Some said it couldn't happen again, many more said it shouldn't, but the Clowns; Various are back for another Rankin/Bass Holiday special on Anime Was (Not) A Mistake! This year, join Dan, Grant, Gabe, and Jonathan, reunited once more by the power of stop-motion and a heavy heaping of ham-fisted morality. They are really scraping the bottom of the barrel this year...but isn't that where the tastiest treats linger? First off, get ready to parumpapumthe closet alcoholic beverage with both The Little Drummer Boy (1968) and The Little Drummer Boy, Book II (1976). This one is way more depressing than you might remember, and the sequel is totally unneeded, but listen to them bells ring! Next , on a trip down memory lane filled with Catholic guilt it's The First Christmas: The Story of the First Christmas Snow (1975). Angela Lansbury is straight from the Vatican, fresh outta the cloister to help the blind orphans see and paint some Christmas Cards. And she's all out of Christmas Cards. Lastly, make sure you have your attention span ready because The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus (1985) makes The Lord of the Rings canon, seem like a coloring book. What lies under the mantle of immortality? Well, you will just have to listen or describe to our Only Fans to see!
