Frosty or Rudolph?
This is my 5th post about Christmas traditions. Today I want to talk about Christmas specials on TV. This is sort of a new tradition – as traditions go. I mean, some traditions are hundreds of years old, like making wreaths and putting up a tree. But Christmas specials have only been around since television was invented.
That’s enough historical stuff.
So, my very favorite Christmas special of all time is Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer – the one with Burl Ives and Clarice the pretty reindeer. But I also love The Peanuts, and The Chipmunks… and anything with music… or ice skating… or ballet. LOL I love them ALL!
So, what is YOUR very favorite TV Christmas special?

The classic show about that red-nosed reindeer is my childhood favorite, but Frosty is such a handsome dude, so I like that show, too!;D
Don't forget Grinch, BTW!

Hope your weekend was good. :)

I love Christmas specials! I love the old classics especially. My favorites are...
1) Santa Clause is Coming to Town
2) Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer
3) White Christmas
4) Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol (it is a bit confusing, though)
And who couldn't love Charlie Brown?

Has anyone seen the new movie 'Holiday in Handcuffs'? it is a really great holiday movie! And it stars Melissa Joan Hart-the same actress that played Sabrina in the series! I could watch Holiday In Handcuffs over and over!

I don't watch tv but I like to listen to the radio. I don't hear many contemporary Christmas stories except remade ones on Adventures in Odyssey. I like to listen to the old ones like recordings of Miracle on 34th Street, and The Bluebird.
