One by one, Generation X's favorite holiday specials are hitting big anniversaries, reminding us that we're about to hit middle age ourselves. Last year, A Charlie Brown Christmas turned 40, much to our chagrin. Now it's The Grinch's turn as the classic cartoon version of Dr. Seuss's How The Grinch Stole Christmas will celebrate it's 40th anniversary with an extended special, which ABC will air on December 12.According to the network's press release, this "sepcial edition will include a "making of" documentary, including interviews with Theordore "Dr. Seuss" Geisel, director Chuck Jones, and many of the other people who helped put the show together back in 1966. Considering Geisel, Jones, and many of the other people involved are dead, I'm curious to see how long ago these interviews were done.
