[Shadowcat107]

That's very sad that the donkey lost his mother. Happy New Ear! Year!

[astralaris]

As posted, you can purchase this on DVD from Amazon as part of a set - either as part of "The Year Without a Santa Claus / Nestor, The Long-Eared Christmas Donkey / Rudolph's Shiny New Year" OR "Life And Adventures Of Santa Claus/Nestor The Christmas Donkey" If you want it alone - it is available on VHS (yes, VHS) on Amazon. As for the DVDs, the other films it comes bundled with are good too, despite the criticisms here. Good hunting!

[5hulmes]

Omg. I seriously started cryin watching the part where his mom showed up from heaven,! And the music was sad 2.

[purplespottedbunny]

Jeez D:

I'm just watching this one for the first time... the part where his mom died was so sad... and then when she appeared to him in the storm I totally lost it. Damn you, sad animal stories! T_T

[jshkendra]

nestor did good.

[bluegrassman776]

they didn't show any of these on abc this year

[auntydale]

@bluegrassman776

Here in Hawaii the ABC Family Channel on cable played it a couple of times. I cried again. I cried just now showing this to my co-worker.

[iloveoompa08]

im only 23 years old and im bawling :'(

[WonderfulAkari]

Nestor and Bambi can start a club

[emilie2156]

lol i like how the bear has to get scared by a spider before he's nice to Nestor

[TheDanyellebrooke]

Omg i didn't know his mommy died. This is my first time watching this and hearing about it. Omg awe no! "ears Nestor" ); that's sooooo sad. Poor donkey. That bastard threw him out, he can't help if his ears are like that. That's the way God made him. Stupid jerk, throw him out there in the cold like that

[dotmacis]

I bawl EVERY time I watch the scene where Nestor's mother dies, no matter how many times I watch this ... :o(

[DimeraFan28]

I think that Nestor reminded me so much of Bambi the deer losing his mom.

[petermullinvideos]

Nestor's mom dying made me cry, which made me think of MY mom dying, which will not happen in a long time. But I swear, when the heaven song came on. I have the courage to keep going. Rock on, Christmas specials.

[Skyntalor]

this is depressing as hell!

[punxrider4]

OMG HIS MOM DIES!

[sjcobra84]

Nestor's mother passing on, That was so sad!! I remember this story when I was a kid, Thanx heaps

[nosscrr]

nice song

[AgeOfGrace1]

thanks for the video - I just watched it with my 4 yr old granddaughter. Believe it or not I had never seen it before. We really liked it.

[galnhus56]

At 4:42 Nestor looks funny! :)

Merry Christmas!

[HouCuseChickie95]

yup- as I predicted when watching part 1- I'd soon be crying at my desk at work watching this. thx again for posting

[jaydog7575]

I cry like a baby when his mom comes from heaven to guide him through the storm. She died to one day help him deliver the son of GOD. He was born imperfect, but his imperfection was planned by GOD. Awesome story! "Your ears can do a wondrous thing no other ears can do! The sounds they hear will guide you on a path that's straight and true! And you must save another as your mother once saved you. How touching

[xartruche]

Wonderful storie!

[midnightprincessful]

Oh my God. I watched this for the first time on ABC Family and i cried my eyes out when Nestor's mom died. I still cry watching this on you tube. It's soooooooo sad.

[lauranmary]

One of my favorites. A lost classic. Still crying as I watch it. Great Christmas memories :)

[icandiilove]

oh god i lost it ):

[latinguy67]

i remember this cartoon as a kid and it was a tear-jerker then. i'm 42 now and it still brings a tear to my eye.

[latinguy67]

@ 9:30, I lost it. I remember seeing this as a kid and it was unbelievably sad. I avoided this cartoon for yrs because it really is quite the tear-jerker.

[davidberry1972]

You would have to be very cold hearted not to cry when Nestor's mom died.

[GialloHorror]

@davidberry1972 The first time I saw this, I could barely keep it together, when his mom died.

I was 28 lol.

[Haroldlover101]

I cried for 30 minutes after I watched this. Nestor's mom risked her life to save him.....so sad!

[phillygrl69]

I cried as a lil girl....I STILL cry....

[StefanoFan27]

This Part was cut from "ABC Family's 25 Days Of Christmas".

[nickzgirl1]

@StefanoFan27 i was so mad when they cut this, its my fave. x-mas movie

[donkeylongears]

sadder than Scrooge?

[dwane04]

This is the saddest thing I have ever seen in my entire life. I am 23 and my heart breaks everytime I see this.

[tuber1019]

i agree. i BAWL everytime. its so sad that i feel like it shouldnt be a christmas story.

[meowtigeress19]

Q.Q this part always get me *sniffles*

[adhfan75]

Oh his always gets to me too. Not only was he made fun of for his 'disability' but he also lost his mother! :'(

[3dartistguy]

I remmember crying when I saw this as a child. It upset me horribly.

[grumpybear93]

I love this part. It makes me cry everytime i watch this

[picassoui]

i can see the angel is on drugs look at her eyes

[Tatanyablue]

This has always been my favorite christmas show. Love the story and definetly love the adorable Nestor!

[JillHill7]

man! this is some bitter-sweet stuff! it's up there with Bambi and The Land Before Time...both of their moms die so their child can live. T_T

[Disneyfan82]

Seeing Nestor cry for his mother like that brings tears to my eyes. It hurts to lose someone you love when he/she sacrifices their life to save yours. Why must some channels ban good shows just because they use the word God in them? Isn't the birth of Jesus Christ supposed to be what Christmas is all about?

[Darkbohamit]

Aw poor nestor =(

[maddy1001m]

oh nester. hes so cute. ;( poor nester

[PhantomLuver944]

I always cry here...*sniffles* Thank you so much for putting this movie up

[Moonstone2732]

That part always makes me cry.

[steadybeau]

If that doesn't make someone cry, then there's someone wrong with them! That's about the saddest thing I've ever seen in a story. Poor Nestor. His mom died trying to save him and then he's stuck with his long ears and no mom....

[ridgewoodart]

I remember as a kid crying my eyes out when Nester's mommy died. Watching this now, tears are just streaming down my face! My goodness! This was and still is one of my favourite Christmas programs. Thank you SO MUCH for posting this.  It brings back so many memories and I hope I can find a copy of this to show my son. ;) This is a great story about individual unique talents and looking different has its pluses! A great story for kids to watch!! :)

[donkeylongears]

If you want this on DVD, try finding "The Year Without a Santa Claus" dvd. It should be an extra.

[Jangobadass]

No Way! This needs to be it's own disc, not share one with the hammy Miser Bros. and that lousy New Year's special!

[donkeylongears]

I agree. I think a proper remake is in order also since it's so short. Rankin/Bass are still alive 'hmmm'

[TsukiHana146]

@ridgewoodart

I know! This part makes me so sad! :'(

[Desert645]

Aww!!!!!! That was so sad! :(

[hopepren]

Oh, I haven't seen this in years! Thank you so much for posting it. I'm now in tears, but they are good tears.

[msgordon71]

I remember this being my favorite Christmas special when I was a kid. I cry even now when I see it. This was truly a special show for everyone. I love it and I like giving this video as a gift to all the young children I know. This should be watched by everyone to enjoy.

[donkeylongears]

God Bless you havinfun

[Broken2bits]

Of all the "Christmas Specials" this is the most heart breaking of all. I can remember watching it as a child. And crying my eyes out. Now I am 40, and still cry everytime I see it.

[phillygrl69]

Me too! You took the words right out of my mouth! I wish they still made christmas specials like this and the others....but out of all of them...this is my favorite. And yes..it STILL brings tears to my eyes.

[KhleoKisser93]

I can't wait until ABC FAMILY airs this again.

God Bless us all!

[kidGoKu1001]

me six

[donkeylongears]

Me three

[8x13Wolf]

Me four.

[Ghoastmask]

Me Five

[Violetta4444]

me too

[desertrose777]

Every Christmas I watch this and promise myself that I won't cry. I have never been able to NOT cry at this movie. I cried watching this just now. But, I love it anyway.

[havinfun1968]

Oh My God, you are not alone. I'm a former Combat Marine. Had 11 men lost, my sister passed away when she was 10, and I was 8, and still I never shed a tear. But this damn film does something to me that I can't help but cry. No greater sacrafice than to sacrafice your life for another to finish an assignment of good. Sad we can't put these films on air cause God for bid they use the word "God" I hope they know what they are doing when they have to answer for that. God Bless you my friend....

[desertrose777]

reply to havinfun1968: Actually this is on every christmas on the FamilyChannel, that's when I watch this. But, yes, to have your own mother give up her life for yours is an experience I never want to go through. Thank you for your comment, I'm just glad that I'm not the only one that sheds tears in this movie. And God bless you all as well. :D

[havinfun1968]

I do know it's on the Family Chanel but this use to be part of CBS when we were little (well I'm 40). It was a double feature with "The Little Drummer Boy". Now God forbid we mention any of this. Do you know above the Supreme Courts door, ingraved in the pillars is Moses and all of the leaders of the world are facing him. Why does Congress start every session with a Prayer, paid for by tax payers? I hope we protect this. I'd give my life for that, as I fought as a Marine, now dying of Cancer. GB

[desertrose777]

havinfun1968: The world has become very strange. I'm only 20, and I can see that it would take a lot more than Congress to change to way of things. I am not a person that has a lot of knowledge of politics or of religion, although, I believe in God.

But, I pray for better things, and I hold onto that faith. May God be with you. :)

[phillygrl69]

You are so right! I will be 40 next May...and I remember like it was yesterday when they showed these specials on CBS...I for one feel blessed to have been part of a generation who were fortunate to view such meaningful stories that contained such a message of God. Be Blessed and I will pray for you........Kym

[67nairb]

@havinfun1968 It aired on ABC for only two 1977-79.

[coolmaster5000]

Wow, that's so stupid, think about it, censoring Christmas specials because they mention God, I wonder if the world even knows what Christmas is? It's kind of the point.
