Favorite Holiday Cartoons

[fureverywhere]

For us younger boomers there were the Christmas cartoons that made the season special. My favorites:

Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer-Herbie wants to be a dentist...oh and the snowman singing " Silver and Gold". I felt bad when I read one time that Burl Ives was a real letch. Say it ain't so, he was such a sweet snowman. Oh and sing with me " Why am I such a misfit?...".

How the Grinch Stole Christmas-The movie was creepy but the cartoon perfect.

A Charlie Brown Christmas

I always like a Charlie Brown Christmas, we had a tree like that when I was a kid. :sentimental: This movie was slightly creepy, but I liked it.

That movie went over my head, scary as the dickens. Something else I remember is you read the TV guide and marked the calendar when your favorite cartoon would be on. The network showed it once a year and that was it. Imagine todays kids understanding that concept. No video recording, no streaming, not even a VCR...oh and the networks shutting down to a test pattern around midnight.

Kids always liked Frosty the Snowman. Me, no favorites.
