Anyone have the tradition of watching Christmas Vacation every year around Christmas?

We've been doing it for years, usually on Christmas Eve. There aren't a ton of movies I like to watch more than a couple of times, but this is one of them.

'Christmas Vacation' Is The Funniest — and Most Honest — of the Series

We watch It's A Wonderful Life.  Sometimes also Miracle on 34th Street (original version)

@shooter One of the networks.  Maybe E?  Was playing It's a Wonderful Life all day and night.

My DVR has saved for many years

It's a Wonderful Life

Miracle on 34th St.

Rudolph

Frosty

Charlie Brown Christmas

Christmas Vacation

and Nestor the Long-eared Donkey, which my oldest loves, for some reason

@shooter You should add the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.  My daughters still get a kick out of that one.  That crew was mean!

The North Pole definitely has a bullying problem. No Reindeer games for you, Rudolph.

Both great choices for those holidays for sure.

My wife and daughter don't get into "It's A Wonderful Life." My daughter says, "it's too old." Whippersnappers! My wife has no good excuse other than she prefers comedies and it's not a comedy.

It's always streaming. They even have a colorized version which I haven't watched.

It was always The Wizard of Oz on broadcast TV when I was little back in the 60s.

A Christmas Story, It's a Wonderful Life and Die Hard.

We go and see Polar Express in the theater every year.

 

Not TV related, but we also let them open one gift every year, which is always their new PJs.
