We watch all the old tv specials primarily to mock them, good naturedly of course, there's nothing like giving those old 50s/60s programs the MST3K treatment - especially Rudolph as the attitudes of Donner and Santa really get on our nerves, never mind all the annoying talk of the womenfolk staying home while the menfolk go off and brave the dangers of the unknown. We watch A Christmas Story every year courtesy of TNT's now traditional twenty-four hour marathon of the movie starting Christmas Eve. Other than that, we need to get going on that list!
What's your favorite holiday movie? What do you watch to get you in that Christmas spirit?
