A Christmas Must-Watch List








Growing up, before we had cable TV, we had 2 channels.  CBC and CTV.  Not much there....and even when we did finally have Cable TV, there were just a few extra channels.

Which naturally meant you were a slave to whatever was on TV.

That was not necessarily a bad thing.  We can have 150+ channels, and still there is nothing worth watching!

At any rate, the following list of TV Shows are on my Christmas Must-Watch list.  Not that I get around to each of them....but I do try.  The kids are tired of many of them.  But I like tradition...and I certainly like the memories of my childhood....so I do watch most of them....even if I watch alone..

Charlie Brown Christmas came out the year I was in Grade 3.  I quickly organized a Christmas play for our class, being the "Manager".  I mean, what kid actually does something like that?  It convinces me to this day that I am ultimately strange.




Yes, the abominable snowman scared the daylights out of me....but I've come to love Bumbles.


















My Dad's favourite Christmas movie.




















No Christmas is complete without watching this.













Even a Grinch can have his heart changed.
















Amazing story of what your life is worth.



I was 17 when this was first on TV.  I love the story and what Christmas can do to a soul...if you let it.
