I remember seeing the first half of this at Christmas when I was about 13 and up until now the only part I could remember was the mention of the 4th of July in Olive's opening song. Also I actually thought Olive was a reindeer but she is really a dog and an endearing character who was superbly voiced by Drew Barrymore who was particularly recognisable in this special.

Olive is not your ordinary, average dog. Nope, she's a Christmas-loving pooch who stepped in to save the holiday when Santa almost considered canceling his usual run.

With so much war and moral decay in this world at present time, Christmas has become my favourite time of the year. Not just because it's a festive season and colourful...

This show ought to become a classic. I'm not sure why it doesn't get more attention.

During the release of Futurama, Matt Groening creator of The Simpsons made another classic: Olive, the Other Reindeer! With its cute story and beautiful drawing design that looks like it has come straight out of the Vivian Walsh children's book and onto our screens!

"Olive, the Other Reindeer" was a cute Christmas special produced by produced by Matt Groening's The Curiosity Company, the same company behind the excellent animated series "Futurama". However, unlike "Futurama", this was an animation for the whole family, being aimed at kids, but I think that adults will find this to be quite enjoyable too.

This is a holiday movie that will definitely be a classic in our home. The characters are bright and engaging, the story is warm and delightful but has a unique twist and some modern spunk to it.

Matt Groening's "Olive, the Other Reindeer" started its life quietly as animated holiday filler in the winter of 1999, and has since become somewhat of a cult classic. The story blends an original story with some help from the holiday classics into one cohesive package, with a dash of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and a villain torn from the pages of Dr.

Somewhere in the middle of this movie, our main character is in a bind in a mail truck. Looking around, she finds a package, addressed to her, that helps get her out of it.
