Animation: Yeah, the animation is actually pretty good for a cartoon despite the rather rough quality, as the character animation is really well done during the fast paced action/slapstick scenes or just the Reindeer Rumba (a pretty fun musical number at the end) The backgrounds are pretty good considering they're not in a generic suburbia for most of the special like they normally would in an episode, with the cabins looking pretty Christmas-y along with the snow & lights outside in the streets setting up a nice & cosy mood. There isn't really much else to say about the animation if I can be honest other than the quality being rough as mentioned before, but for what it is, it's pretty good for something like this!
Characters: There isn't really much characters in this other than the main ones, so this one will be pretty quick! Goofy is pretty much the same clumsy yet kind hearted character despite embarrassing his son & inadvertently causing disaster everywhere. He is of course likeable & Bill Farmer, as always does a great performance! As for his son, Max, he's pretty much just the typical 90s kid that tries to be cool &, ahem, 'hip' & honestly, it makes him feel pretty dated & at times can come across as unlikeable due to being embarrassed by his dad & feeling disappointed in him for 'ruining Christmas' despite it not being his fault. Pete, the kinda antagonist, has enough of Goofy's Christmas decorations taking all of his electricity & plans to leave with his family, which ironically ends up going wrong thanks to Goofy following him along with his wife Peg being caring yet feisty & big-mouthed, his son PJ being Max's best friend & trying to be 'cool & 'hip' & his young daughter Pistol being a hyperactive motormouth. Despite Max & PJ feeling really dated & all of them not really being developed besides Pete being worried about Goofy despite keeping his jerk-ish demeanour, the other characters are pretty funny thanks to their personalities (especially Peg, she's just so hilarious at the end).
Honestly, Have Yourself a Goofy Little Christmas isn't really the best Christmas special out there with a predictable story despite the fun comedy, rather nice animation despite the rough quality & the characters being fun despite a few of them being dated & not being as developed. The only people I can really recommend this to is people who watched the show when growing up (so not really me since I barely remember this) since they don't really do anything for newcomers to establish the characters.
