The tale of the most famous reindeer of all, Rudolph, is told in this classic Rankin & Bass special. Rudolph and his shiny nose are at first shunned from the community, but when a dense fog threatens to ground Santa and his sleigh full of toys for children, it's Rudolph and his shiny nose to the rescue!

Originally broadcast on NBC, it has aired on CBS since 1972, and is currently the longest-running annual TV special along with its sequel, "Rudolph's Shiny New Year".
