strange animation annoying voices and
very little substance are just a few
things on the list of problems plaguing
this special I’m coming as scheduled
there be no delay it’s business as usual
oh hell
Tuesday number nine the Christmas tree
if you think that you’re not going to be
punished
because you have your mother there
you’re gonna be mighty disappoint in
this special a heartless woman known as
mrs. Matilda runs an orphanage because
she keeps all the donation money to
herself the children are always
miserable when mrs. ma bilder acquires a
new assistant named Judy she along with
Santa tried to finally give the children
a very Merry Christmas the children had
never been so happy they really
developed a special feeling towards Judy
let’s see if we can check off all the
cliches here greedy adults and miserable
children check nothing we could do to
stop that mean witch so that’s what you
think of me someone new comes along and
helps the children check don’t worry ray
we’re gonna do just fine appearance from
Santa Claus yep it’s all here and it’s
all nothing new I hereby proclaim this
tree here I mean mrs. Hopewell our
official City Christmas tree number 8
Shrek the halls tink abandon wait don’t
get it seems DreamWorks has a habit of
giving their most successful franchises
a Christmas special and shrek is no
exception enough I don’t care about any
of this nonsense shrek the halls is your
standard Christmas tale about someone
promising his family a great Christmas
but then things go wrong and it ruins
the holiday spirit donkey will you get
it through your thick head no one here
gives a hoot about Christmas that is
until people find the true meaning of
Christmas and everything is happy again
it’s hard to tell
it’s not a bad story but with the way
the Shrek franchise has clearly retold
fairy tales you think they could have
put a new and more entertaining spin on
this story in this special and I heard
him exclaim as he drove out of sight
smelly Christmas to all and to all a
gross Knight number seven
SpongeBob’s Atlantis SquarePants Asst
of all the people to discover the fabled
city of Atlantis when spongebob and the
gang discover an ancient medallion in
this made-for-tv special they are
whisked off to the lost city so they can
see the oldest bubble ever blown even
plankton tags along so he can steal an
Atlantean weapon or two he said LAN
teams leave a room full of the most
advanced weaponry unguarded
no wonder they got lost despite the
grand adventure setting their trip to
Atlantis is a bit underwhelming with
forced musical numbers and a silly plot
good nigh Atlantis but we really have to
go back to a little town that is the
greatest place I know but at least it’s
more exciting than getting trapped in
the Krusty Krabs air ducts and having a
flashback episode like the Bikini Bottom
residents do in SpongeBob’s truth or
square oh no Patrick stand up we’re
locked in this is gonna spoil the
eleventy-seventh anniversary number 6
frosty returns this ain’t upset kid this
is panic I’m two squirts from being
history the original Frosty the Snowman
cartoon was a light-hearted tale about a
snowman brought to life by a magical hat
happy birthday
that had brought frosty to life however
in this not really a sequel sequel which
was produced by a different production
company and features different
characters and voice actors things
aren’t so light-hearted frosty returns
sees frosty team up with two kids named
Holly and Charles to stop the evil
scientist mr. Twitchell from taking over
the town I’m about to give this town the
greatest gift ever
a winter with no shoveling no slush no
frostbite clean streets and dry
sidewalks by this weekend snow tires
will be ancient history he tries to
accomplish this by inventing an aerosol
spray that melts snow and winning over
beens borough with his invention what is
this stuff well it’s the greatest
invention since microwave pancakes it’s
called summer wheeze remember when
frosty was just about kids having fun in
the snow apparently the people behind
this TV special don’t one friend is a
lot different than no friends one friend
is plenty you’re right especially when
it’s you number 5 Barbie in the
Nutcracker he’s wonderful it seems all
you need to make a Christmas special are
familiar brands and one of the many
holiday inspired stories here we’ll fix
this right up when Barbie’s friend Kelly
is having trouble practicing her ballet
dance barbie tells her the story of the
nutcracker and how a human girl helps a
prince reclaim his throne from the Mouse
King the tree smell like peppermint
and I’ve never seen a sky so blue
soon it will all be a memory if the
Mouse King has his way the computer
animated and motion capture film is just
Barbie reciting a tale we’ve heard many
times before sure they use some of the
classic songs we know from The
Nutcracker but that’s what the real
stage show is for number four grandma
got run over by a reindeer I’d tell you
to put a cork in it your greeting
money-grubber but grandma shouldn’t talk
that way if you’ve heard the song you
pretty much know the plot grandma got
run over by a reindeer walking home from
our house Christmas Eve grandma gets hit
by a reindeer Santa takes her to the
North Pole to help her recover as an
evil cousin tries to take over the
family and sue Santa Claus we guess you
have to take a few liberties if you’re
trying to create a plot around a song
but despite a couple of catchy tunes
including the one about suing Saint Nick
grandma got run over by a reindeer is a
blind story that is quickly forgotten
grandma would have wanted him to number
three cartoon all-stars to the rescue
poem something tells me we’re not in
cartoon territory anymore there’s
nothing wrong with informing case about
the effects of drugs but how you go
about it can make or break something
like this oh yes this but my guess would
be marijuana and unlawful substance used
to experience artificial hi and cartoon
all-stars to the rescue
Cory discovers her brother has been
smoking marijuana and goes on a quest
with different cartoon characters like
Winnie the Pooh and Bugs Bunny to get
him to change his ways much pshh a joint
how much good big attraction I mean how
did you get started anyway I started cuz
I wanted to what do you care it sounds
like a good idea on paper but due to the
end result
we have to assume that someone was on
something when they actually made this
the human brain thanks to the power of
imagination number two Christmas comes
to pack land
Anke now get thrown the power pellets
where many video games got the cartoon
treatment in the 80s and pac-man is no
exception
oh don’t worry Shanna we’ll save
Christmas for you due to the success of
the animated show it was only a matter
of time until Christmas showed up in
pac-man’s hometown what is it I don’t
know
but it’s headed this way gosh race you
sir
we’re going to crash in this special
pack man and his friends must save Santa
after he crashes and discovers his toys
have been stolen don’t worry about me
you’ve gotta save Santa’s toys the
cartoon is pretty standard fare with
Santa not knowing pac-land existed and
pac-man not knowing about Christmas and
everybody learns a lesson in the end
you’ve never heard of Christmas why it’s
the most wonderful time of the year it’s
the season of giving and receiving a
time of peace on earth and goodwill
towards man and what’s the lesson in
question find a better Christmas special
to watch just think of the millions of
deserving children around the world who
won’t get their Christmas presents you
open your mouths instead of your heart
before we reveal our top pick here are a
few honorable or in this case this
honorable mentions there’s an Christmas
shopping
Alvin’s going to spread joy dad dad no
you don’t see see this is more than mere
sock their place to keep your feet you
got a here full heel you got a toe for
toe put them on in the daytime and
they’re good to go yeah but that’s
because because you go to Monster High
where you can be yourself freaky flaws
and all
that’s why we need to welcome the new
students with open arms
number one he-man and Shera a Christmas
special
it’s a Christmas tree and to celebrate
Christmas oh what’s Christmas everybody
knows what Christmas is I don’t when you
get lots of presents
when children become stranded on Eternia
it is up to keyman and Shira not only to
protect the children but also to make
sure that they have the perfect
Christmas I’ve got an idea
Christmas isn’t for several days yet but
the twins birthday is tomorrow why don’t
we combine their birthday celebration
with a big big Christmas party
what it first sounds like the best
Christmas special ever quickly falls
flat when you realize that it’s just
another holiday cash in on an already
famous cartoon
we expected he-man and Shera ought to
fight bad guys not to teach us the
spirits of Christmas well I think you’re
feeling the Christmas spirit Skeletor it
makes you feel good make them fight a
giant robotic Santa created by Skeletor
that’s what we want for christmas
