Also A Christmas Story, A Christmal Carol, Muppet Christmas Carol and Miracle on 34th Street.

For me, Christmas is not Christmas until I see 'The Nutcracker' - preferrably live, which I'll be doing this Friday - 'Backadder's Christmas' (I cry with laughter over this one!), 'A Christmas Carol' (with George C. Scott), original 'Grinch', 'Charlie Brown Christmas', 'The Snowman' and 'Santa Claus is Coming to Town'.Julia Phillips Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15392455413201190775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5552020989914140175.post-31393504702675093772008-12-08T08:57:00.000-05:002008-12-08T08:57:00.000-05:00I always watch Trading Places for Christmas and fe...I always watch Trading Places for Christmas and feel it weird to watch it any other time around the year ;-) I also watch an old Danish tv-series from the late 1970'es which has nothing to do with Christmas, but that it the time of year I watch it, so it always remind me of Christmas.Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041866872571178817noreply@blogger.com
