The Morton Downey Jr. Show: Christmas Special (Dec 1987)

Morton Downey Jr. gets in the holiday spirit by remembering those who are less fortunate.

God bless America. And our history is something we need to be proud of. Something's are not perfect but it is our history. Real Americans don't run from our past.

The 17yo from Puerto Rico moved me to tears. Also, where can I get a Morton Downey Jr. Show sweater? He was a pioneer and one of a kind!

This is a side of Morton that's rare. I love it. 😁😁😁😁

[@Ziffel67]

Nice episode. Like how they closed it with Silent Night.

[@jessyleppert2]

Only on WWOR

[@mrg8581]

Things have only gotten worse since then.

[@paktype]

I agree. Why do you think so?

[@elgeneralxx]

Dont poo your pants in 1988

5:39 To reply to @robg2657 He doesn't sound Puerto Rican. He sounds Nuyorican in his English accent. Puerto Ricans sound white. Nuyoricans and Italians don't.

Do you have TBN stuff?

[@goldcanyon340.]

I don’t think i do, no

[@wampa81]

How can they watch mort if they’re homeless. Also “borrowing” a cigarette from someone who is homeless. Classic BS 😂

[@Boricua3lions1985]

Maybe they saw it in a shelter.

[@goldcanyon340.]

Never noticed that. Good observation.

[@wampa81]

@@Boricua3lions1985 highly unlikely.

[@leekesler2684]

Back in the day there were places that had TV on even after hours where you could watch it from outside or I'm assuming wherever they were they probably had TV such as a hospital, waiting room or whatever
