It was only aired the one time.  This poor unfortunate classic wanna-be.  While its parent movie was destined to be a timeless classic, this special, despite aspirations to join the ranks of The Grinch, Frosty, and Rudolph, wound up in the scrap pile like so much holiday wrapping paper.  It&#8217;s hard to imagine how this missed.  After all, if adding Bea Arthur and Art Carney, with a special musical appearance by Jefferson Starship, to the cast doesn&#8217;t make Mark, Carrie, and Harrison more Christmassy, then I guess nothing does. <\/p>\n<p>For your viewing pleasure, <a href=\"http:\/\/video.hollywoodreporter.com\/services\/player\/bcpid43169544001?bctid=59051487001\">the special<\/a> has been boiled down to its five minute essence, which I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll agree is more than enough.
