Tonight, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" was on television. You know, there are two television shows that really have a Christmas meaning to me - "The Grinch" (as referenced above) and "A Charlie Brown's Christmas". For some reason, these two shows really touch my heart. They are funny for sure, but there is something more. They have certainly stood the test of time, haven't they?
As far as movies go, "Miracle on 34th Street", "White Christmas", and "A Christmas Carol" (with Alec Guinness as Scrooge) are my favorites. They speak Christmas to me. Nothing made in the last 20 years seems to do it for me at all.
So, I asked the young adults here what were their favorite Christmas shows/movies. The only I've heard come back is "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" with Chevy Chase. Ugh.
Anyway, it does not seem as if real Christmas Classics are being made much anymore. Why not?

Have you not yet seen the movie Polar Express? I'd call that classic!
