Heard lots of good stuff about Rankin Bass. Plus they contributed to the birth of Studio Ghibli. R I P to a man that made my childhood just a little bit more awesome.

A shame.
Viewing all the videoes you posted here, it made me think that the Lemmiwinks music (you know, from South Park, where the gerbal or mouse from the class is on an adventure inside mr. slaves ass) was inspired by "The Hobbit":

I remember watching "Ballad of Smokey the Bear" one time on TV when I was a kid.
