The Christmas season is officially upon us ... Tuesday night is the holiday broadcast of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
I semi-watch the show while I'm doing other things. Every song and most of the lines are engraved in my memory, and when the line "Bumbles bounce!" comes around, I mouth it with perfect syncopation.
Sure, I'm watching other holiday shows, like Hallmark movies and Drunk History Christmas. However, nothing beats such wonderful seasonal classics as Charlie Brown Christmas, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. It's almost like a full contact sport: one channel, another channel, two channels at once!
The Christmas season is upon us. Do NOT lose the television remote control!
