Thanksgiving Toons: Grams Bear's Thanksgiving Surprise (Care Bears Family, 1986)

 When the Care Bears changed animation studios from DIC to Nelvana in season 2, there came with it two bigger changes. One was a title change to Care Bears Family. The other was shifting from 1st run syndication to ABC, where it spent 1 1/2 seasons before being cancelled in the winter of 1988.

From that 1st ABC season comes this Thanksgiving episode, "Grams Bear's Thanksgiving Surprise", in which a human enemy, Sour Sam, schemes to ruin the holiday.


ABC's association with Nelvana began a year earlier when the Canadian studio was given a license for a pair of Star Wars animated series, Ewoks & Droids, and continued into the early 90's.

No rating.
