It also means it's time for another list of Christmas video goodies.
So kick back and get ready to enjoy another batch of holiday fun. Oh, and in case you missed last year's list be sure to check out link
So without further ado...
I'm reposting these from last year's list because these are the items most people want to see. If you can only watch a couple of holiday specials, these are the ones to watch. This is the proverbial 'hall of fame' of Christmas programming.

It's just not Christmas without all the cartoon holiday specials. While the titles in this year's list might be a little more obscure than those from link, I'm certain there's something for everyone in this part of the list.

Take a break from the Christmas cartoons and learn a little about Christmas in Yellowstone or about the making of Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas"...

I dig the old-school, black-and-white programs. It's a great way to see how people viewed the holidays a half century ago.

It's easy to poke fun at the crass over-commercialization of Christmas and all its attendant excesses. It's no wonder that once again we have a fine selection of clips that skewer this beloved holiday.

Christmas wouldn't be the same without all the great music. Sure some might say holiday music is hokey, but that's ok. I like hokey. I've even thrown in Adam Sandler's Chanukah Song for good measure (I know, different holiday - but it's still a great tune!).

link included the twin abominations of the Star Wars Holiday Special and Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. Once again, through the help of my fellow Fanpoppers, I present some of the most awful holiday entertainment known to humankind.
