From all of us to all of you 1958


From All of Us to All of You is an animated television Christmas special, produced by Walt Disney Productions and first presented on December 19, 1958 on ABC as part of the Walt Disney Presents anthology series. Hosted by Jiminy Cricket along with Mickey Mouse and Tinker Bell, the special combines newly produced animation with clips from vintage animated Disney shorts and feature films, presented to the viewer as "Christmas cards" from the various characters starring in each one.

Starting in 1963 and continuing through the 1970s, re-airings of the special would include preview footage of the studio's new or upcoming feature films. Beginning in 1983, it was expanded to 90 minutes and retitled A Disney Channel Christmas for airing on cable television's The Disney Channel. A home video version of the special, retitled Jiminy Cricket's Christmas, appeared on VHS, Betamax, and laserdisc in 1986.

The show has been shown infrequently in the US in recent years, but in the Nordic countries (Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway and Iceland) the show has been broadcast every year since 1959, and has become a holiday classic. Ratings show that around 40% of all Swedes watch it on Christmas Eve, the record (in 1997) being just over half the population.

In the US, the show originally aired on ABC and occasionally afterwards on NBC. The original version included Walt Disney's introduction where he has been cricket-sized because as Mickey and Jiminy would said it, Christmas is bigger than all of them. The American version has been infrequently shown since 1980.

The original American version features the following shorts:

  • Santa's Workshop (1932)
  • Toy Tinkers (1949)
  • As well as clips from the following feature films, labeled in the special as "Memorable Moments":

  • Bambi
  • Pinocchio - "I've Got No Strings"
  • Lady and the Tramp - "Bella Notte"
  • Cinderella - "The Work Song" / "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes"
  • Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs - "The Silly Song"

    The special ends with Jiminy Cricket sharing his memorable moment, his song "When You Wish Upon a Star" (from Pinocchio), which he states "symbolizes faith, hope and all the things that Christmas stands for". Starting in 1963 and continuing through the 1970s, all of the scenes with Walt and Tinker Bell's intros, as well as Santa's Workshop, had been replaced by a teaser for Disney's new or upcoming feature films, including The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book, The Aristocats and Robin Hood. Goofy's cartoon "The Art of Skiing" was added in the 1983 broadcast.

    In Denmark the show is called Disneys Juleshow: Fra alle os til alle jer ("Disney's Christmas Show: From All of Us to All of You") and is broadcast every Christmas Eve at 4 PM on DR1.

    Norway

    In Norway, the show is called Donald Duck og vennene hans ("Donald Duck and his friends") on NRK and Disneys julekavalkade (Disney's Christmas Cavalcade) on TV Norge in 2003, and it is shown every Christmas Eve afternoon on NRK1. Most of the shorts are shown in their original English-speaking versions, with Norwegian subtitles.

    The following shorts are usually shown, in integral or edited format:

  • Santa's Workshop
  • Clown of the Jungle
  • Pluto's Christmas Tree
  • Mickey's Trailer
  • Ferdinand the Bull
  • These feature films are represented through important scenes:

  • Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
  • Bambi
  • Cinderella
  • Lady and the Tramp
  • The Jungle Book
  • Sweden

    In Sweden, the show is called Kalle Anka och hans vänner önskar God Jul ("Donald Duck and His Friends Wish You a Merry Christmas"). It is broadcast on SVT1 at 3:00 p.m. as part of the channel's traditional Christmas Eve programming. The title reflects the fact that Donald Duck is far more popular than Mickey Mouse in Sweden. The special is typically introduced and hosted live (itself an homage to Walt Disney's role in the original presentation), and was most prominently hosted by Arne Weise from 1972 through 2002. The montage is narrated by Bengt Feldreich, dubbing the original English voice of Jiminy Cricket.

    The special, which is typically referred to as simply Kalle Anka (Donald Duck), along with its characters and cartoons, are ingrained in Swedish pop culture as a Christmas tradition. The popularity of Kalle Anka in Sweden as a television event was influenced by several factors, including the fact that for the ten years since the special's original premiere in 1959, SVT1 was the only television channel in the country (SVT2 launched in 1969), and even then, the country's public broadcaster Sveriges Television had a monopoly on television broadcasting until the 1987 launch of the country's first commercial channel. At the time, it was also one of the few occasions that U.S.-produced animation was broadcast on Swedish television. Kalle Anka has remained one of the most-watched television specials in the country: in a country with just over nine million inhabitants, the 2008 airing (despite having its lowest ratings in 15 years) drew in just over 3.2 million viewers.

    Due to its legacy and prominence, the special has remained relatively unchanged (aside from the incorporation of promotions for newer Disney films). The Swedish public has been protective of Kalle Anka, resisting any significant changes to the special's content: in the 1970s, when SVT's head of children's programming disclosed plans to discontinue the special due to growing anti-commercial sentiment in the country, public outcry resulted in the special being maintained. A similar backlash was faced in 1982 when Ferdinand the Bull was replaced with The Ugly Duckling—a change that was quickly reverted the following year. In 1992, Weise planned to pre-record his hosting segments so he could spend Christmas with his family, but backed down after receiving criticism for breaking the tradition of hosting it live. In a 2007 interview, Weise quipped that hosting the special had affected his personal life, stating that he had three divorces as a result of it.

  • Santa's Workshop
  • Clown of the Jungle
  • Pluto's Christmas Tree
  • Mickey's Trailer
