Trivia
The studio originally wanted Benedict Cumberbatch to voice the Grinch using his natural voice, but Cumberbath felt that, since the rest of the cast is American, the Grinch should have an American accent.

Goofs
The theme song describes the Grinch as having yellow teeth, but his teeth are white.

Quotes
Grinch: [looks at Fred] Well, Santa had eight reindeer, he looks like he ate the other seven.

Crazy credits
Cindy-Lou asks Santa-Grinch to bring something to make her mom's life better. Over the end titles, we see that The Grinch has created a number of labor-saving devices, which do indeed make her happier and her life easier.

Alternate versions
The UK release was cut, the distributor chose to remove a use of mild bad language in order to obtain a U classification. An uncut PG classification was available.

Connections
Featured in AniMat's Crazy Cartoon Cast: The Grinchy Dumbo (2018)
