I Hey everybody! I thought I'd start what I think might be a fun topic for the holidays!
What is your favorite Holiday Christmas Special?
Well first, lets rock out with what I think are the absolute best Christmas Rock songs! Here is the classic song by the band WIZZARD (headed by Roy Wood, who, along with Jeff Lynne, formed ELO, and then he headed off to make the under appreciated band WIZZARD!)
Lovely video and lots of fun!

... and Christmas just would be the same without Tom Petty and his awesome Christmas Rock N Roll!
Hey, he even does Christmas AWESOME!!

and now, onto my pic for the best Christmas special!
Red Skelton's "Freddie the Freeloader Christmas Special"
This was first on HBO in 1981 (I believe) and was shown at least for a few years and was dropped ... sadly. This link is to the better of the uploads of this special, but please note that it is in 5 parts (it was originally a one hour special, the last two parts are the parts with Vincent). This starred Red, Imogene Coca and the wonderful Vincent Price! I LOVED finding this on you tube! Ahhhh, those more innocent days when this type of stuff was on during the holidays!
Enjoy

So now, what is your favorite TV show from the past? Please give us a link (if it's on You Tube or some other sight) so we can enjoy these lost but much loved treasures! ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Happy Holidays!!!!!!!!!!!!!
