The Top 10 Characters of the Rankin/Bass Holiday Specials 1/3

[joshuaorro]

Teresa reminds me of Sound of Music. I NEVER THOUGHT OF FROSTY like POOH BEAR. Aaron (the Drummer Boy) reminds me of Mowgli from Jungle Book. I'm sorry to correct you Hewy but Paul Frees' last name is pronounced as "Freeze".

[PyroGothNerd]

MOMMY FORTUNA!!! yay you brought that movie up

[RadTheDude]

Actually, I pretty much find that 1 Burl Ives song near the end of Rudolph The Red-Nosed reindeer 2 B moar memorable than the carol it was based off of by only a fly's wing.

[chocolatefountain95]

Right making a list: watch all these specials before Christmas 2016. IOW watch them all before Christmas at 21

[joshuaorro]

Angela also played The empress in Anastasia, Frosty's movie was one of my favorites, little drummer boy was the first biblical movie i ever knew, plus Paul Frees is in ALOT of Rankin/Bass movies

[TheKaijuCritic94]

Ok, this is what pisses me off. The little drummer boy and the other Jesus related shows AREN'T SHOWN ANYMORE. It's like how you can't talk about religion in school.

[Hewylewis]

@TheKaijuCritic94 Agreed.

[Yuna1313]

@TheKaijuCritic94

I completely agree and it doesn't feel like Christmas without them.

[DogoHalibar]

I never even heard of the First Christmas Show.

[The38DODGE]

I love christmas, the specials, the carols, the gifts, and most importantly, celebrating this wonderful holiday with my family!

[lightingcobra]

Nice to see other people recognize or even know what Rankin/Bass is!

[F1315NJ]

@lightingcobra Of course. It's a childhood favorite to anyone who grew up watching their specials.

[VanitasxAura]

I love these movies!!!!! You both rock!!!!!

[EvilMimiko]

The Story Of The First Christmas Snow FTW!!! ^^

[MrCPugh2005]

Hewy, beware of this user, BLACKbarfGhost57, he has been making insults about your series and he has been bulling your friends, South Jersy Sam and Dani. I hope you will be able to block him soon.

[Cynthia149]

The only Rankin Bass special I ever saw is 'The Easter Bunny Is Comin' To Town.'

When it's easter, would you mind reviewing it for the sake of it?

[GhostPlanetFilms]

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS! Of all the reviews/top vids of yours, never once did I think I'd see one in GMOD form. This review is awesome; some of these Rankin/Bass films I've never even heard of before.

[megamanx1800]

I love the Dark Crystal!

[LilbunUWiz]

Nice! I was hoping someone would discuss the Rankin/Bass specials this year!

I agree with you on the Vienna Boys Choir; their rendition of Little Drummer Boy is very haunting in a way. I got the shivers when I watched the special in full and the Vienna Boys Choir definitely helped.

[ShadowDJ94]

So...what's the 4th Dimension? we already saw Dimension 2 and 3, so what's 4?

[F1315NJ]

@ShadowDJ94 Let's just say that there are some things best left forgotten...

[princepalkia44]

if rankinbass is a japanese company, then does that make frosty the snowman anime?

[E07WORLD]

Who is that insane dude, I meen I know the characther, but who´s doing the voice and where did this kind pprtraying the from?

is he some kind of co-host or something?

[F1315NJ]

@E07WORLD Which are you refering to?

[E07WORLD]

@F1315NJ

The Heavy (founded out his name after I wrote the comment)

[LucySanchez90]

Oh my god, the life and adventures of Santa Claus! I haven't seen that since I was a pup! I want to find it on DVD now! I wonder if it's available...

This is a great start to a wonderful list.

[JadedTimberwolf]

lol, sim demension!

[alagateryandchesnut3]

good list though i was expecting frosty to be higher on the countdown

[Barclay1987]

Wow.

[realar]

So Hewy tell me, when did Frosty Returns become the so called sequel of Frosty the Snowman and not the true sequel Frosty's Winter Wonderland? Frosty Returns is quite mediocre but that doesn't mean Bill Melendez did a bad job, it's just that the look of the Peanuts snuck into the art design and it looked wiird. Plus the plot of a spray that erases snow is just too much and unnecessary.

[TheBurningDonut]

My first thought was

"Hay it looks like a Gary's Mod animation!"

and sure enough!

There's Heavy!

[Jaimetud]

"The Adventures and Life of Santa Claus." How long it's been since I've seen it. This is off to a good start.

[MarkC18]

Uh... why are some of the kids not wearing proper legwear in Frosty? Did their parents even dress them properly?

[MarkC18]

My Sims!

Also... 0:20 Nightmare fuel

[Hethrin]

Heavy FTW!!!

Great review Hewy!

[nerdsman567]

Jackie Vernon will ALWAYS be the voice of Frosty to me ;)

[bluethunder25]

Frosty at #8?! He should at least be at #2. He's one of the most iconic holiday figures of all time!

[F1315NJ]

@bluethunder25 Keep watching...

[orgixvi3]

THUNDERCATS FTW!!!

[Medusa0999]

South Jersey Sam <3

[F1315NJ]

@Medusa0999 Thanks

[Medusa0999]

@F1315NJ Well dude you rock, and You like Repo lol

[wargun1000]

wow, it looks like the sims

[Neoguest]

*sigh* didn't watch Christmas special. I haven't been watching tv much

[skellington15]

#9 - Lord of the Rings meets Christmas?

[RebelTaxi99]

I see you all got stuck in still life like I did. Also, I like the Heavy cameo

[SonicGirl8]

MERRY CHRISTMAS HEWY!

[MrBlockishMark]

Good video, but a bit too late.

[Hewylewis]

@MrBlockishMark Had a really hard time trying to upload it last night.

[MrDarkcatify]

@Hewylewis did you know Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (TV special) is a long-running Christmas television special ever made!?

[petermullinvideos]

@Hewylewis I understand. Keep up the reviews.

[Pyroblazer]

@MrBlockishMark Better late than never!

[Cynthia149]

@MrBlockishMark not by my watch!
