The Small One counts, right? Saw that one again not too long ago. It's still great.

I like all of those **** Rankin-Bass films too, for nostalgia's sake.

Real answer: my family always watches A Muppet Family Christmas, and I try to make it a point to watch It's a Wonderful Life every year.

I watched the 'Santa Claus' episode of MST3K earlier (the one with Santa fighting the devil, not the Martians). That's usually what I put on whilst wrapping presents, only I had just the three presents to wrap this year, and they're all done already.

Watched 'It's a Wonderful Life' and 'Scrooged' at Christmas Eve family party. Not, like, intently------------idly, whilst playing cribbage and engaging in conversation like a real person.

...kind of forgot how great 'Scrooged' is. I'd grown accustomed to watching family-style Christmas movies with the kids. Not much in 'Scrooged' for a six-year-old, right.

I didn't watch any this year, just kind of glanced at some that were kind of okay in the background. Aside from what has already been mentioned, Jingle All The Way and Christmas Vacation.

I'm not sure I have ever seen It's a Wonderful Life. Before my time.
To me, you are the teacher in the Charlie Brown cartoon.
