I got Alan away from Nicklodeon tonight. We watched the last 1/4 of Wheel of Fortune (Pat Sajack looks old) and then the 2 ABC Holiday Specials - Shrek The Halls and How The Grinch Stole Christmas

Shrek The Halls was a holiday special done with all (well a majority of them) the characters and voices. I think the length and scale of the animation was cut down for TV. It did seem a bit choppy with the commercials though (although there was a cute Energizer bunny commericial with Shrek's Prince Charming chasing the bunny). They had an adorable Coke Polar Bear commercial too!

The Grinch was a nicely restored version although I think it may have been edited or cut (the Wikipedia entry mentions this). Alan seemed to enjoy it. He was more restless during the Shrek special, although he said he liked that better.

It was funny to watch the 60's Holiday Grouch learns a lesson right after the 00's Holiday Grouch.

I was just reading something about Pat Sajak. Wheel of Fortune's been going for 25 years!

How the Grinch Stole Christmas was a family favorite when we were kids. In recognition of that, I got my mother a tape of the show, near the middle of VHS's life as a commercial format. She was very pleased.
