Not merely a superior musical version, it is a pioneer among animated Christmas traditions.

For me, Mister Magoo's Christmas Carol, which marks its 50th anniversary this week with a Saturday night presentation by NBC -- which hasn't shown it in decades -- will always be my Christmas Carol.

Loved this as a kid, and still love it now. I have the DVD version so nothing is cut out. The songs are memorable and the graphics sharp and lively. The idea of framing the story in a play was different and adds a novel approach. A must see for me every Christmas season. 🎄
