Did You Know Tuesday

Did you know that the holiday television special Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer made its TV debut on December 6, 1964? That’s over 45 years ago. Wow! Produced by Rankin/Bass, this classic has aired every year since then, making it the longest running holiday special and is only one of four holiday specials released in the 1960s still airing during the holiday season to this day. The other three are: A Charlie Brown Christmas, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and Frosty the Snowman.

My favorite December special is another Rankin/Bass production, The Year Without a Santa Claus. You know the one...with Heatmiser and Coldmiser.

I'm too much.
