I remember catching the tail end of this when it aired on ABC family and when the Grinch’s mother said “now clean your room” my mother was like “Oh brother”
I think what forgives this special was this being the very 1st time Grinch and The Cat could be set up as adversaries ! Other incarnations would be the puppet Suess show many years later. Though I do agree, the Chuck Jones Grinch and GRINCH NIGHT version could not be easily swayed like this one. Maybe the CG one too, but who cares.

The ORIGINAL Multiverse Of Madness
So we reach the end of the DFE/Marvel era of the Dr Seuss special and the last to air on network television. Next stop, Ralph Bakshi and TNT.

I don’t care how cheesy it is, that mother song gets me every time
