The Grinch is a popular cartoon character created by Dr. Seuss. He first came out in the 1957 children’s book, How the Grinch Stole Christmas!. This was stuck with in 1966 by a popular television special also entitled How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s MGM Animation/Visual Arts studio, and directed by Chuck Jones.

In 1977, Seuss reacted to the fan request for more Grinch tales by writing Halloween Is Grinch Night, a Halloween special that aired on CBS. Like its predecessor, the sequel was recognized at the Emmy awards. In 1982, Marvel green-lit The Grinch Grinches the Cat in the Hat, which was also produced by Dr. Seuss, under his real name, Ted Geisel. This third special garnered two Emmy awards.

The Grinch is considered a Christmas standard, and parodied/featured outside the Dr. Seuss brand frequently around the holiday season. The persona is referenced by the media often in instances where a holiday display is desolated from vandals, or holiday burglaries are committed. Outside Christmas, the term “Grinch” is synonymous with “grouch”, as in someone that shows great disdain for something wholesome.
