It was beautiful. Having seen this show at least 30 times in my life, This was the best ever. PQ was great. Since it was made in 1964...
Even my wife was excited to see it in HD and she could care less any other time..
Goofs for
Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964) (TV)
Miscellaneous: Although the film was copyrighted and released in 1964, the Roman-numerals copyright date in the main titles is shown as "MCLXIV", which would be the year 1164! What a difference an "M" makes!
Continuity: The head elf's voice is clearly a different actor when he's conducting the choir.
Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Mrs. Claus goes out the door after Santa, the sound of the door slamming occurs before the door is shut.
Continuity: According to Sam the Snowman's narration, it was the day before Christmas Eve when Santa Claus initially decided to cancel Christmas due to the bad weather. That same day, however, Santa asks Rudolph to guide his sleigh "tonight" (that is, Christmas Eve).
Continuity: Santa's sleigh is normally pulled by eight reindeer - Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder and Blitzen. When Rudolph is added to the team, he becomes the ninth reindeer. However, in all the sleigh flying scenes, only seven reindeer are shown pulling the sleigh.
Factual errors: Male reindeer lose their antlers around early December and don't grow back in time for Christmas. Female reindeer never lose their antlers, so the reindeer pulling Santa's sleigh should be females. But Coach Comet and the other reindeer on Santa's team are all males.
Revealing mistakes: When Clarisse and Mrs. Donner leave the cave to search for Rudolph, their shadows disappear as soon as they are out of the cave, indicating that they were removed as soon as they were out of range.
