Classic TV Christmas Specials

I remember it like it was yesterday. Hearing the CBS intro music for their holiday specials like Frosty, The Grinch, Rudolph and more. I used to wait all year to watch those specials around Christmas. As if they were actually going to change plots or something I was GLUED to every frame of animation. I wonder if kids feel the same way today. With all the "On Demand" channels they really don't have to wait if they don't want to. I guess its just another of those outdated traditions that we have to hold close to our heart while the next generation develops their own. I can hear them now.....I used to keep Rudolph on my DVR all year and put a security code on it so no one could open it and watch it until December 24th! LOLOLOL.
As I sit here in my living room looking out at the 6" of snow we got on Christmas Day (A record Christmas Day snowfall for central NC by the way) I am reminded of how special this time of the year is for kids... the memories are still with me today. So in case you need a little "memory jogging"...here ya go.

Oh and make sure to listen to our upcoming shows. hoping for Stefanie Powers and maybe Peter Marshall.

How excited are we that Susan Olsen a.k.a. Cindy Brady is stopping by on Tuesday December 21st just in time for the holidays! Make sure you bring your Brady questions as we go with Susan back to the early 70's and hear what the behind-the-scenes truths were about Americas favorite sparkly clean family where all family issues are solved in 30-minutes. If I'm lucky maybe she will let me borrow the pigtails. :) Ok that was stupid. Hee Hee.

A HORRIBLE WAY TO BEGIN A DECADE

I will never forget that night in 1980 30 years ago today when I heard Howard Cosell make the announcement during Monday Night Football.
Just 16 years before, America was invaded by The Beatles and was taken by storm. Hard to believe that one insane fan could change rock-and-roll forever. I choose to remember him other ways.
