‘Frosty The Snowman’ Viewers Shocked By How The Kids Are Dressed

By and large, the biggest critique of the clothing choice was the fact the Frosty’s friends were apparently wearing shorts throughout the duration of the film.

Produced by Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin, Frosty the Snowman first aired on December 7, 1969 featuring the iconic Jimmy Durante as the film’s narrator. Rankin/Bass’ Romeo Miller (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer) was charged with adapting the song for television. The cartoon features Jackie Vernon, June Foray, Suzanne Davidson, Greg Thomas, Billey De Wolfe, and Paul Frees in voice acting roles.

After the original cartoon aired in 1969, several sequels using the character’s likeness were eventually spawned including Frosty’s Winter Wonderland (1976), Rudolph and Frosty’s Christmas in July (1979), Frosty Returns (1992) and the straight-to-video The Legend of Frosty the Snowman (2005).

You’re Gonna Catch A Cold!

Must not be that cold out if the kids are wearing shorts and skirts. Still one of my favorite #Christmas shows. #FrostyTheSnowman #Frosty

In the 60’s children were tougher, they could wear shorts in the snow ;p #frosty pic.twitter.com/vl7NxveMzB
