Terror in the Woods (2017)
Interesting series
You have to hand it to the writers, producers and crew for this show. They do a great job of telling the story and building tension. The vignettes are well written, but offer no verifiable elements, or much in the credibility department, save the veracity of the actors talent. Although the acting is not top notch, it is passable, often using previously unknown or little known talent. Locations and settings are good, as is the technical production of the stories. Even as an ultimate skeptic, I find myself taking deep breaths, and feeling the skin crawl a bit!
Take the stories with a grain of salt however.
A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)
Still amazing after all these years.
After reading the other comments here, I am glad to know that as a 40+ fellow, that the show has affected others as it has me. I can remember seeing this the first time back in 1965. I was in 1st Grade. The ending brought tears to my eyes back then and it still does in 2004.
Another person mentioned how evocative the entire thing is. The memories of a "CBS special" seem as vivid and enduring to other people as myself. Sadly however, I had forgotten about the COKE plug and the message at the end, "Merry Christmas from your local bottler of Coca-Cola" Somehow, in remembering how the ending was originally with that stupid commercial plug, now removed, the world seems a little smaller and a little less friendly.
