TBS will be airing the classic animated special Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas on Saturday November 11th at 7:30.

A tad early, but if I’m home, I’ll probably turn it on.

The Grinch is on tonight. I see we gathered few views and no replies, so maybe it is way too early. But for those of you who love this show (I have an Original Animatino Cel from it) you can tune it for the first showing of the season.

Yeah, it is early. I’ll probably TiVo it though and save it for viewing in December.

I watched it and enjoyed it as always.

:eek:

I hope I didn’t miss it on my local channels!

I missed it last year and was \*so \* disappointed. It’s the only one I really feel I need to watch before I can say it’s Christmastime. The Charlie Brown Christmas special always helps, too, but it’s the Grinch who makes me feel ready for the holidays.

So, how did it end this year? Did he still hoist that sleigh over his head? Did his heart expand and break that little measuring gizmo?

Spoilers, J, spoilers. It’s people like you that ruined _Titanic_ for me.

No doubt they will play it again. If so, I usually post a heads-up.
