Blooper
When Alexander is trapped in the Christmas tree-shaped Gloopstik and bawling over his fate, there is a slight intercut between his lines "I'm gonna be a Christmas tree all my life!" and "I'm...I'm a big bad wolf by trade, I- I don't KNOW anything else!".

Another Chuck Jones/Raggedy Ann collaboration I like

Here is another Chuck Jones Christmas TV special I liked after watching it. And it is another Chuck Jones/Raggedy Ann collaboration I hardly remember-until I watched it on YouTube, that is.

Anyway, the story starts when inventor and efficiency expert Alexander Graham Wolf, who looks and sounds like Wile E. Coyote, plans to take over Santa's workshop. I like Wolf's outfit, by the way. Overhearing this, Comet, Santa's #5 reindeer, asks Raggedy Ann, Andy, and their dog Raggedy Arthur to help her because they're easy to carry and aren't bothered by cold weather. At the factory, Alexander is using a machine to encase all the toys in blocks of a transparent, unbreakable substance called "gloopstick" to ensure that they'll last forever (even though the children won't be able to play with them). He then intends to charge the children for the gloopstick-encased toys and become rich. Will the rag dolls be able to save Christmas? You will have to watch for yourself.

So my last word is that I love this special from beginning to end. And I don't have any particular scene I like because I love the whole cartoon. One last thing I would like to say: I am starting to like the vocal talents of Les Tremayne (Mr. Wolf)... R. I. P., Les (1913-2003).
