    Olive the Other Reindeer is truly the most underrated Christmas special

      🎶 I love Valentine's Day and the 4th of July
      I'm a little bit sad when Halloween has gone by
      I'm thankful thanksgiving comes around in the fall
      But I've always loved Christmas, the best of them all
      Everydays special, I'm not complaining
      But I'm always counting the days still remaining
      Til Christmas 🎶
      My childhood will never die so long as I have great memories like these

    Other underrated Christmas specials I’d recommend:
    1. ALL of the “Flintstones” Christmas specials (“A Christmas Flintstone”, “The Flintstones Christmas”, “A Flintstone Family Christmas”, and “A Flintstones Christmas Carol”)
    2. The “Prep and Landing” specials (which appeared on this video but sadly didn’t even make an Honorable Mention).
    3. “Santa Company” (a successfully Kickstarted indie anime special by Kenji Studio)
    4. “Santa’s Missing Hat” ( “Hello Kitty” franchise)
    5. “Jingle Bell Rap” - about a rock band of anthropomorphic dogs performing at their hometown and one of its members trying to make peace with his father
    6. “Father Christmas” (from the creator of “The Snowman”)
    7. “Night of the Meek” (“The Twilight Zone”) - No, really. Even though it deals with some supernatural phenomena, it’s actually pretty uplifting.

      Garfield's Christmas is one of my favorites too! I am very glad that I own a copy on DVD since CBS stopped airing it years ago. Another great Christmas cartoon that gets overlooked IMO is The Real Ghostbusters episode Xmas Marks The Spot. In the story the Ghostbusters pass through a time slip into Victorian England and meet Scrooge and The Three Ghosts of Christmas. The Ghosts get contained, and when the Ghostbusters get back to their time as a result no one celebrates Christmas. Egon Spengler must venture into the Containment Unit to get the Ghosts, and Peter, Ray and Winston must step in as the Ghosts of Christmas to help Scrooge learn his lesson in the event Egon is not successful. Peter learns the spirt of the season, as well since he a difficult time around Christmas as child which he held onto in his adulthood.
      Both The Muppets Christmas and Hey Arnold are two Christmas specials that deserve to be talked about more. Having all of Jim Henson's Muppet characters together for the first time is amazing. Really hope that some day, the original version is released on DVD in the US. Also I am really surprised that Emmett Otter's Jug band Christmas did not make the list since it was another Jim Henson project that is largely forgotten about when compared to 1992's The Muppet Christmas Carol.

    My 2 favorite underrated Christmas specials are "Opus & Bill: A Wish for Wings that Work", based on Bloom County/Outland; and "VeggieTales: The Toy That Saved Christmas", which pokes fun at the whole Must-Have Toy trope AND network programming, all with a Christian twist.

      @@Zodia195 Same here, I never met Jim Henson in person but I really enjoyed his work. Both the Muppets and Sesame Street were a big part of my childhood. Also as a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan, the work that Jim Henson's Creature Shop did for the 1990 live action movie is some of the best puppetry work I have ever seen. Even though it has been many years since he passed away, I still miss him.

I just knew it was a Jim Henson work and that's why I saw it to begin with since I am a huge fan of his works.
    #2 is my fav Christmas special of all time since it's the first Crossover I've ever scene and I had my first fangasm lol. I watch it every Christmas on UA-cam.
    There are a few other Specials that I love seeing- New Kids on the Block Christmas special (yes they did have an animation show), David Copperfield (it aired around Christmas and starts at Christmas so it counts lol), and The Town that Santa Forgot (much like the Grinch, the narration is all in rhyme).

    Three strongly underrated Christmas specials are "The Town That Santa Forgot" (1993), narrated by the melodious vocals of Bert himself, Dick Van Dyke, about a selfish child who writes such a long Christmas list to Santa that Santa mistakes it for a list from children of an entire town. Poetic rhyming-based hilarity ensues.
    "Buster & Chauncey's Silent Night" (1998), an animated historical fiction adaptation of the story of how the classic German Christmas hymn Silent Night was composed, starring the voice talents of Jim Cummings as Buster and Phil Hartman (in one of his last three film roles, the other two being Small Soldiers and the voice of Jiji in the Disney Dub of Kiki's Delivery Service) as Chauncey, two mice who inspire Joseph Mohr in the writing of the hymn.
    And a special one to me, "The Twelve Days of Christmas" (1993). That Christmas special is notable not only for having Phil Hartman in another major role (as the sheepishly geeky squire Hollyberry), but for being the last TV/movie/Christmas Special to have been written by Romeo Muller before his death. Romeo is notable for being the king of classic holiday-special writers. He wrote the scripts to many classic Rankin and Bass stop-motion and animated TV specials and movies, including Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph's Shiny New Year, Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Return to Oz (1964), J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit (1977), The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (1980), the three Puff the Magic Dragon TV films, and The Flight of the Dragons (1982).

    The Story of Santa Claus with Ed Asner, Betty White and Tim Curry should have made the list.

    I'm a little bit sad when Halloween has gone by
    I'm thankful thanksgiving comes around in the fall
    But I've always loved Christmas, the best of them all
    Everydays special, I'm not complaining
    But I'm always counting the days still remaining
    Til Christmas🎶

    Seriously??? No "Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol"??? The first and best animated Christmas special. IMO. Mr. Magoo was not my favorite cartoon character, but he was a GREAT Scrooge. And Jack Cassidy's Bob Cratchit was AMAZING.

    I have a special fondness for the Animaniacs Christmas special. The first half is the funniest Christmas Carol parody I've ever seen.
    And the second half is even more remarkable - it's a spoof on the Nativity that's funny without being offensive, and respectful without being overly religious. Try pulling that off nowadays.

    I still need to see The Christmas Toy. I used to like The Secret Life of Toys which was a follow on series featuring similar puppets like Rugby and the mouse toy but didn't know about The Christmas Toy until much later. We had The Muppet Family Christmas on VHS, though.
