CBS 12/83 - The Grinch (ending)

[MultiAnimationdude]

I cannot believe this special was using it's own bumpers. Since it's animated, it should use the general cartoon bumpers.

The V/O heard over the end credits was Lee Jordan.

The narrator for the grinch is my great grandfather!

I was probably watching this on channel 7 when this was airing. I was 6 and lived in Hyde Park!

I must say that The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is Boris Karloff's greatest role!

After M*A*S*H! I remember that show albeit not well (was 8 at the time). A flood of memories just came back just watching this. The Grinch belongs on CBS. So does Charlie Brown.

Lol you have commercials right before the credits on shows and movies in America?

CBS Sign Off

This was from the December 12, 1983 broadcast I take it.

Another CBS special that left the network for another...

[lno2k6]

Huh-a 1980 id without an announcer-strange!

[wmbrown6]

The CBS V/O announcer on that evening was Lee Jordan.

You know, the Jim Carrey Movie leaves out a very poignant line at the end that's in this. "Welcome Christmas whilw we stand, heart to heart, hand in hand."

[TBird100636]

@TBird100636 meant while, not whilw

[hkfreak]

It only feels colder from here on out and the cheer and commercialism can only rise. Don't you feel awful/amused/happy?

[tapthatt2012]

xmas seems to come earlier each year! : )

[MSTS1]

@tapthatt2012 - Not on purpose by me, just looking through Christmas tapes of ours that I hadn't checked before and finding whatever good clips that may show up -)

[musicom67]

Ahh yes.. the Chuck Jones M-G-M Tom & Jerry cartoon crew after Warner's....and in Metrocolor, no less! And what sloppy switching from the film to the CBS slide... POP!
