But when Max convinces his dad that father and son could use a break from tradition, a horrified Pete discovers that Goofy has followed him to Asprin. As Max describes, “Every year we do the same thing-put up a ton of stuff and burn a turkey.” Max isn’t the only one who has had enough of Goofy’s merry mishaps: Pete is so determined to keep his neighbor from wrecking his Christmas that he packs up his family and heads to Asprin, Colorado.

Goofy wants to make the yuletide special for his son, Max, but his best-laid holiday plans-and decorations-always end rather goofily. When their plans don’t work out, Pooh decides to test out his own Santa skills… and Christmas chaos ensues.Ī Goof Troop Christmas: Have Yourself a Goofy Little Christmas (1992) In the special, Winnie the Pooh and Piglet set out to retrieve Christopher Robin’s letter to Santa Claus, detailing all of the gang’s holiday wishes, because Pooh has forgotten to include what he wants most: hunny, naturally. We first celebrated Christmas in the Hundred Acre Wood on December 14, 1991, when this Pooh-rific special debuted on ABC it would be released on VHS in 1994. We here at D23 took a gander at our collection of VHS tapes and DVDs and came up with this list of some of our favorites. Truly, there may have been no cozier tradition. We were “forced” to curl up on the couch, within remote control range of our DVD or VHS player, to watch Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas for the umpteenth time (that year).


Sure, we could watch them any time- after we sat through the rewinding process, if we were watching on VHS-but we couldn’t watch them just anywhere. Many Christmases ago-before the days of DisneyNOW… before the days of Movies Anywhere… even before the days of D23-Disney fans had a very different way of experiencing holiday specials on the small screen.
