Help with Connections: "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"

The list of Movie Connections for the TV special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964) (TV) at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058536/movieconnections/ appears to be mixed up in terms of what titles the special is "followed by". Here is the list as it appears now:

Followed by:

Frosty the Snowman (TV Short 1969)

Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town (TV Movie 1970)

The Year Without a Santa Claus (TV Movie 1974)

Frosty's Winter Wonderland (TV Movie 1976)

Rudolph's Shiny New Year (TV Movie 1976)

The Easter Bunny Is Comin' to Town (TV Movie 1977)

Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July (TV Movie 1979)

Frosty Returns (TV Movie 1993)

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer & the Island of Misfit Toys (Video 2001)

The Legend of Frosty the Snowman (Video 2005)

A Miser Brothers' Christmas (TV Movie 2008)

Some of these specials I've never seen, and it's been many years since I saw most of them ... but this list appears to connect some unrelated specials to each other. 

Part of the problem may be that Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July put the main characters from two of these separate continuities into the same continuity. But when other series get combined -- two that come to mind are Freddy vs. Jason (2003) and AVP: Alien vs. Predator (2004) -- IMDb uses the "spin-off" connection rather than trying to present all the Nightmare on Elm Street films as following Friday the 13th, or all the Predator films as following Alien.

Could someone more familiar with these titles explain which titles should follow which other titles?

Hi gromit82-

Thank you for reporting! Once we have further confirmation/information on which titles should follow, we can help on fixing them. 

Cheers!
