My older brother and I grew up watching this on TV and now have it videotaped. Even though I'm 25 and he's 31, we still get it out and watch it every Christmas. Our favorite segment is "The Carol of the Bells." The claymation bells are hilarious, especially the snaggle-toothed one who never gets his cue from the hunchback conductor! It's classic Christmas fun...
shareI LOVE carol of the bells! That would probably be my favorite too. :-D
I man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.

shareI was always a fan of the camels (jazzy "we 3 kings"..... and the walrus ice skating.
This was on a Christmas tape my dad made for me back in the 80's..... 8 full hrs of Christmas kids shows. This was my favorite, and towards the end, so we always fastforwarded it... :%2

I loved the jazzy We 3 Kings, the Carol of the Bells ("Look, it's Dumbbell!"), Joy to the World, and O' Christmas Tree...now I ask you, why can't they make good entertainment like that anymore?

Same here...but our tape's starting to go bad, the picture jumps every so often...I tell you I wish there was a way people could have old videotapes restored, because with the old tapes we have we also have on old commercials, the good ones, the stuff you don't see anymore...and I hate to lose them...add to the fact that it's not easy to come by the Claymation Christmas Special on VHS or DVD...I tell you, of all the things people can do, you'd think they could manage that one.
shareJust look for it on Amazon. That is where I found my copy of it. I about died when I saw they had it. I bought it right on the spot.
"NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!" Cardinal Ximinez
Hahaha I used to be afraid of Quasimodo, so I'd cover my eyes when he was shown, and watch the retarded bell because he made me laugh.
Idiots are fun. No wonder every village wants one.
My favorite segments are: the bells, the walruses, "We Three Kings," and the California Raisins.
