Now I understand this thread may be too early for some. However, the preparations for this year's Christmas and people getting in the festive mood early hasn't escaped my attention.
The Christmas lights have been turned on in my town, the usual advertisements have gone up in shops and pubs/bars all around, I've heard some Christmas music been played, seen some of my family preparing the presents they're going to give and even earlier today I saw a kid walking around wearing a Santa hat.
For me generally, I do my Christmas shopping in November to get it out of the way and start on the songs and trying to get into the festive spirit when December arrives.
This year, however, I'm going to go with the flow and start early. My question is what Christmas specials - whether it be movies, tv shows or shorts - do you like the best?
Here's some examples from the Nostalgia Critic - including his favorites and others (some of which are overlooked) that are worth a mention.

11. South Park: A Woodland Critter's Christmas
10. Disney's The Little Match Girl
9. Home Alone
8. Miracle on 34th Street (Original Version)
7. The Small One
6. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
5. It's a Wonderful Life
4. How the Grinch Stole Christmas
3. A Charlie Brown Christmas
2. A Christmas Carol (Any Version)
1. A Christmas Story
11. Elf
10. A Garfield Christmas Special
9. The Polar Express (in 3D)

6. The Nativity Story
5. A Pinky and the Brain Christmas
4. All in the Family (Episode: The Draft Dodger)

I'll put in my own favorites later.
