Unlike "CN Halloween Volume 3", "CN Christmas Volume 3" is probably the best one yet ! Here's a look at what episodes this DVD has:

Camp Lazlo: "Snow Beans" - For the first time on DVD, see Lazlo and his fellow Bean Scouts as they take a ski trip in the mountains.

Billy and Mandy: "Billy and Mandy Save Christmas" - The greatest holiday special to date features our two young heroes and the Grim Reaper as they rescue Santa who has turned into a vampire.

Foster's: "Store Wars" - Bloo and the gang head to the mall as they search for the perfect birthday present for Madame Foster.

Ed, Edd n Eddy: "In Like Ed" - Kevin knows too much. This misconception leads to a covert operation conducted by the Eds themselves.

Kids Next Door: "Operation N.A.U.G.H.T.Y." - The Delightful Children from Down the Lane attempt to ruin Christmas by taking all the presents in the world while the KND takes the blame.

I'm surprised there are only FIVE shows on this DVD. Maybe they ought to throw in at least one of the following:

Courage the Cowardly Dog: "Snowman's Revenge" - The North Pole is suffering global warming, and the sinister Snowman decides to make a new home... at Courage's home !

Johnny Bravo: "Johnny on Ice" - Bravo accidentally gets frozen in a chunk of ice. A scientist later thaws him out thinking that he's the missing link.

Dexter's Lab: "A Mom Cartoon" - Dexter's mother goes holiday shopping and fights -that's right, FIGHTS- her way towards the last pair of latex gloves.

I Am Weasel: "The Legend of Big Butt" - Paranormalists Weasel and Baboon take a trip to the Himalayas in search of the elusive creature Big Butt.

My Gym Partner's a Monkey: "Cool Kids" - Jake Spidermonkey becomes part of the "in-crowd" at the school's polar classes.

They'll probably save that last one as well as the Foster's Christmas special, "A Lost Claus", for Volume 4 next year.

Although I enjoyed all of the shows on this DVD, the title is deceptive. The "Camp Lazlo" episode has nothing to do with anything. The "Ed,Edd n Eddy" and "Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends" episodes are based on bithdays ... so "The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy" and "Codename Kids Next Door" are the only two episodes based on X-mas. The DVD is promoted as Cartoon Network Christmas 3 leading you to believe that the cartoons would be based around X-mas episodes. Don't get me wrong, all the episodes were good with minor distractions (heavy blinking) where commericals were to be inserted in the longer shows. Overall, I enjoyed this DVD as a lot of the good cartoons are very rarely shown anymore.

The selection of programs didn't fit the title. Only three of the programs involved Christmas and a couple weren't worth the time to watch. On the good side, the product was received in excellent condition and played without difficulty.
