Thanks for posting this great memory of childhood during the early 70's in Kankakee,IL. It reminds of such an innocent time spending great Christmases with mom and dad and other family and friends...priceless!!!
I remember Creature Features!! I almost feel like a kid again seeing this cartoon and being reminded of the stuff that was on in Chicago when I was a kid. Gotta like it.
Micki;I hated it when creature features went to another channel& they had that stupid son of svenghoulie!... do you remember the channel the show was on after channel nine?
Ralph's World (Ralph Covert) did very nice version of this song on his limited edition Christmas CD "Holly Jolly Christmas." But good luck trying to find it.
It's funny how the faces of animated characters have changed through the years. As an adult, I look at these guys and think they look pretty darned malevolent. As a kid, I probably would have loved them!
My mom showed me this when I was 1 or 2 years old, during the mid 90's. It scared the hell outta me.

@PupuTheClown Sorry Pupu! I was raised in a clean,loving environment by responsible parents. And cellphones were not invented yet when I was a kid!

Good Gracious, now I know why all the toys are made in China. I had no idea Santa was Chinese exploiting child labor.

Santa has no need for Joe, but he takes him anyway because he loves him so.

This was a favorite in my house around Xmas. We also enjoyed B.J. Dirty Dragon, and Creature features.
