I like the South Park episode where they are singing christmas songs.

I also like the first episode of The Simpsons.

The Santa Clause that was released in 1994. By THE best representation of what the idea of Santa and all that could ever be. Kids as elves? BRILLIANT! :D

The one that stands out in my mind the most is the stop-motion Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer special. It's been years since I've seen it, but I'd like to watch it again.

There was a claymation Christmas special that I liked. The hosts were " Bob and Ray" as claymation dinosaurs I think. Anyway it was traditional Christmas songs with a jazzy soul influence and nice artwork.

and I never get tired of the Grinch-I love Dr. Suess

I watched "The Hogfather" tonight and enjoyed it, that is probably one.

Also in shows that I have enjoyed the Christmas special, I will definetly mention Toradora which has a marvelous episode, I was useing an avatar on a different site from it.

Is that the Hogfather from Terry Pratchett? I only read that this last year and I didn't realize there was a film adaption. Cool, I'll look it up.
