If you're not familiar with "Robbie the Reindeer", like me, it was a 3 episode Christmas series produced by BBC between 1999 and 2007. Celebrities such as Britney Spears, James Woods, and Jerry Stiller voiced some of the characters. Betty White and Tim Curry are the featured voice actors in "The Story of Santa Claus."
That's all that's available for now with regards to network Christmas specials. Of course, Hallmark has 24 hour round-the-clock Christmas movies on both The Hallmark Channel and Hallmark's Movies and Mysteries Channel. As we all know, the Charlie Brown Christmas will not air on ABC this year, and will air instead on Apple TV. As these classics of YesterYear come in, I'll be sure to let you all know.
