4. I would pick Frosty but
when he starts to melt it gets me all teary-eyed. ;)

So, I'll go with Charlie Brown.

13. Yeah, it's a really cute movie.
I think Matt Groening (Simpsons) had a hand in it. Drew Barrymore voices. There is this dog named Olive that mis-hears the Rudolph song "all of the other reindeer" as "Olive, the other reindeer" and then has a nice little adventure.

14. Yes, that's the one. It was love at first sight for me.
Nordstrom had a hand in promoting it and had all kinds of Olive stuff for sale. My mom bought me almost all of it after Christmas when it was deeply discounted.

Here she is: She's a Jack Russell terrier, BTW.

11. Ziggy's Gift...not shown anymore
Don't ask me why, but I, a 48 yr old, adult male, military veteran, father of 3 and grandfather of 3.5 practically bawl like a baby when I watch it. I won't watch it if my wife's home.

12. Not animated, but a Muppet Show: The Xmas Toy
Don't get my started on my tear-jerker story about the year my daughter, then three, saw it and decided she wanted Rugby Tiger for Xmas: a toy that did not exist and couldn't be found.

But I found the spitting image just a week before Xmas.

I love that show, if for no other reason that my own little Xmas miracle associated with it.

15. Frosty...
Hocus is one cool rabbit.

Gotta love Hocus, teaching Karen and Frosty how to hop freight trains. Naughty, naughty Hocus. *Bad* bunny.
