I actually detest a lot of holiday movies and TV shows. Not because I hate the holidays or anything, but because a lot of them are just lame to me. All of those "classics" like Rudolph and Frosty are pretty much un-watchable. And I don't really consider movies that take place during Christmas, but have nothing at all to do with it (Gremlins, Die Hard) as Christmas movies. ANYWAYS...
Movies: Bad Santa Jingle All The Way A Christmas Story TV Shows: 'Twas the Night Before Bumpy - Bump in the Night (Greatest Christmas Special EVER!) Mail Order Bride - Aqua Teen Hunger Force Christmas Who? - SpongeBob SquarePants |

Christmas Specials aren't really memorable for me. Other than the Christmas "Bump in the Night" special and the Scrubs' special...eh, nothing. But there was a video my mum bought for me when I was a kid with different cartoons on it. My favorite one was of a boy who was waiting for his father to come home for Christmas. He started looking at the family Christmas tree and started day dreaming of the decorations coming to life to help him travel across the world to meet up with his father for Christmas. I liked that one a lot...
