I love animation from Rankin/Bass, along with Walt Disney Studios, Hanna-Barbera, and Max Fleischer Studios. This is also one of my favourites out of the three Easter specials, along with "The First Easter Rabbit" from 1976. You know, I was very lucky to buy it on DVD, because they don't show it on TV anymore. Dammit!
I love it whenever Peter lies and his left ear droops. Of course, I am left-handed, so it would be the right ear. I also love the Valentine's Day skating party scene, where he meets Donna, a cute little bunny. The casting for Peter Cottontail is, in my opinion, top-notch, with Danny Kaye as Seymour S. Sassafras, Antoine, and Col. Wellington B. Bunny and Vincent Prince as January Q. Irontail. I love the talents of Vincent Price. And Scooby Doo's Casey Kasem as Peter Cottontail himself.
