OK, so I've got kids, but most people have a favorite. What's yours?

Compassion is the sometimes fatal capacity for feeling what it is like inside somebody else's skin. It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too. - Frederick Buechner
If society prospers at the expense of the intangibles, how can it be called progress?
Ok, gonna sound a bit sad, but I haven't seen any of these shows. It's not a case of bah! humbug! I own miracle on 42nd street and It's a wonderful life I guess I just missed these.

Tartangal,
No need to be sorry. If I had my choice, I would rather watch either one of those. They are Great Movies. But I have to add "A Christmas Carol" to the list. Especially the one with Patrick Stewert.
A Christmas Carol, with Alistair Sim. B&W or Technicolour, I don't care. Just as long as I see that fellow on Christmas Eve, I'm good.
I watched The Nightmare Before Christmas last night on CBC. This will be a classic one day people. Believe it.
Which one had the Land of the Misfit Toys?

"I am a Canadian by birth, but I am a Highlander by blood and feel under an obligation to do all I can for the sake of the Highlanders and their literature.... I have never yet spoken a word of English to any of my children. They can speak as much English as they like to others, but when they talk to me they have to talk in Gaelic."

I'm the one saying "MERRY CHRISTMAS, CHARLIE BROWN!"

May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.
I've only seen Grinch out of all on the list, but I can't really say I care for it that much. However, I'd probably rather watch any of these instead of "The Christmas Story," which TNT has the gall to show 24/7 for about two weeks during the holiday season. (what I'd like to do to TNT) Jennie

Raymond Briggs' 'The Snowman' - with Aled Jones singing the theme song.... 'Something in the Air'. This was released when my daughter was a baby... she has forced us to watch it every year since
I love Charlie Brown's Christmas Story. Snoopy of course if my all time favorite character. When he gets in his own world on top of his house and goes to shoot down the red barion I can't help but laugh! And I've seen it dozen's of times. My next favorite is Chevy Chase's Christmas Vacation. My whole family can tell you the lines before they say them...That is too much! But fun!
