My only biggest complaint with the Rankin/Bass specials are that the animation is choppy. Even though they are timeless and lovable, they could have taken a few lessons from Disney (when it was still about animation instead of cheesy sitcoms and teen idols) to learn how to animate better.
Still, I wouldn't blame them for the animation, though. If you watched documentaries on stop-motion animation, you would know that it is more time consuming than most forms of animation. Heck! It's pretty impressive that a certain Halloween/Christmas film is able to be animated so fluently considering how much effort is needed to create stop-motion films.
