I watched Mr Magoo's A Christmas Carol and A Charlie Brown Christmas.
The first does not age well I think. Too many bad songs. It just drags.
The second is 10/10.
The Grinch Who Stole Christmas and Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer would be in my top three also.

I watched A Charlie Brown Christmas a few nights ago and it's a definite 10/10.
I also watched the 1971 animated classic version of A Christmas Carol. Best version of Dickens' story for me. This and Charlie Brown are my two favorite animated Christmas specials.
I haven't seen Grinch in a long time and I don't think I've ever seen Mr Magoo's A Christmas Carol.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Claymation Christmas
No longer watch any of the Charlie Brown programs.
Cannot stand watching him being bullied and humiliated by everyone.

Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol is totally fantastic IMO. Charlie Brown's Christmas is a true classic and one of the best. How the Grinch Stole Christmas is also super. Honorable mention for the original Frosty the Snowman cartoon. The 1969 animated A Christmas Carol is also good.
I also love many of the Rankin and Bass stop motion classics.
I have just about all of these on DVD and watch them every year.

Charlie Brown
Frosty (the Original-Jimmy Durante as narrator, Billy DeWolfe as the hammy, frustrated magician
Prof.Hinkle, Jackie Vernon as Frosty,etc.)
Rudolph, again the original with Burl Ives.
Year without a Santa Claus-COLD MISER-HEAT MISER
The Grinch with good old Boris Karloff (and Thurl Ravenscroft-NOT JIM CARREY! Mr.Grinch!)
Mr.Magoo's Christmas Caorl, the very first, with Jim Backus's lovable coot, and Paul Frees, Jack Cassidy (before his Partridge kid David Cassidy later became a star in his own right and while his Partridge wife Shirley Jones already was outdistancing Carol Brady, Florence Henderson)-everything from straightforward presentaiton to the comic break with "We're Just no Good". This infleunced the `1964 Magoo's Tales, which was to imply that everything about the original made it good, but the Magoo Famous adventures, coincidentally premiering against the debut of Jim Backus's other icon, Thurston Howell in GIlligan's Island ON ANOTHER NETWORK LOL*, owed to the story, and Magoo had been originally a comic character..(I personally love the adventures and Magoo could do anything in my eyes..)
*Thurston Howell blustered his lovable blowhard self into Gilligan's Island on the good old eye, CBS.
Magoo (both prime time nighttime literary and earlier special) were on the peacock. Remember the exclusivity deal networks and sponsors had especially then... The Lennon Sisters could apparently only do ABC shows, when guesting outside of Welk on the ABC network..like Mickey Mouse Club in Disney's pre-Peacock NBC ABC alphabet.I doubt "The Ed Sullivan Show" had non-CBS stars, but we're gettin' off track..
