Patrick Kevin Day Los Angeles Times It's the kind of special that harried parents may want to turn on for their own tired parents to help babysit the kids. They'll enjoy the extended tribute to milkmen. Dec 5, 2014 Full Review Brian Lowry Variety But at the risk of sounding like a Grinch, while Murray gets the sleigh off the ground, How Murray Saved Christmas doesn't manage to stay airborne. Dec 5, 2014 Full Review Robert Bianco USA Today The very multicultural Murray is one of those rare holiday specials the entire family can enjoy for years to come. Dec 5, 2014 Full Review Ed Bark Uncle Barky It's way short on charm, labors to be amusing and runs out of gas well before its hour is up. Rated: C- Dec 5, 2014 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette it's a clever, funny hour that's written in rhyme with imaginative songs threaded throughout. Dec 4, 2014 Full Review Joyce Slaton Common Sense Media Slightly edgy Christmas special makes Santa a grump. Rated: 2/5 Dec 2, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

jacob b An underrated Christmas special that I've somehow never heard of until this year, How Murray Saved Christmas is a charming 42-minute adventure with nice animation, charismatic voice acting, enjoyable musical numbers and a ton of witty rhymes with scenes and lines that actually had me laughing out loud. Not sure why critics weren't into this. It's a special that's meant to hearken back to the days of golden-age Simpsons and I think it, on the whole, succeeds. And who ever said there hasn't been a good Christmas special since the '70s? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny Christmas story worth watching. Must be from the makers of Family Guy & Simpsons Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Really Underrated Christmas special Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member I didn't expect to like it -- but it was fresh, brilliantly funny for kids and adults, mildly irreverent, and full of quotable gag lines that have become part of the holiday vocabulary for my kids and me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Going to be completely frank - if you don't like irreverent humor then you'll find this special to be unbearable. If you like this kind of humor, you're still likely to cringe at most of the terrible jokes and ridiculously stupid songs that Family Guy wouldn't even pick up. You know you're in for a treat when the first thing you learn about the special is that it starts off in a town called "Stinky Cigars." Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked it. It cute and funny for Christmas... Hilarious ð???ð???ð??¬ Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
