| has gloss | eng: The Christmas Special Christmas Special is a television program examining the history of Christmas specials, and featuring interviews with many people associated with them. Produced by the company World of Wonder, it originated on Trio, but it has also turned up on the Ovation Channel. It features currently popular pop culture hosts as commentators. While it is quite informative as long as it covers animation specials and Christmas programs featuring popular performers, it suffers from rather astonishing inaccuracies when it comes to covering films that have become Christmas television traditions, such as screen versions of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol (the commentator speaks as if the story had not become a television tradition until 1970, when in fact the 1938 MGM film version had been seen on television annually on many local stations as far back as the early 1960s). |
