Special Feud: Christmas Specials by Zebra [Game Over]

[Rebo]

This is a feud about television Christmas specials.

DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS

Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. Google or other research is allowed, if you desire. Only answers that are “serious” will be scored. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.

Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.

If any of you have ideas for Feuds -and would like me to score them- PM me and I’ll get you on The List.

FORMATTING OF ANSWERS IS IMPORTANT!

Write your answers like this; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.
JUST LIKE THIS:

1. answer <<—There is a space after the period!
2. response
3. rejoinder

The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 4:00 PM Central on Thursday, 12/25/08 whichever comes first. (If I have time. :))

Good luck!

#7 - The Allister Simms version
#8 - It is a must see for all children of the 70’s. Although it’s only been broadcast once, George Lucas is apparently destroying all copies.
I downloaded it a few years ago but the quality was terrible…so was the storyline and musical numbers but a must see nonetheless.
