It was so cute! Thanks for posting it! Do you know from where it was taken?

[mytie67]

This was taken from the ABC special "Christmas with the Carpenters" from 1978.

Haha! Only in the 70's

[mytie67]

You're right. It is nice though to remember a time when this would be on a TV Christmas special. I watch this with a fondness for a gentler time. (G-d, I sound like I am 70 years old.)

This is what like in Karen! Her funny side! Let´s forget the anorexia and celebrate life!

[sneyder69]

I think that Karen was the most beautiful girl

Karen is a natural funny person, love her much..

[arfies]

Karen, Georgia, and Kristy looked like they had fun here! In real life, Karen loved doing funny impressions. Fun fact: Karen said that if she ever had a daughter, she wanted to name her "Kristi." Sadly that was not to be, but Richard named his first daughter Kristi (with an "i") in honor of that.

They are so funny ! Love this x-mas song !

Karen had such a great sense of humor even though she was dying on the inside. RIP Karen

That must have been hard for Karen to sing like that. Her voice was the best thing in town in the 70's.

Where is this stage?

[Gwenster11]

I love Karen! xD so cute

[klaatuinc]

Oooh, I want it on cd so very much but Rich wouldn't say yes.

I saw the porno version of this when I was a kid but Karen Carpenter was replaced by Marilyn Chambers and Georgia Engel's part was played by Divine. Kristy McNichol was, of course, in both versions. Apparently this was a significant factor in Kristy becoming gay. And, why she doesn't work anymore. That bipolar thing is just a cover. Trust me, I know because I'm bipolar too. Good night Mary Ellen.
