ABC Family 25 Days of Christmas – Day 15

Dec - 15 2009 | Damon Cap | no comments

homealone2Back on track with the holiday specials tonight.  Even though I am not a huge fan of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and the Island of Misfit Toys, they gave it a try.  It fails with the animation and the CGI, which does not endear you to any of the characters, in my opinion.  I think they would have been better served by doing it stop-animation style updated like they did with A Miser Brothers’ Christmas, even though I am not keen on the actual story for that show either.  We also get something of a tradition with Home Alone 2, which I always seem to catch during the holidays.

(7:00-8:30 PM ET/PT) RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER AND THE ISLAND OF MISFIT TOYS – (*See Wednesday, December 9, for description.) 

(8:30-10:30 PM ET/PT) HOME ALONE 2: LOST IN NEW YORK

In “Home Alone 2: Lost In New York,” the sequel to “Home Alone,” Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is back, and this time his playground is New York City. Separated from the rest of his family — who are on vacation in Florida — Kevin uses his father’s credit card to have a grand “Big Apple” time! Soon, though, Kevin discovers that the robbers he foiled once before are out of prison, in New York, and planning a huge toy store heist. Kevin sets out to deter them once again, only this time the robbers are equally as determined. (Live Action)

I really love Home Alone and Home Alone 2.  I started to enjoy them more after seeing them a few times where it dawned on me how good they really were.  Plus they do feel like holiday shows, both of them, for some reason.
