Yogi's First Christmas

I am surprised none of the cartoon buffs have commmented on this cartoon.

Yogi's First Christmas has become one of the beloved Christmas specials since it aired.

It features all the characters created by Hanna-Barbera and has a pretty good story.

Of course the special comes complete with all the Christmas songs one would expect.

10 out 10.

My daughter and I recently watched Yogi's First Christmas (1980) on Tubi. The storyline follows Jellystone National Park preparing for Christmas holiday events at a nearby lodge. When a hibernating bear decides to wake up and join the party, things get out of control for the ranger. Can the ranger get things under control, or will the bear settle into the holiday season?

This picture had five directors and features voices from Daws Butler (The Jetsons), Don Messick (The Last Unicorn), Hal Smith (The Andy Griffith Show), and Janet Waldo (The Jetsons).

I enjoyed this picture way more than I expected. The idea of Yogi's first Christmas really worked, and the two villains were excellent. This also included a large number of side characters in the Jellystone universe, which was a pleasant surprise. The circumstances were a lot of fun, the hijinks were unique and unexpected, and the ending is rewarding. There's a lot to like here.

In conclusion, this is an underrated holiday animated gem that's absolutely worth your time. I would score this an 8/10 and strongly recommend it.

I'm not as familiar with the Yogi Bear world as other people might be. Whatever else I may have seen of it, I can't remember that well. But this special is something that I enjoy watching and I see no reason as to why you wouldn't enjoy it either. It just one place, we get treated to a variety of different events all rolled into one special. I will admit, it could be a flaw that it seems like a bunch of little stories all rolled into one big story, but that flaw (if you could call it one at all) befalls a lot of great movies and specials. I still see this whenever I can each December because it always seems like a nice way to spend Christmastime. If you can see it, than watch it because it's a good movie to watch.

....brought to you by Hanna-Barbera!

Yogi's First Christmas is a cute Christmas special with Yogi and Bobo and how they skip hibernation in an adapt to have a Christmas! This is a fun cartoon which I used to enjoy watching when I was growing up.

This is one of the best Christmas cartoons out there. Every year without fail, my family watches it. We can't let the holiday season go by without Yogi's First Christmas! On a scale of 1 to 10, this cartoon gets a 15!
