When Jake objects, Austin agrees to give him another week in order to find Grandma before going through with the deal. During this time, Cousin Mel comes up with a new plan to sell the store to Austin by tricking Grandpa into giving her his power of attorney. Nine months pass without Grandma and the store's business drops. Cousin Mel finds a letter that she quickly hides from the others. ![]() The next morning, Grandma is indeed missing and the police find an imprint of her in the snow, along with her belongings. Jake and his grandparents are the only ones in the family to believe in Santa Claus, further supported by them witnessing the film's signature accident occurring. Cousin Mel, who plans to sell the store anyway, sabotages Grandma's fruitcake by adding an ingredient with hopes that they won't sell. Grandma tells Austin that his method of trying to make Christmas easier is not really for the best and refuses to sell the store. The store happens to be the only piece of property not owned by Austin Bucks, the wealthiest man in town, whose corporation specializes in making Christmas easier and less involved for the town's busy residents. Jake Spankenheimer's grandmother owns a small general store in the town of Cityville. The film subsequently airs on The CW (the successor to The WB) and AMC, and also aired on Cartoon Network, Boomerang, and Freeform. The title and story are based on the 1979 novelty song of the same name. The special was first released on home video in October, and then aired on The WB network on December 21, 2000. (I didn’t need to see Granny undies though, that was too much.Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer is a 2000 animated Christmas television special directed by Phil Roman. It’s about Grandma hanging out with all the other dead people. Mel’s plan is trick Grandpa into signing. No scheme on underhanded trick, it’s kind of nice that they didn’t stock rich guy number 9. I will add that Austin isn’t playing the evil rich guy yeah really, like when Mel offers him the store he tells her, she can’t sell because her name isn’t on the deed, and only Grandma and Grandpa can do it. Austin Bucks comes to the store, because Mel asks him to come over. ![]() People aren’t shopping at Grandma’s store because she’s not there which bodes well when she dies in the future, because she’s not dead. Never seen something based off a song try so hard to force the lyrics into the special before. The montage, still has forced lines from the song. The police woman calls Grandma “The old broad” which is not a line you are expecting, but am now not expecting it. I mean, they went right for it, you saw the title Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer and well they are giving you a grandma getting run over by a reindeer. The special starts with the famous song and grandma getting run over by a dang reindeer. He is being the adult version of main character Jake Spankenheimer, who is talking about his grandma. The narrator for the special is Elmo Shropshire, who is the singer of the original song so, that’s nice touch. I’m going to insert a slight personal opinion: This is a special I do watch every year, even though it’s not the best it’s still a weird thing to just watch for fun for me. ![]() Well, you don’t have her get crunched to death by a reindeer, because Children are watching, and because need to fill 50 minutes of run time. (Merry Christmas!) So, how you make a special based off the idea of a woman getting crunched to death by a reindeer. Mostly because it’s a weird song about a Grandma getting crunched to death by Santa’s Reindeer. For many years it ran on Cartoon Network, a couple times on Freeform, it aired on the WB each year, and still does on the successor network, the CW. “Grandma Got Runover by a Reindeer” is a special that first ran on October 31st 2000, on the WB network and is based on the song of the same name.
