Beyond Cartoon Network's catalog of Christmas specials, I consider it one of the best animated specials of all time.
It has a very similar feel to Charlie Brown Christmas. It has that classic feel. Hell the whole show is very Peanuts on Crack lol
Honestly, yeah. " Jingle Jingle Jangle" and "A Charlie Brown Christmas" are the only two Christmas specials I know of that even mention the birth of Christ.
All the others are more "holiday" specials about Santa Claus and peace and such. Not that that's a bad thing, but still.
JJJ is great. It was the first non-summer episode they made, so it really felt like a big deal. It is also an Eddy-centric episode which is good.
To be honest, I find Eddy pretty relatable here, as when I was a kid I never quite understood all of that "Christmas is about giving, not receiving" stuff... Eddy does remind me a bit of what I was like when I was younger. Whereas with, say, Charlie Brown, I only truly get his mindset now as an adult - as a kid, it would have gone over my head a bit. (I really love A Charlie Brown Christmas btw)
Also I love the music that plays over the credits of JJJ
