this is what Shrek the third should have been. High on comedy,AWESOME soundtrack and a nice little moral at the end. All the characters were great. And I particularly loved Gingy's Christmas story of horror ( it had me rolling) My only complaint was the length of time. It really could've gone an hour to hour and a half and i wouldn't have complained.
This is a wonderful holiday special that will no doubt be added to our family holiday rotation. And in the plus column it was completely family friendly.
If you have a chance see it. I personally can't wait for the DVD.

Fun Stuff
Quotes: Puss in Boots: He was dressed all in fur / From his head to his paws / And he stood there heroic, / A real Santa... Claws. / Red are his boots / And so is his cape; / His sword is a thing / That tastes like crabcake. / He wears a fine belt / And a leather cravat / And there is a cute, fuzzy thing / Which hangs down from his... hat. [purring and tapping on bell]
Donkey: My mama used to always say, 'Christmas ain't Christmas till somebody cries!' Usually that someone's me.
Bookstore Clerk: I know all about Christmas, and I have just the book for you: 'Christmas For Village Idiots.'
