Yogi's First Christmas

While Yogi and Boo-Boo hibernate Ranger Smith spends Xmas in a nearby ski lodge with Snagglepuss, Augie Doggy, Doggie Daddy, and Huckleberry Hound. But it will be the last Xmas the lodge will ever have as the owner, Mrs. Frockmorton, is selling to build a freeway (over a mountain!). The festivities wake Yogi and Boo-Boo who gatecrash the party and show that fun times can still be had at the lodge, inadvertently impressing the owner at every opportunity, despite various attempts at sabotage.

The locations and animation featured in this 99-minute movie are kind of limited and sparse. It could have felt a bit more cozy and festive. Otherwise it's a decent way to spend a Sunday afternoon in the run-up to Xmas.

Watching Yogi bear's first Chirstmas was one of the best Christmas eve traditions when I was a child. The crazy adventures of that crazy bear and all his friends will always be a great and fond memory. It brings back memories of watching it after going to midnight mass with only the lights of the Christmas tree on and the crackling of the wood in the fireplace. And well watching it eating short bread and other cookies we baked for this special time of year. Now that I have three children of my own I would love to be able to find it on DVD. Does anyone know where to get it on DVD? Please email me at charleensouliere@hotmail.com if you have any ideas. Yes it is a children movie but being a child at heart once a year is a good thing to remind us that we all have an inner child that needs to be let know out once in a while. So sit back and let your inner child enjoy one of the classics of the season

This is one of the best Christmas cartoons out there. Every year without fail, my family watches it. We can't let the holiday season go by without Yogi's First Christmas! On a scale of 1 to 10, this cartoon gets a 15!

I am surprised none of the cartoon buffs have commmented on this cartoon.

Yogi's First Christmas has become one of the beloved Christmas specials since it aired.

It features all the characters created by Hanna-Barbera and has a pretty good story.

Of course the special comes complete with all the Christmas songs one would expect.

10 out 10.

....brought to you by Hanna-Barbera!
