The animated special continues to receive critical kudos. Nominated for a 1992 Emmy Award in the Outstanding Children's Program category, it was honored by TV Guide as the "most lushly animated" holiday program of all time.

In "Winnie the Pooh and Christmas Too!," Pooh and Piglet retrieve a letter to Santa, but while trying to add some forgotten Christmas wishes, their plans go amiss. Realizing the letter won't find its way to the North Pole in time, Pooh and Piglet decide to play Santa, with some decidedly comic results!
