I've been telling people about this episode ever since I first saw it.



Hands down, my favorite Christmas themed story is the Jackie Chan Adventures episode, "A Jolly J-Team X-mas", from December 14, 2002.



Daolon Wong wants to become the Master of all Evil Chi Magic, and to make his evil chi super powerful he needs to steal a tiny bit of good chi - and the "gooder" the good chi, the more powerful he'll become. 



So Daolon Wong kidnaps Santa Claus, the best good chi there is.



But the Evil One didn't count on Jackie Chan and "The J-Team" to come to Santa's rescue, ruin Daolon Wong's plans, all while saving Christmas!

I'm an unapologetic fan of Pee Wee's Christmas Special which featured some of the biggest celebrity cameos of the 1990's, yes including Oprah.

The Jetsons - A Jetson Christmas Carol



I've seen some amazing adaptions of the story and this is one of the best.

Ahhh, but what really seperates the good Christmas episodes from the pretenders is a killer song & dance number. How about this little jingle from December 1995:

Thanks for the link MM! Can you believe this was from 1985?

Hanna-Barbera had a way of keeping cartoons fresh. Even after so long.
