She frightened my son! lol

what the hell was she wearing? my husband and i were stunned!

my son actually noticed that almost every female on the show had a really short skirt on - even the old bag trio. lol. Of course he much preferred Charo in the short skirt - she is aging quite well! We thought Miss Yvonne and Zsa Zsa would have a catfight over their cleavage (not to mention Annette w/ the tight sweater!). Its so funny watching this with a child. I had a hard time convincing my son that KD Lang was a woman. And my husband and i were dying over Floorey telling Miss Yvonne to come stand over him - my son was cracking up for a different reason - he just likes Floorey's voice. My son didnt even notice those shirtless construction guys!

i am so glad i taped this!!

They put in a little something for the parents so they won't mind watching this with their kids. See, this was made back in the day of movies and TV shows for FAMILIES, not ones made specificially for kids and only kids.

Very well said, ExplorerDS6789. This is still one of the funniest Christmas shows of all time. I love that the Dinosaur family celebrates Chanukah. Of course they would, after all they are B.C.!

So are the Flinstones, but they still have Santa Claus! Or so the old Fruity Pebbles commercials claimed.

You hit the nail on the head perfectly with that comment! It explains why I still, even into adulthood, think this is one of the best TV specials of ALL TIME!

Please excuse typos/funny wording; I use speech-recognition that doesn't always recognize!
