    Name all The Christmas Carols Game

    Getting into the Xmas spirit, I thought this would be a great game.

    Many, many, many years ago, Charles Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol. This classic has been redone so often--and I'm pretty certain my mom owns nearly every version...and probably has seen every version. As a result, though I once liked this story, I have vowed that if I have to watch one more Christmas Carol, I'm going to shoot myself in the head.

    BUT, it would be interesting to see how many versions people can remember. Now, it can be in any format--book, TV, movie, Broadway, cartoon. It can even be a spoof. If it is based on Charles Dickens classic, you can post it.

    If it does have the title of A Christmas Carol, then list the actors/author or something that will distinguish it from all the others.

    I'll start off.

    A Carol Christmas with Tori Spelling--who plays a Scroogy talk show host.

    How does that refer to A Christmas Carol?

    My favorite Xmas carol (until I got sick of the story) was Scrooge--a musical that starred Albert Finney. Albert Finney was a great Scrooge! The woman who played Belle had a beautiful voice, and Alec Guinness was absolutely delightful as Jacob Marley. It is a pity that when they show this version on TV, they tend to cut out a funny scene later on with Marley--when Scrooge visits Hell.

    A Christmas Carol with Jim Carey, which my mom is thinking about checking out. If you guys hear that I have thrown myself in front of a train, you know why.
