Default Christmas TV Classics

Ok, who all can remember watching these movies on tv every Christmas:

Quote:
he Original Television Christmas Classics
(Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer / Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town / Frosty the Snowman / Frosty Returns / The Little Drummer Boy)


Amazon.com: The Original Television Christmas Classics (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer / Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town / Frosty the Snowman / Frosty Returns / The Little Drummer Boy): Billie Mae Richards, Burl Ives, Jackie Vernon, Billy De Wolfe, Fre



Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964) (TV)

Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964) (TV)

Sam the snowman tells us the story of a young red-nosed reindeer who, after being ousted from the reindeer games because of his beaming honker, teams up with Hermey, an elf who wants to be a dentist, and Yukon Cornelius, the prospector. They run into the Abominable Snowman and find a whole island of misfit toys. Rudoph vows to see if he can get Santa to help the toys, and he goes back to the North Pole on Christmas Eve. But Santa's sleigh is fogged in. But when Santa looks over Rudolph, he gets a very bright idea...




Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (1970) (TV)

Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (1970) (TV)

The Mailman decides to answer some of the most common questions about Santa Claus, and tells us about a small baby named Kris who was left on the doorstep of the Kringle family (toymakers). When Kris grew up, he wanted to deliver toys to the children of Sombertown. But its Burgermeister (Herr Meisterburger) is too mean to let that happen. And to make things worse, there's an evil wizard named Winter who lives between the Kringles and Sombertown, but Kris manages to melt Winter's heart (as well as the comely schoolteacher's) and deliver his toys.


Frosty the Snowman (1969) (TV)

Frosty the Snowman (1969) (TV)

A discarded silk tophat becomes the focus of a struggle between a washed-up stage magician and a group of schoolchildren after it magically brings a snowman to life. Realizing that newly-living Frosty will melt in spring unless he takes refuge in a colder climate, Frosty and a young girl who he befriends stow away on a freight train headed for the north pole. Little do they know that the magician is following them, and he wants his hat back. This animated short is based on the popular Christmas song of the same name.



Frosty Returns (1992) (TV)

Frosty Returns (1992) (TV)

Twitchell's invented Summer Wheeze: a spray-can that instantly removes snow and slush. And Beansborough's getting snow-free. And Holly has to keep Frosty from melting, and convince everybody that snow's actually a good thing.



The Little Drummer Boy (1968) (TV)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063230/

When Aaron's family is killed, he hates all people and his only friends are the lamb Baabaa, the donkey Samson and the camel Joshua. But an unscrupulous travelling performer convinces them to join his troupe, and then sells Joshua to a trio of kings. Aaron follows the star to find Joshua, but then Baabaa is badly injured, and Aaron must overcome his hatred of mankind and find a gift with which to approach the babe in the manger and ask for help.

I do watch A Christmas Story every year, but I love National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

The original Frosty was too.

Christmas Vacation is still funny!

Why??? You can't say anything I don't already know. I've always been a misfit and I rather enjoy not following the crowd.
