We watched Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer last night on CBS. As near as we
could tell the airplane danced on its tail, which would make it a
'taildancer' I suppose.

Does anyone know for sure what was wrong with the airplane?

Reading the links below we learn:

The girl doll was nuts.
Yukon Cornelius finds a peppermint mine in the first airing.
A write-in campaign changed the ending after the special first aired.
The 1964 talent got paid for three years only, the late Burl Ives is still
getting paid.

But we don't know for sure why the airplane is on the Island of Misfit Toys.
Hmm?

What followed Rudolph on CBS? A murder/bodies/satanic message/CSI type show.
Also, DURING Rudolph, AIG had a commercial that had something like 'Santa is
not real' as a printed message tag line. What the #^%*??
