Christmas Theme

You're in the mood to get Christmassy. Which books do you read, movies or tv shows/episodes do you watch? Bonus if they're a bit obscure. :p

Last year I watched the Hogswatch movie. ie, from the Terry Pratchett books. Death takes over as the equivalent in Discworld of Father Christmas. (I forget what he's called but he's part pig).

I like to watch the 'Bloopy' episode of Maid Marian and Her Merry Men (it's called 'The Big Baby').

The Father Ted Christmas Special is pretty good.

I also watch Muppet Christmas Carol almost every year haha

He's called the Hogfather! I loved that one. :)

Muppet Christmas Carol (sometimes I watch it in the summer, to be honest); It's a Wonderful Life; Blackadder (Christmas special or otherwise); often The Sound of Music. None of those are very obscure I admit. From now on I'll be watching the Community stop motion episode every Christmas, too! Does that count?

"Rudolph and the Island of Misfit Toys".

I watch The Lion in Winter every year at Christmas :)

The Bones S1 Christmas episode "The Man in the Fallout Shelter"; the X-Files Christmas episode "How the Ghosts Stole Christmas"; the Colbert Report Christmas special "A Colbert Christmas"; and the *original* versions of "Miracle on 34th Street" and "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (the remakes are not to be spoken of in either case.)

Also the Muppet Christmas Carol. :D
