The Grinch: Difference between revisions

m
Line 85:
* Bushroot in the ''[[Darkwing Duck]]'' Christmas episode. His motivation for being a Grinch, though, is that he has great difficulty doing his Christmas shopping and swears to make everyone else feel his pain.
* Herman the Hermit and Snively in ''[[Yogi Bear|Yogi's First Christmas]]''.
* [[Peanuts|Charlie Brown]]'s [[Sadist Teacher|teacher]] definitely qualifies for making him read ''[[War and Peace]]'' during Christmas vacation. This was actually an exaggerated version of a storyline that ran in the comic strip, where his teacher assigned ''[[Gulliver's Travels]]'' during Christmas break (not as long, but still way too advanced for grade school) and Charlie Brown didn't help matters by procrastinating.
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]''
** Homer stole gifts in "'Tis the Fiftheenth Season" accompanied by a variation of the Grinch song. The twist is that Homer [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|believed he was doing a good thing]] by getting rid of excess materialism, which would allow people to have [[True Meaning of Christmas|a more emotionally meaningful holiday]]. Not surprisingly, it just pissed people off.
