Little Bill – Merry Christmas [VHS]: Little Bill’s creators–like those behind other cartoon series–could have strung colorful lights and twinkling ornaments around their character’s TV apartment and called it Christmas, but instead they reached for the real deal: an honest representation of a 5-year-old’s fuzzy grasp on the holiday spirit. One episode is dedicated to Little Bill’s anguish when Alice the Great’s flight is delayed on Christmas Eve. His crocodile tears as he and Alice sing their favorite carol by phone could melt the snow out of Cincinnati, where she’s stuck, and the unpacking of the family’s ornaments feels as stirringly sentimental as it does familiar. Additional episodes “Summertime in the Wintertime” and “Snowracer” meander from the holiday theme, but gently–because they’re both swirled in snow, leaving the merry mood undiminished. –Tammy La Gorce We LOVE Little Bill – Dixie L.

My girls (5 and 2) love Little Bill. This past Christmas, we bought our girls the Nick Jr. Christmas DVD for a long car trip. Although I thought I would lose my mind with the other two stories that played over and over, I could watch the Little Bill episode everyday. Good thing, because I think we have watched it 500,000 times.
The most amazing thing about the Little Bill stories,is that Bill Cosby has brought “every child” experiences to a child that just happens to be African American. Any child can watch these and say, “Hey, that kid is just like me!” What a wonderful gift!
I dare anyone not to get choked up as Little Bill and Alice the Great sing the Christmas Star song over the phone. I also dare anyone not to cheer on Little Bill as he races to get his most important Christmas wish to Santa in time. Will Santa get to Alice the Great home in time for Christmas? I’ll let you watch and see.
