    I haven't gone that route yet. A bunch of cardboard boxes that all look the same. I need to organize. I did fine a box with a bunch of christmas stuff in it. My Rankin/Bass, some movies (Scrooged, etc), Emmit Otter, and a bargain bin Mill Creek set full of badly transferred christmas cheer! :D

    I'm still trying to find my holiday stuff somewhere underneath all the non-holiday junk in my place. :blink:

    I put on a Fly Nun the other day since I've been stalled on season 1 for years and years and it turned out to be a very pleasant Christmas episode. I said damn, I could have watched that last month! lol

    Maybe the edit button disappears for older posts? I had an edit button just now in a thread about sound bars. EDIT: and I was about to.... well, you know. :cool: EDIT #2: just wanted to add that my posts above this one do not have the edit icon.

    I think she does enjoy it but she's just ready to move on to the next thing. Plus, my 2 nieces are about 12 or so and still love the whole Christmas thing. According to my mom, they are at the stage where Santa is still real because there will be more presents. :D

    Not over yet? lol My big sis takes her tree and all decore down the day after. Although it may get delayed this year since I broke a part of her house. But she won't let me pay for it. What a fun Christmas!! :P

    Watched a few minutes of A Christmas Story 2. I think I'll watch the rest when it isn't Christmas. lol Santa Claus is Comin to Town. Could be the best of Rankin/Bass. Extremely well done. From the kids letters to Santa being answered by a wonderful Fred Astaire to the very end when the...

    ^^^ the DVD has commentary as well, no Chase though. I listened to a little bit of it, intros and a little bit of the first part should be interesting. Home Alone 2. Turns into a cartoon in the final 3rd. Lacks the originality of the first film (not a whole lot new here). But I like it...

    Christmas Vacation. Hopefully I'll get this replaced with the blu ray in time for next viewing. One of the essential viewings along with A Christmas Story, and others. Doesn't get much funnier than this at Christmas. Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer. My fav special. Been watching this...

    Scrooged. I was thinking Gene Wilder would have been interesting in the Murray role. But Murray is terrific. Lots to like about this... the odd unraveling at the end threw me off first viewing. But has since become a fav. Everything holds up extremely well. hard to believe this almost 25...

    Rich Little's A Christmas Carol. The guy does most of these voices better than the real people do. Seriously, his Carson is better than CARSON'S CARSON! Been watching this since about 1980 or something. Always a joy. Emmit Otter's Jug Band Christmas. I realized that the guy from...

    I think I missed Benson. Barely watched SOAP originally. I have SOAP now but I've been watching it very slowly. I like it a lot, just too much other stuff I choose instead. Once done with All in the Family (on Season 9 now) SOAP would be a good one to replace it. I think SOAP was one of...

    I kind of remember that Jeffersons with George as the black Santa. I know there was a All in the Family with George's brother dressed as Santa and Archie had a problem with it. lol No Christmas for me yesterday either. I'd planned to devour a pomegranate over Christmas Vacation or Scrooged...

    Aw man... I stand down. :D that is a shame. I love the Cousin Eddie character. But Quaid went to the cuckoo's nest.

    I might place Eight Crazy Nights as the worse holiday thing I've ever seen. I keep meaning to watch it again to see if I missed something. Frosty Returns is like It's a Wonderful Life in comparison. No Christmas stuff for me lately. Just too busy. Man, I hate the busy part of xmas...

    I've been watching AYBS? so when I get to that one I'll know! lol I was actually very excited about the prospect of a Christmas Steptoe and Son episode, and was so disappointed. It ended up being very good anyway. With a scene similar to what Redd Foxx did "I'm coming Elizabeth!" Speaking...

    Watched Steptoe and Son "The Holiday" thinking, well you know... :( Forgot that "holiday" over there meant something different from where I'm at. Oh well... fun episodes anyway. Arthur. 1981. Has some Christmas stuff in it. Haven't seen this in YEARS. Watched it a lot over the years...

    Grinch (animated version). Great, as usual. My dog Honey Bun enjoyed the songs. She's quite a singer... The Elf & Mr. Little (from the Mill Creek holiday set), Funky marionettes. Oh, save us Gerry Anderson and Jim Henson!! The Year Without a Santa Claus. My big sis's fav. It's...

    Nightmare before Christmas. Been while, and a bit sleepy before it ended, but not the fault of the Pumpkin King. Lovely little ride, brilliant idea. The mayor character always made me uneasy, with the alternating faces. It's the one that stays inanimate on the back. lol, I bought all the...

    All in the Family. "The Bunkers go West". Meathead and Gloria are supposed to visit for Christmas but it doesn't quite work out that way. Great scene when Archie brings home a tree. But my fav is when Stephanie doesn't want to leave the house and Archie uses a method he once used when Gloria...

    Seems like Rifftrax guys did one for the SW special. I remember liking it without better since it's so nostalgic.

    All in the Family. "Bogus Bills" It's Christmas, so the usuals come out... this time someone is passing bad 10 dollar bills at Archie's Place. I liked the ending. And the scene with Arch and Stephanie at the bar was well done. "Can I have a beer?" I think they were writing pretty good for...

    A Christmas Carol is my mother's favorite, book and films. She watches those YEAR ROUND! :P Got another from my stack watched. Slooooow going.. Anyway, it's A Passion of the Christ. Most have seen this once. This is my second viewing, first on a blu ray I picked up Black Friday years...

    Finally got around to a Christmas movie. Home Alone. "Kevin" just warms your heart when he flashes that smile. Really enjoyed seeing this again. Spider on face remains my favorite part. Excellent fem-scream there. :D

    I'm Dec 13th. My mom always managed to make it fun, even though I'm now 46. Honestly, she just told me "We'll do your birthday when you come up to see The Hobbit with me." :D
