3/5 Rich Little's Christmas Carol and Robin Hood
  by B. A. Leonard (Parachute,. CO United States)
Rich Little's Christmas Carol is worth the DVD! It has been a favorite of mine for years. Having it in DVD format is a real plus; no longer do I have to worry the VHS Tape would wear out, and the images are clearer. This is an excellent presentation. Little's characters are believable and recognizable, especially if you knew them in life. The impersonations are structured around the story of A Christmas Carol. As for Little's Robin Hood, it was a big disappointment. There is not a good story; impressions are not well carried out; and it is a bit corny. It clearly is not the same quality presentation as the Christmas Carol. These two items came together; getting the Christmas Carol is worth the expense.

This was a classic routine from Rich Little. It was a little tuff to watch old TV again because it was so simple. But it is a classic so I like owning this version.

4/5 Half good and half not

I saw Rich Litttle's version of A Christmas Carol many years ago on HBO and A&E, and although I did tape it on VHS it eventually wore out. I happened to see the DVD when I was Christmas shopping for myself. I have always enjoyed Little's Christmas Carol, but after watching his version of Robin Hood I thought it was a load of crap. While I have often read the legends of Robin Hood many times, even allowing for the fact that it was supposed to be funny, this version of Robin Hood got dumb real fast. I highly recommend purchasing this DVD for the Christmas Carol, but I would strongly recommend that you either don't watch the "bonus" feature, or only watch it once, and after that stick to the Christmas Carol.

5/5 Hokey and jokey, but would you want it any other way?

Ah, the Rich Little Christmas Carol special. I used to watch this every year on HBO beginning when I was a six years old. Even then I had the vague feeling that these were cornball jokes a little past their due date. My wife's description of Rich Little says it best: he really doesn't do impersonations any better than your average suburban dad could do. I mean, really, does Johnny Carson really go "Aaaww" so much? Was Bogart ever that tickish with his lips and teeth? Still, I have as much fun watching this each year because, darn it all, it DOES seem like something my dad could do just as well, and Rich Little seems to be having so much fun trying to do it. (Trying is the operative word: he doesn't always succeed, but you love him just the same.) It's like watching a home movie, and loads of fun. (I haven't watched Robin Hood, and who knows if I ever will?) Lots of fun!

5/5 Just As I Remembered It
  by Edward M. Spearline (Pittsburgh, Pa USA)
I remember watching Rich Little's Christmas Carol multiple times each Christmas on HBO as a kid back in the 80's and loving it. after they stopped airing it I never saw it again until now thanks to this wonderful DVD. It was a Christmas tradition for me as a child and now I have reinstated that tradition once again. I had searched for this title for years both on TV and on home video so I was thrilled to see it once again. Rich Little's impressions are great and work very well in this condensed version of the Dickens classic.
