Hey Pups! =3
Since Christmas is only almost a month away, and Thanksgiving has happened, I say we should get into the Christmas Spirit by discussing some Christmas Specials we love to watch.
I assume there are some who shall watch the obviois, Rakin & Bass ones, I for example shall watch "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town".
Along with watch some old Disney Tapes, with that "Wonderful World Of Disney" Show on it, along with my Recording of "How The Grinch Stole Christmas". X3
I'll also watch some British stuff, like The Snowman & Father Christmas. Those are always nice to watch as well! =3
Probably watch, The Santa Clause too, I got an entire tape of Christmas Movies somewhere about.
I should also watch "A Christmas Carol", like the Muppet and Jim Carrey Version.
Along with the most obviously "A Christmas Cruella" *Hugs* X3
Still, What about you, Pups? =3
What Christmas Specials do you enjoy to watch? *Hugs* X3

OK, one Christmas special sums it all up, I think. "The Year Without a Santa Claus". That's it, it's the only Christmas special I need... because all I need to watch over every holiday season is a little of this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yon2YuXssvoThe other /traditional/ Christmas special that my family watches every year is... more of a movie, really. Pretty sure most have heard of the movie "Elf". People in my family start quoting it near October, but I feel like it never gets old every time I watch it. "Buddy the elf, what's your favourite colour?!" @w@ Other than that, I'll usually just watch any Christmas special that comes on the very limited channels we actually get on television, so long as it isn't too early for my tastes. Oh! I like "Nightmare Before Christmas" too, that's a pretty traditional one in my family... Oh, and I forgot about - -suddenly cuts off before a novel is written on the subject- |

AH! Hearing of the Charlie Brown Christmas one reminds me of another special, I like watching! =3
While I may not have seen 'CBC", I have seen the video where the cast of Scrubs, dub over it with an amusing twist to the tail.
J.D as Charlie Brown and Dr. Cox as Linus. X3
Also, another point to watch is 'Santa Claus Conquers The Martians'...well...not the Movie itself, but the Riffing of it. ;3
Remember when MST3K did it? X3
Ooooh, The Misers you like, Growlie? B3
Did you know they had their own Spin Off Special?
"A Miser Brothers' Christmas" and yes, They do sing their song. X3
Ah! The first two Home Alone films and National Lampoon Christmas Vacation are good ones too! ;3
Thanks for reminders of those. =3
You Pups know any other Christmas Specials, you like to watch? *Hugs* X3

I couldn't agree more... Elf's become a bit of a classic in my family. Already watched it 2 times this year and it isn't even December yet.  Ah yes, my family has always loved the Miser bros. My dad and his brother would pretend to be them when they were younger, and coisidentally my dad raised us here in the land of mountains and snow and his brother raised his family where they get nothing but sunshine year round. You can probably guess which Miser we support.  I have seen that sequel last year, actually. Wasn't too much into their animation style, but it was OK. Still like their original debut much better though. :3 Ah yes, Home Alone... One of these days I should watch them all in succession but the only one that seems to come on television here is the second one for some reason. |
