One of the first animated Christmas TV specials in the sixties was “Mr. Magoo’s Christmas Carol,” from 1962. It hasn’t been broadcast in ages, so it isn’t as well known as perennial favorites Charlie Brown, Rudolph, and the Grinch. I don’t have Magoo’s Christmas on video, and I’m wondering how it holds up today. So I’ll embed it here, thanks to YouTube user eboWaxx.
Have a very happy Xmas day, Doug!
I’ve had a VHS of this for years. As a trained teacher, I’ve always felt that this would make a great elementary school Christmas musical. I still love it, and of course, I’ve long since adopted the pet name “Mrs. Magloo” for my own daughter.
