<Ul> <Li> Frosty's Winter Wonderland--This 1976 sequel by Rankin / Bass was also written by Romeo Muller . Narration is provided by Andy Griffith (Durante had suffered a stroke that had forced his retirement in 1972 and eventually killed him). Jackie Vernon once again reprised his role as the voice of Frosty . Animation is produced by Topcraft in Japan . Unlike the original, the sequel takes place later in the winter season and is based upon the 1934 song "Winter Wonderland;" it features Frosty's pursuit of a wife and efforts to preserve him into the springtime . Furthermore, it makes no mention whatsoever of Christmas; in fact it could be considered more a "winter solstice" special than a Christmas special as it celebrates the season of winter . </Li> <Li> Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July--This 1979 Rankin / Bass feature - length sequel was filmed in "Animagic" stop - motion animation in the style of Rudolph the Red - Nosed Reindeer and Rudolph's Shiny New Year . While the Frosty specials were 30 minutes long, and the Rudolph specials were 60 minutes, this ambitious special was feature length, at 97 minutes long (120 minutes on television, including commercials). Vernon once again played the role of Frosty, in his last time for Rankin / Bass playing the voice of Frosty . This film features Frosty and his family as supporting characters . This is the only other Frosty cartoon to mention Christmas or Santa Claus in addition to the 1969 original . </Li> <Li> Frosty Returns--This 1992 half - hour special is not truly a sequel to the 1969 classic, as it was produced not by Rankin / Bass but by CBS . The characters, setting, voices and animation (by Bill Melendez) are vastly different . Despite this, it is shown with the original special every year on CBS and was even included as a bonus on its DVD release . John Goodman provides the voice of Frosty in this special, and Jonathan Winters serves as narrator . Frosty's appearance is physically different, his personality and humor have changed, and he has the ability to live without his top hat, in direct contrast with the original and its other sequels .

This movie has been bundled with the original 1969 Rankin / Bass special and the CBS sequel, and has also aired on Cartoon Network . The appearance of Frosty resembles much more the Rankin / Bass character design from their original animation, and Professor Hinkle returns in two cameo appearances--shown in a picture and flashback . Frosty is voiced by Bill Fagerbakke, best known as the voice of Patrick Star on SpongeBob SquarePants . And it, like Frosty Returns and Frosty's Winter Wonderland, also never mentions anything to do with Christmas whatsoever . </Li> </Ul> <Li> Frosty's Winter Wonderland--This 1976 sequel by Rankin / Bass was also written by Romeo Muller .
