make a wish
Attempting to spread a little moving picture, Orble cheer and feeling a bit nostalgic, John Doe found a few of the Christmas cartoons he used to watch every Noel.
They may have been made before JD’s birth, but when I was a kid these nostalgic specials always marked the true arrival of Xmas cheer.
Inspired hand drawn animation, energetic voice work and a solid streak of sincere comedy makes these timeless classics that have me reflecting on my younger days of innocence and belief.
The stop motion animation still charms, every word of the songs remains clear and Below are the complete stories….gather the nearest youngun’ and I hope they make you smile.
