1725ArticleVaporman87@OldSchool - I'm not sure if I ever had a pair of ET pajamas, but I do know I owned an ET t-shirt, because I'm wearing it on my "ET Birthday". That was the birthday my mom had somebody make me an ET cake, which I have described in another article comment section. Basically, it was a two foot tall ET made of cake. And it tasted awful.  Dec 22, 2014View
2198ArticleRetro King of the LandI had that same radio! I used to tape "radio broadcast' late into the night with that. My Christmas 1982Apr 04, 2015View
2204ArticleVaporman87@Retro King: Do you mean to say that you recorded YOURSELF performing broadcasts, or you simply recorded actual radio broadcasts? If it's the former, then I am in the same boat. I still have several cassette tapes with my friends and I acting out our "broadcasts". Great stuff.My Christmas 1982Apr 05, 2015View
4227ArticleJOscarJrThese are great memories, and you helped stir some of my own as well. I have discovered that "American Top 40 - The 80s" is available on platforms like TuneIn and iHeartRadio, so I go back in time quite frequently while listening to the old countdowns. Great stuff!My Christmas 1982Dec 20, 2017View

1664ArticleVaporman87Very cool to learn of some of these films/shows. I agree with the choice of the Rankin-Bass "Twas the Night Before Christmas" special. That one I have fond memories of watching as a kid. The little mouse that rats out Santa as a myth always got on my nerves. I always wished one of the humans would catch him in a trap. LOL I'm interested in watching The Snowman. It sounds just splendid, so I'll check out the link you provided for that one. I'm also going to check out the Raggedy Ann and Andy special. I'm thinking I MAY have seen that one before, but it's been so long ago that I remember little to nothing about it. Some specials that I think deserve more attention: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeG499fHctw">Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas</a> <a href="https://myspace.com/rudolphofficial/video/the-christmas-toy/49422958">The Christmas Toy</a> <a href="https://archive.org/details/TheLifeAndAdventuresOfSantaClaus">The Life And Adventures of Santa Claus</a>What To Watch on ChristmasDec 16, 2014View
1667ArticleMr MagicDutch. What a film that was. XDWhat To Watch on ChristmasDec 16, 2014View
1673ArticleBarryBgbIt's so nice to finally see someone else mention "Twas the Night Before Christmas"! I love that one and no one seems to remember it. It was also nice to see "Dutch" getting some love. It was raked across the coal when it was released, but I've always found it to be enjoyable and fun. Ever since '94, I started making tapes for Christmas and Halloween. Taping things off the TV (and I still do!). I have 20 tapes each and some things that just aren't seen anymore. I'm so glad I started doing this. I have a lot to watch each year.What To Watch on ChristmasDec 17, 2014View
1674ArticleVaporman87That's awesome Barry. There are so many specials that have come and gone and have been all but forgotten. I tried coming up with a few of them as part of the clips shown in the RetroDaze Halloween Special. I'll have to dig up some more for next year. If you can, maybe PM me some names of some specials or Halloween episodes of shows that would be good to use.What To Watch on ChristmasDec 17, 2014View
1681ArticleHoju Koolander@BarryBgp and thecrow174 I'm glad to see Dutch getting so much love this Christmas. And hey, it's good to have you in the mix here, Barry. @Vaporman87 My wife is in full agreement on Emmett Otter and I started watching The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus last night. It's like the Lord of the Rings Christmas Special, pretty epic. What To Watch on ChristmasDec 17, 2014View
