No Lampoon`s Christmas Vacation? Luckily I have it on DVD, still the best IMO

 

[BMC]

@Fenway I love you.

If you have kids born between probably 2000 and 2003, Phineas and Ferb's Christmas Special is about as good as it gets among newer Christmas specials.

Mine are 19 and 16 now and we've already talked about when we're going to watch it together.

 

[Gee Wally]

I watched the new version of The Grinch the other night on Netflix.

It was visually stunning.

 

[Fenway]

This restaurant in Toronto was featured in a classic scene of what holiday classic?

 

[Bruinaura]

Rudolph and Charlie Brown are my all time favorites.

I think I was in my 30s before I saw It's a Wonderful Life for the first time.

Daisy thanks you for including the National Dog Show.

 

[Aeroforce]

I bought the Charlie Brown Holiday DVD 3-pack years ago and have had the Thanksgiving special playing, primarily for the music.

The Christmas special will always be Vince Guaraldi's piece de resistance, but his music for the Thanksgiving special is equally stunning.

Looks like the only place in town to get Christmas duck if the turkey doesn't work out.

Im watching it now...

 

[Alicat]

My Top 5:

1. Charlie Brown
2. Rudolph
3. The Year Without a Santa Claus
4. The Grinch
5. Life and Adventures of Santa Claus

 

[Glove Malfunction]

@Fenway , you missed one. When is Die Hard on?

A Christmas Story is my guess and I only guess that because I have a good friend who lives in that area and a few years ago he sent me a pic at Christmas time saying he`s sitting in an iconic restaurant made famous by a movie filming eating Chinese but I don`t think that`s what this place offers?

I love this. You're never too old to watch a kids show. I still watch the SpongeBob Christmas special (the first one....not that terrible clay episode) and a Rugrats Christmas Special. It brings back memories.
