| Frosty the Snowman | comment |
Frosty the Snowman is a Christmas Special, produced by Rankin/Bass and first aired on CBS in 1969, telling the story of how a snowman was brought to life by a magic top hat. Frosty the Snowman is unusual among the Rankin/Bass œuvre in that it features hand-drawn animation (Courtesy of Mushi Productions, under the uncredited direction of Osamu Dezaki) and designed by Paul Coker Jr. who is also well-known for his artwork in MAD Magazine, instead of Rankin/Bass's usual "Animagic" Stop Motion puppet process.The script is by Rankin/Bass' favorite writer, Romeo Muller, and as usual, is built around a classic holiday tune (although technically, the original song doesn't actually mention Christmas at all), though the usual additional original songs by Maury Laws and Jules Bass are conspicuously missing. Jimmy Durante voices the special's narrator.It is notable that in the audio album version of this special, June Foray voices Karen, and indeed all the children's parts, whereas the televised version uses the voices of actual (uncredited) children.A sequel, Frosty's Winter Wonderland featuring Andy Griffith as the narrator, was produced in 1976 and the feature-length Crossover Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July (which, unlike the previous installments, utilized R/B's "Animagic" process) followed in 1979; Jackie Vernon reprised the part of Frosty in both, and over the course of them our hero acquires a snow-wife (Crystal, voiced by Shelley Winters) and even snow-kids (for everyone's sanity, don't ask how that works). A non-Rankin/Bass sequel, Frosty Returns, with John Goodman as the title character, Jonathan Winters as the narrator, and the animation made by Bill Meléndez of the Peanuts animated specials fame, was made in 1992; it was not generally well-received. In this one, the plot focuses around a secular "Winter Carnival" holiday and features an evil businessman named Mr. Twitchell that goes around spraying "Summer Wheeze", an aerosol that gets rid of snow. Apparently, the entire town hates snow. The entire film is about Frosty and a new girl named Holly singing about how good snow is. If you haven't guessed, it's a somewhat environmentally-themed short, one that would make the Planeteers cringe at how unsubtle it is with its message if it could decide whether snow is environmentally necessary or just something pretty and fun to play in. Then in 2005, another special, The Legend of Frosty the Snowman, was released on video, with Bill Fagerbakke as the voice of Frosty.Not to be confused with the somewhat similarly-themed British Christmas Special, The Snowman.This is also not the first time the song was adapted into animation. There had previously been a theatrical short created in 1954 by UPA (of Mr. Magoo fame). | |

Just Train Wrong | |
| Frosty the Snowman / int_1fb947b6 | comment |
Just Train Wrong: When Karen goes to the train station to ask for a ticket to the North Pole, the stationmaster quickly scrounges up a route with multiple transfers. The only problem is that there is no such route; the North Pole is a lifeless ball of ice in real life with only a shrinking handful of arctic critters and no actual humans, so no railroad could sustain itself up there, let alone keep up operations on a constantly-changing landscape. Even Canada's northernmost railroad lines don't go up that far, so Karen wouldn't have any way of getting Frosty up there by train anyway. The small little train that hauls the refrigerator car is a 2-2-2, which is not only exceedingly rare in the United States (being commonly used in Europe), but wouldn't be in charge of a mainline run up north with only one car full of priority perishables. Freight trains around this time would at least have a larger locomotive (like a 4-8-2 or a 2-8-4, if not an articulated), and far more cars, unless it was a local run exclusively to the North Pole (which, as noted above, wasn't possible), but even smaller runs would have used a larger engine to maintain schedule. When the freight stops to take siding, it's shown crossing a diamond, not pulling off the mainline to let the express pass, and said express is a diesel-powered streamliner with a steam-powered whistle. | |

Adaptational Sympathy | |
| Frosty the Snowman / int_39a41690 | comment |
Adaptational Sympathy: The original song didn't refer much to Frosty's plight other than him being threatened with melting in the heat. The special shows Frosty as being terrified of such a fate, his friends' efforts to help him get to the North Pole in time, and an evil magician who tries his damndest to steal Frosty's hat—the only thing keeping him alive—so he can enrich himself. | |

Crack is Cheaper | |
| Frosty the Snowman / int_573e6dbd | comment |
Crack is Cheaper: An In-Universe example; train tickets aren't exactly the cheapest things to buy, but a single ticket to the North Pole, including tax, is in the quadruple digits. And keep in mind, this special was released in 1969 when long-distance passenger rail in the United States was sharply declining due to the advent of private automobile ownership and jet airliners (commuter rail was faring better thanks to traffic congestion), so of course, ticket prices would be very high so the railroads could continue justifying the existence of their intercity passenger services (at least until they were able to pawn them off on Amtrak in 1971). And that was in 1969, it has a 2017 value of nearly $20,000 | |

Heel–Face Turn: Professor Hinkle, though only when threatened by Santa, and he still describes himself as an "evil magician" during this sequence. Of course, it helps that Santa had promised him that he'd probably get a new hat if he wrote "I am very sorry for what I did to Frosty" a hundred zillion times, so he wouldn't need his old one anymore. | |

Disney Death: Frosty gets this in every Rankin Bass special. In the original, he melts when Professor Hinkle locks him in a greenhouse, but Santa brings him back with a December wind. In Frosty's Winter Wonderland, he turns back into an ordinary snowman when Jack Frost steals his magic hat, but Crystal's kiss brings him back to life. And in Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July, he gets two Disney Deaths: first by loss of his hat, then again by melting, but as usual, neither lasts long. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Upon learning that Frosty will melt when the temperature rises, the kids decided to put Frosty on a train to the one place he won't melt: The North Pole...only to realize upon arriving that none of them have any money for the ticket. When they decide to have Frosty stowaway on a refrigerated boxcar due north instead, Karen opts to go with him. No one ever gives any thought as to how she'll get home, and she very nearly freezes to death. | |

Riddle for the Ages | |
| Frosty the Snowman / int_96a33f11 | comment |
Riddle for the Ages: It's clearly been established that Professor Hinkle/Frosty's hat has mysterious mystical abilities as it's the object that brings Frosty to life. Except it's never revealed just where the hat came from or who crafted said hat in the first place. | |

Continuity Nod: In the sequels.

He ends up swallowing his whistle again when he is introduced to Crystal, Frosty's new wife. | |

Eleventy Zillion: Santa orders Hinkle to write, "I am very sorry for what I did to Frosty," a hundred zillion times. (And then maybe, just maybe, he'll find something in his stocking the next morning). And apparently he's successful because the next time we see him, he's got a new hat! During 12 hours of night, Hinkle could have written the phrase a few thousand times at most. Perhaps, as a zillion is undefined, after Hinkle spent all night writing it Santa said "OK, that'll do." | |

Brick Joke: In the first special, a kid suggests "Oatmeal" as a name for Frosty. In the sequel, the same kid suggests "Corn Flakes" as a name for Frosty's wife. Also, in the first special, the traffic cop swallows his whistle from the shock after he realizes he was just talking to a living snowman. In the second, he remembers Frosty, but after realizing Frosty is about to get married, he does the same thing. Another one: In the first special, after coming to life, Frosty tries to count, only to find out he can't. (Well, he makes it up to five.) In the sequel, there are two gags about his inability to count, one where he thinks a two-horse sleigh has one horse, and another where he tries to skate a figure-eight but it turns out a nine. This is lampshaded in the third special where Frosty manages to count to 100 and remembers when he can barely count to four. | |
