The Christmas Collection

This DVD brought back the old memories of Christmas celebrations I enjoyed as a child through the use of black and white cartoons, old movies, songs, and Christmas TV specials. The most entertaining of the entire collection is Ozzie and Harriett. These folks can still bring laughter and fun to your heart. The collection can be enjoyed by the young and old and will take many down memory lane. Grab a copy for a stocking stuffer or for a that "special" group that hangs out during the holidays and complains that they're bored. It will liven up any snowy day and keep 'em coming back for more!

This collection of Christmas videos is actually better than what I thought it would be. All of the titles in this collection appear to be public domain material (no copyright) but that doesn't diminish the enjoyment you will get from them.
The tv episodes are probably the ones you will enjoy the most and include The Beverly Hillbillies, Ozzie & Harriet, Jack Benny and a Liberace Christmas. The Christmas specials are mostly short cartoons related to Christmas but I wouldn't consider them tv specials. The films in the collection are ones that are seldom seen.
If you like watching offbeat material, give this one a chance. It is worth watching mainly for the rarity of the material. One caveat. The film quality of most of these have degraded extensively and if that annoys you, you should probably pass.

my kids and us enjoy watching those dvds around xmass time. every year. very nice collection to have for xmass time.

First I must say my deepest sympathy goes to anyone who is disappointed with this collection.

I do not believe the review by "Mysterious Mr Wong" can be improved, but perhaps I can expand it a bit.

Disc I, without a doubt offers humor and nostalgia.

Disc II, is a windfall for fans of animated cinemaphotography. For them, the Jack Frost title noted by "MMW" as, "(Not the famous version)" is an Ub Iwerks, classic ComiColor Cartune. With a little Googling you may discover that Iwerks, a fantastic innovative animator was the creator of Mickey Mouse, it wasn't Walt Disney. Several Fleischman productions are included on this disc too.

Disc III, the movies are excellent Christmas fun. In my opinion, "Beyond Tomorrow" aka "Beyond Christmas" could easily rate with "The Bishop's Wife", "A Christmas Story" or "It's a Wonderful Life" as a forever classic. "Miracle on 34th Street", was first aired on TV, Dec. 14, 1955 on "The 20th Century-Fox Hour". A review of that may be found at The Internet Movie Database (IMDb).

If you buy this, enjoy!

The Christmas collection has over 13 hours of Christmas entertainment. It contains everthing from TV shows from the past, such as Ozzie & Harriet and The Jack Benny Show, to TV classics like Rudolph and Jack Frost. There are also several movies, Miracle On 34th Street being my favorite. I think anyone who loves Christmas will find several shows that bring back memories and help to make new ones.
