You can get your Grinch in many forms these days—Jim Carrey, Benedict Cumberbatch, even Matthew Morrison—but nothing makes the heart grow three sizes like the original animated television special How The Grinch Stole Christmas! Based on the 1957 Dr. Seuss book of the same name, the 1966 classic featured the voice talents of Boris Karloff as the narrator and titular Grinch. Seuss himself penned lyrics for the special’s soundtrack, including the enduring hit “You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch.” This timeless, nostalgic treat is perfect viewing for all ages, from new young audiences to familiar fans.
