Good idea lost in the noise

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

I was lucky enough to have done all of the music for this production. It was one of the most fun and rewarding projects I have ever worked upon.I am pleased to say that it was finally released on DVD. I am not thrilled to say that the audio quality of the DVD version is of very good quality. It sounds as if it was dubbed from an old mono soundtrack, and certainly does not hold up to even the original television dubs (and certainly not the original masters that I have).But that said, I truly enjoy seeing the comments, and feel very gratified that so many continue to name this special as one of their favorites. As many of my family members (including my two daughters) sang parts on this project, it is especially fun to see and hear again.There is talk of a 25th reunion of some of the cast, and perhaps even a concert of some of the music (including the record we did from this for Atlantic records). We'll see...In any case- thanks again for the kind comments.Patric J. Miller

This truly is one of the Christmas Specials I cherished not only as a child but as an adult as well. It went forgotten in my mind until a couple of years ago when I started my collection of Christmas movies to get me into the "spirit". It was a little costly ($50) because I had to special order it but I definitely think it is a must have for anyone who remembers it from their childhood. Not only is the animation fantastic but is great for the whole family and holds true to the Christmas spirit. Great songs and also quite funny. The only downside to this special is the sound quality ( original stereo from TV broadcast and the fact it is only 24 minutes long. All in all a great collector's item.

All the songs on this show are great I really like the Singing Camels that are in the first song and I like how the last song has the California rasins! I have an old tape from when this aired on TV and my family can not go a single year without playing it because my dad can not get enough out of those Camels! I wish they would have this available on DVD at stores like Wal-Mart so it will be easier to get them when the old video tapes wear out.Involving that bell ringing thing I like how that conductor uses a sling shot to make that one bell hit the right note! i also like how those two walruses are ice skating and using penguins as bowling pins when they skate!Those things are the funny things that you will get a laugh out of on this show!

Finally a Christmas special that doesn't inspire a gag reflex. Well done animation and story that makes you just want to wassail. The camels really rock as do the California Raisins. Music is original with redone Christmas favorites. Find the kids and a big lump of clay and enjoy! (along with some waffles:)
