I never saw that. But I did see the Flintstone Christmas, Charlie Brown Christmas, the Grinch Who Stole Christmas and Frosty the Snowman among some others when I was Red’s age.

Wasn’t that one in which Mr Magoo played Scrooge in an adaptation of A Christmas Carol?

I just saw Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol a few days ago. It finally came back on tv. It’s still wonderful. :-)

Seen them all. Anyone remember the Noelco Santa? When I saw him I knew the days to Christmas.

The “danger exhaust” hole with Rover’s tail out the back is priceless! Thanks Brian.

You can tell this isn’t set in modern times, or Red would never be allowed such a suffocation hazard.

Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol will be on again Christmas eve on the CW network. Unlike the hatchet job done by NBC last time it was shown, CW has a nicely restored copy complete with the often cut “play within a play” transitions.
It was the very first animated Christmas t.v. special (even before Rudolph) and features music by the songwriting team Jule Styne and Bob Carroll (of Funny Girl fame).

Is that the same empty NASA box that you unwrapped last Christmas, Red? I remember that you were thrilled as you opened it. Imagination goes a long, long way. Happy cruising, boys.LOVE & HUGS TO DEAREST RED & ROVER

Red needs to see the US Space and Rocket Center. It is all decorated this year.
