Plot: The Grinch is a creature who lives in a cave on Mount Crumpit, located above Whoville has a heart two sizes too small and has always hated Christmas. He wishes he could stop Christmas from coming to Whoville. When he sees his dog, Max, covered in snow looking like Santa, the Grinch comes up with an idea. He disguises himself as Santa and Max as his reindeer. The Grinch steals everything from the Whos and waits for their cries. But they celebrate anyway, with the Grinch now realizing Christmas isn't made of material things. The sleigh he had made to get all of the gifts almost falls off the cliff. But his heart has grown three sizes because of this realization and his heart growing gives him the strength to stop the sleigh. He returns everything to Whoville and participates in the holiday feast and cuts the roast beef.
Review: What can I say about this special? It's a Christmas classic that has been treasured for decades and will continue to be treasured for decades to come. It's a simple story with well done animation. I love Boris Karloff's narration (he also voices the Grinch). A very well made special that shows us kids and everyone alike the true meaning of Christmas. A short TV special that's always enjoyed by the entire family.
Rating: 5/5
