This week: A Claymation Christmas Celebration

This primetime special aired December 21st 1987. My entire family (being big California Rasins fans) were glued to the set that night. I still remember going into school the next day and talking about it.

Here’s my favorite 2 sequences of the special:

I gotta say that the bell sequence totally holds up. Did you ever see this when it aired? What was your favorite part? Have you even heard of this before?
