Here are some great shows you could not afford to miss on the tube:

1. "A Charlie Brown Christmas"

First on the list is this 1965 classic by Charles Schulz. This Christmas TV special is about the Charlie Brown's quest in finding the real meaning of Christmas. He finds his friends going obsessed over luxurious material presents and decorations and Christmas events, and everyone else getting hooked up on letters and cards for Santa. He then gets depressed with how commercialized Christmas has become. When given the task to pick out a Christmas tree for the pageant his friends were hosting, he then searches and brings the plainest looking Christmas tree. After Linus makes a touching speech, his friends finally realized the real essence of Christmas, and how fragile it is in this much commercialized world.
