Good article, loved both those as a kid. Still love Rudolph.

Frosty however....

The kids are old enough to watch A Christmas Story this year. A greater Christmas tale has yet to be told.

Quite true. And that chubby-cheeked scamp was as equally convincing in the low-budget chiller Death Valley as he was in this.

"The Character Effect" is the reason The Year Without a Santa Claus has staying power. Heat Miser & Cold Miser--those are the only reasons to see that special.

Someday, I want Rudolph to stand up on Christmas night and say, "You want me to guide your sleigh? With my nose? The nose that has heaped untold scorn and ridicule upon me for so many years? That nose? Guide your own goddamned sleigh, fat boy!"

I've wondered about this too often myself, along with why the Charlie Brown Christmas special is pretty much the only Charlie Brown special worth watching. Also: Why are there no classic Halloween songs besides "Monster Mash"?
