Christmas Special Showcase:The Town Santa Forgot
In this sweet and somewhat underappreciated cartoon, a grandpa(voiced by the legendary Dick Van Dyke) tells his kids the story of a greedy little boy named Jeremy Creek who sends Santa a mile-long list. Santa, naturally assuming that no one person could possibly need that much stuff, wagers that Jeremy Creek must be the name of a place, and sure enough, there turns out to be a town with that very name, which coincidentally wasn't on Santa's route, so Santa ships the toys there. A nice story with an excellent message. Please enjoy!(Fun Fact:This show is based off of a little-known story by Charmaine Severson.)
