Favourite Christmas Specials & Films

Okay christmas day and arguements over who gets to watch what where and listen to what when that I decided to drop a couple of lists here.

First let's start with my personal favourite television Christmas Holiday specials.
The list is always debateable but as I mentioned this is my personal faves.
Let me number these!
23. Santa Claus is Coming to Town
22. The Life & Adventures of Santa Claus
21. Twas the Night Before Christmas
20. Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too
19. Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas
18. Hope for the Holidays - A Bob Hope Christmas
17. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus
16. The Man Who Saved Christmas
15. The Littlest Chistmas Tree
14. The Hogfather
13. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas
12. the Alister Sim animated Christmas Carol
11. Frosty The Snowman
10. The Little Drummer Boy
9. Rudolph The Red nosed Reindeer
8. A Year Without Santa
7. Elvis Christmas in Hawaii
6. A Rugrats Hanukah
5. California Raisin Christmas
4. A B.C. Christmas
3. O'Henry's Gift Of The Magi
2. A Charlie Brown Christmas
1. A Wish For Wings That Work

Now while this is a personal list it is not to say it's a end all and be all. I mean part of me misses the Dofasco Christmas Choir. There are four other Peanuts Christmas themed specials but to me the original is the best. Rugrats has two Christmas specials and a Kwanza special and to me their Hanukah is miles better. Not that their explanation of Kwanza is at all shabby. I am saying when I see a Power Ranger's Christmas Carol i always get the feeling the broadcaster is selling too hard to re3alize they may be missing the point. That is to say I try to look for actual special not dependent on the current television situation. In the meantime there are going to be less holiday specials in coming years because it's easier for network and cable stations to air holiday movie family events. To this here is a list of my favourite Christmas and Holiday themed films.

Christmas films twenty of my faves of the moment....
