"The Year Without a Santa Claus has all the ingredients of the traditional Rankin/Bass holiday special: clever, sweet songs, charming stop-motion "animagic" animation, a simple, clear storyline, and some top-flight voice work from veteran pros."—DVDTalk.comDVD Talk: The Year Without A Santa Claus Review"The creatures Rankin & Bass brought to life in their animated holiday specials are so much a part of my psyche that I no more think about their nature than I pause to consider what constitutes the air I breathe."—Flick FilosopherFlick Filosopher: The Year Without A Santa Claus Review
