From All of Us to All of You


From All of Us to All of You is an animated television Christmas special, produced by Walt Disney Productions and first presented on December 19, 1958 on ABC as part of the Walt Disney Presents anthology series. Hosted by Jiminy Cricket along with Mickey Mouse and Tinker Bell, the special combines newly produced animation with clips from vintage animated Disney shorts and feature films, presented to the viewer as "Christmas cards" from the various characters starring in each one.
Starting in 1963 and continuing through the 1970s, re-airings of the special would include preview footage of the studio's new or upcoming feature films. Beginning in 1983, it was expanded to 90 minutes and retitled A Disney Channel Christmas for airing on cable television's The Disney Channel. A home video version of the special, retitled Jiminy Cricket's Christmas, appeared on VHS, Betamax, and laserdisc in 1986.
The show has been shown infrequently in the US in recent years, but in the Nordic countries the show has been broadcast every year since 1959, and has become a holiday classic. Ratings show that around 40% of all Swedes watch it on Christmas Eve, the record being just over half the population.
This special has yet to see a DVD release.

United States

In the US, the show originally aired on ABC and occasionally afterwards on NBC. The original version included Walt Disney's introduction where he has been cricket-sized, because, as Mickey and Jiminy would say, Christmas is bigger than all of them. The American version not been shown on network television since 1980.
The original American version features the following shorts:
As well as clips from the following feature films, labeled in the special as "Memorable Moments":
The special ends with Jiminy Cricket sharing his memorable moment, his song "When You Wish Upon a Star", which he states "symbolizes faith, hope and all the things that Christmas stands for".
Starting in 1963 and continuing through the 1970s, all of the scenes with Walt and Tinker Bell's intros, as well as Santa's Workshop, were replaced by a teaser for Disney's new or upcoming feature films, including The Sword in the Stone, The Jungle Book, The Aristocats, Robin Hood and Pete's Dragon. The 1979 broadcast aired the 1951 Donald Duck/Chip 'n' Dale short Corn Chips, and the Aristocats returned in 1980 to promote the cartoon's re-release.

In Sweden, the show is called Kalle Anka och hans vänner önskar God Jul. It is broadcast on SVT1 at 3:00 p.m. as part of the channel's traditional Christmas Eve programming, including a live host, most prominently Arne Weise from 1972 through 2002. The title reflects the fact that Donald Duck is far more popular than Mickey Mouse in Sweden. The montage is narrated by Bengt Feldreich, dubbing the original English voice of Jiminy Cricket.
The special, which is typically referred to as simply Kalle Anka, along with its characters and cartoons, are ingrained in Swedish pop culture as a Christmas tradition. The popularity of Kalle Anka in Sweden as a television event was influenced by several factors, including the fact that for the ten years since the special's original premiere in 1960, SVT1 was the only television channel in the country, and even then, the country's public broadcaster Sveriges Television had a monopoly on television broadcasting until the 1987 launch of the country's first commercial channel. At the time, it was also one of the few occasions that U.S.-produced animation was broadcast on Swedish television. Kalle Anka has remained one of the most-watched television specials in the country: usually drawing more than five million viewers up until the 1990s, and still drawing 3.3 million viewers in 2019.
Due to its legacy and prominence, the special has remained relatively unchanged. The Swedish public has been protective of Kalle Anka, resisting any significant changes to the special's content: in the 1970s, when SVT's head of children's programming disclosed plans to discontinue the special due to growing anti-commercial sentiment in the country, public outcry resulted in the special being maintained. A similar backlash was faced in 1982 when Ferdinand the Bull was replaced with The Ugly Duckling—a change that was quickly reverted the following year. In 1992, Weise planned to pre-record his hosting segments so he could spend Christmas with his family, but backed down after receiving criticism for breaking the tradition of hosting it live. In a 2007 interview, Weise quipped that hosting the special had affected his personal life, stating that he had three divorces as a result of it. In 2012, Disney decided to edit the Santa's Workshop segment, removing "cultural stereotypes", that had been restored to the episode in 1983, provoking another public debate.
