The Smurfs Christmas Special (1982)


Made for NBC, airing December 13th in the US.
The story: It's Christmas Eve.
The Smurfs are busy preparing their Christmas tree and pudding for their celebration.
Meanwhile, Gargamel cannot stand the thought of Christmas or the Smurfs enjoying themselves.
He is putting together a recipe to ruin them once and for all.
Soon Gargamel finds two children at his door looking for his help.
It seems their sleigh overturned and their grandfather is stuck underneath it.
When he asks them for money and they have none, he slams the door on them.
Meanwhile, the children's' Uncle is awaiting their arrival and becomes worried.
He sends out a search party for them.
A man who wants revenge on the children's' Uncle asks Gargamel for his help kidnapping them.
Gargamel accepts the man's offer considering he claims to be able to get rid of the Smurfs for him.
While looking for the children Gargamel meets up with the search party and is offered a reward of ten gold coins for their return.
This gives Gargamel an even worse idea.
But the Smurfs find the children first.
