Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I love this show and find myself playing it over and over during the holiday season. However, this DVD is very poor quality. There is another for sale with Judy in a red dress that I own as well - very different quality.The Judy Garland Show, Vol 03 - The Christmas Show (Show 15)

Spend a December evening with Judy Garland! This episode from her CBS - TV show, recorded December 6, 1963 captures the great entertainer and her kids, Liza Minnelli and Lorna and Joe Luft, in a one-hour songfest taking place in the family living room. Garland is mostly a spectator, encouraging the 17-year-old Liza and the younger kids, Lorna (who displays a big voice on "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" and went on to have her own performing career) and the less-assured Joe (who sings one of the many non- seasonal selections, "Where Is Love," during which an anxious Garland can be glimpsed mouthing the words along with him). But she does sing two of her most memorable film songs -"Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "Over the Rainbow"- plus "Little Drops of Rain" and she can still kick up her heels. Even one of her flubs produces one of the best moments: she joins Mel Tormé at the piano for his "Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)," and when she botches the lyric, he gently chides her, "Close!" Also on hand are Liza's "beau," Tracy Everitt, a dancer on the series, and clean-cut pop star Jack Jones, who sings his Grammy-winning hit "Lollipops and Roses" as well as a nice a cappella version of "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" with Tormé.
