Frosty Returns is an animated Christmas television special starring Jonathan Winters as the narrator and John Goodman as the voice of Frosty the Snowman. The special was directed by Bill Melendez and Evert Brown and features music by Mark Mothersbaugh. It first aired in 1992 on CBS. The special is not a direct sequel to the original 1969 special, as the two were produced by different companies, and feature different characters, setting and voice actors. Since Broadway Video produced this special and owned the 1969 original prior to DreamWorks Animation's acquisition of the Videocraft International catalog, Frosty Returns follows the CBS showings of the original and is coupled with the original on all DVD releases.
