    There are some - presumably pet lovers - who think this is better than the 1982 original. Well, good as this is - I heartily disagree. A young boy and his mum move into a new house and underneath a floorboard, he discovers some memorabilia that indicates the original snowman came from this house too. Down comes the snow, out goes the boy - and soon we have not only an identical replica of our chilly friend, but also of his lately lamented schnauzer too. Early on Christmas morning, they magically come to life and take our young man on a magical adventure to meet Santa. I found this story a little more sad than the last; there is no dialogue at all and for me, the score seemed just a bit more dolente. Though enjoyable it hasn't the joy or optimism of the first one, either - indeed there is even the hint of melancholia about it. The animations are lovey, though, and it really is a fine piece of television.

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

Sam the snowman tells us the story of a young red-nosed reindeer who, after being ousted from the reindeer games because of his glowing nose, teams up with Hermey, an elf who wants to be a dentist, and Yukon Cornelius, the prospector. They run into the Abominable Snowman and find a whole island of misfit toys. Rudolph vows to see if he can get Santa to help the toys, and he goes back to the North Pole on Christmas Eve. But Santa's sleigh is fogged in. But when Santa looks over Rudolph, he gets a very bright idea...
