But before reading, I wanted to continue in the vein of favorite holiday wackiness and some of the wackiest wack comes in the form of televised holiday cheer. Some I just can't stomach, but others make me giggle, and still others draw the nostalgic tear.
Good for giggles:
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964)

A Christmas Story (1983)

But the special most likely to make me snort eggnog up my nose from laughter:
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989)
(And I know it's crazy, but I love that song!! Proof that I'm a child of the 80s, no doubt)
And last but not least, nostalgia-filled favorite Christmas special of all time:
A Muppet Family Christmas (1987), which contains this unforgettable moment -
All great choices, but you can't beat Rudolph, Hermie, and Yukon Cornelius! Where's Santa Claus is Coming to Town"? That one is awesome, too! :)
ReplyDeleteAwwww, gobbler Big Bird. *smiley tears*
ReplyDeleteStay snug tonight!
Sorry bout the being snowed in, but it sounds like you will make the best of it.
ReplyDeleteBe safe and don't forget to keep writing!
Great choices, but you gotta luv that Santa is such a biggot in Rudolph. We watched it the other night with the kids and I cringed.
ReplyDeleteThe snow suit in A Christmas Story is hysterical. It's our family joke everytime we go skiing.
Have a very merry Christmas!!!
Merry Christmas everyone!!
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE Muppet Family Christmas. I have it recorded on VHS at home. It's my favorite Christmas movie to watch. :)
