)

Re: Classic Christmas TV Special
Posted: Tue Aug 10, 2010 8:16 amLeprechaun's Christmas Gold is another 60's era Rankin/Bass special that always gets overlooked. I have a DVD-burn copy of a VHS from another online friend, but it is impossible to find commercially. Such a loss.

I loved Prep Landing last year but I've never heard of this film. I'm certain my children would enjoy it -- so I'll order it from Amazon.com. Thanks!
