Jeff M 02/04/2024 With the exception of my beloved Emmet Otter, I don't think any other Christmas movie or special has quite the nostalgic impact as this does for me. I recall watching it every Christmas at my grandparents' house. This was in the days before VCRs and DVD players, so I had to basically plan my life during Christmas vacation around whenever this would air on WGN. I love the late 70s/early 80s animation, I love the characters that I grew up with on Saturday mornings, I love the whimsical songs, I love the Laff-a-Lympic winter battles in which the characters compete... I could be wrong, but I don't think you can quite appreciate it unless you grew up in this era. It fills me with so many feelings of reminiscence from my childhood that I almost become nauseous. But in a good way, of course. In essence, it takes me back to a time when all my parents and grandparents were still alive and life just seemed a bit more innocent and special. It's one of those occasions when I can't be unbiased because of the special place it has in my heart. But nostalgia aside, I find it a heckuva lot of fun and my Christmas just isn't the same without it.
