a Charlie Brown Christmas.

From childhood, I always loved "Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer" (and the music) but TBH I haven't seen it in a very long time.

As an adult, I've really come to love old time radio broadcasts that focus on the holidays, especially Jack Benny and the spinoff show from that, the Phil Harris Show. Jack Benny is so hilarious. The writing on that program is brilliant, some of the best I've ever heard. I wish there were some books about every aspect of that program, some bios on the people, maybe a book of scripts. I'm sure at the time those programs were popular there was a lot more info, but it's been lost to history or hard to find.
