Synopsis:
Yogi Bear and his pal Boo Boo live in Jellystone Park, where they constantly sneak behind the back of Ranger Smith
to steal picnic baskets from unsuspecting vacationers. Yogi made his debut in 1958, as part of "The Huckleberry
Hound Show." The character proved so popular, he was given his own show in 1960, also sponsored by Kellogg's
Cereals. In addition to Yogi, the show featured separate cartoons with the new characters Snagglepuss and Yakky
Doodle. Through 1962, 70 Yogi Bear cartoons were produced, all of them featuring Daws Butler as the voice of
Yogi, and Don Messick as Boo Boo. In this Christmas Special, Yogi escapes from Jellystone and hides out in a
department store - posing as the Store's Santa. Along the way, he helps a little girl to rediscover her faith
in Christmas.

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS
'Twas the Night Before Christmas' will be released in brand new editions by Warner Home Video (WHV) on October 5, 2010
along with a newly remastered, deluxe edition.
Synopsis:
For some unexplained reason, letters to Santa Claus are being returned to the children of Junctionville. It seems
some resident has angered St. Nick, calling Christmas “a fraudulent myth!” Skeptical Albert Mouse has to be brought
to his senses “and let up a little on the wonder why.” How Albert is persuaded to change his tune paves the way for
Santa’s jolly return to town – and the joyous finale of the animated fable inspired by Clement Moore’s poem and
produced by the merrymaking conjurers of Rankin/Bass Studios. The voice talents of Joel Grey, Tammy Grimes, John
McGiver and George Gobel make this festive fable even more fun.
