Charles Schulz work tops my list in this area. Yeah, kids love it, but he was always throwing in plenty of humor and content to appeal to adults too.

^ I always thought it remiss that Warner Bros. never did a Christmas Special with Bugs Bunny, unless they did and I just missed it!

Oh I love Loony Tunes too, Saturday morns long ago....and the other cool mid century cartoons.

Also, forgot to mention the great music in Charlie Brown specials courtesy of Vince.

That jazz track was great, and quite innovative for a kid's cartoon.   The Grinch was pretty good but I guess I prefer Charlie, though the added material they now tack on to the end I could do without.   I still prefer the stop-motion things like Year Without a Santa Claus and Rudolph though.

^ yeah, Vince Guaraldi is really the only reason that the Charlie Brown Christmas special is even relevant and i have to concur that it's absolutely beautiful music. 

But how anyone not love the hell out of this tune? Oh yeah!

yeah... the years and the mileage along with some mighty traumatic life experiences have made middle aged Mick a rather grumpy and cynical a****le.. and Trump voter's stupidity didn't help that either

but once I pop into the CD player...as I do every year... that CD and hear this...


it is like time warp back to being cute little sweet Mick and thinking about how I could outfox mom and sneak a peak at what she had under the tree for me...

an emotonal suave... that is what that music is for me.. always has been actually...

The Grinch is in the size of a subatomic particle, just like other Whos.
