- Olive, the Other Reindeer is a CGI animated Christmas television special written by Steve Young, and directed by Oscar Moore. The feature was produced by Matt Groening's The Curiosity Company and animated by DNA Productions.
Initial release: December 17, 1999
Director: Steven Dean Moore
First episode: December 17, 1999
Olive’s speech to the bar patrons is one of my favorite Christmas speeches of all time.
Even if you aren’t feeling jolly, why make terrible memories for yourself to remember Christmas by? You don’t have to be super good, but does that really mean it’s okay to be bad around the only time of year where you don’t have to feel that way?
Such an uplifting and encouraging speech.
It's probably my favorite part of the movie thanks to the speech and the music played during it!

100th like
I used to watch this every year as a child. I'm 22 now and this movie randomly popped in my head while trying to go to sleep. I found this and now the nostalgia hurts so bad, I miss the old days.
23 and still watching it!
Makes me so disappointed it doesn't air on TV anymore
Never disappoints me
Everything you said just happened to me I was also trying to sleep and I randomly remember this
Dude I'm 20 and it just randomly popped in my head. I had it on vhs when I was 5. The combo of 2d and 3d animation weirded me out as a kid and I rememberes for some reason and now I'm 20 minutes in
Out of all the jokes, the one that gets me is when Olive is in the mail truck and reads the package "To Olive, From Deus Ex Machina." That is hilarious. For those who don't get it, that is a film term where the writers literally use a random object or person to get the character out of trouble.

Yeah that joke is way too clever.
time903 dang thats hilarious
42:19 that's a joke commet
Meta ex machina
"DELIVER THIS, PUNK!"
That's my favorite line in this movie. LOL

I read this as soon as he said that
earraped him with a paper airplane
It’s that time of the year again!
I still watch this every year.
This is such an underrated classic.
Cute plot.
Lots of funny and clever jokes.
Characters have different personalities.
Dan Castenetta as the postman is freaking brilliant.
Animation is very interesting and unique.
Perfect for the whole family.
Thanks Matt Groening for producing this!
Merry Christmas everyone!🎅🏻🎁
This is probably one of my favorite underrated Christmas specials I wish Cartoon Network would show this every year also the part where martini and the elf trying to fix the Rolex watch I always crack up laughing
Fox was the real best to air it, not Cartoon Network.
@@bradyanderson6311 No one asked you.
@@bradyanderson6311 Who would remember the 90's about all Christmas movies?
The Postman is probably the best Christmas- special villain I've ever seen! Most Christmas- special baddies just hate Christmas because they're kind of jerks, but the Postman actually has a rather valid reason for it (As someone who has seasonally worked as a loader at a UPS hub, I know firsthand what a nightmare the Christmas season can be for anyone working in the mail/ parcel delivery service; Still I got through it by instead keeping in mind that I was playing a small role in helping others have a happier Christmas). The fact that he's voiced by Dan Castellaneta, aka the voice of Homer Simpson, makes him even cooler, plus of course his villain song rules!
For that matter, ALL the songs in this amazing special are wonderful!
My mom is a retired 2nd grade teacher, and she said that one time when she showed this special to her students, they all applauded at the end of it!
Every Villain In Christmas Special Are Jerks, Such as Ms. Stout From "Legend Of Santa Paws", Professor Hinkle From "Frosty The Snowman", Princapel Pankley From "The Legend Of Frosty The Snowman", Etc!
I agree, he's so enjoyable to watch. :D
I actually agree with the villain kinda cuz i work at amazon seasonal at the moment and those boxes are heavy so I'm like what are ppl ordering cuz damn it's heavy
@Tobias Cox Well he seems much happier as a penguin at the very ending song.
@Billy Brooks What about the Postman?
This is one of my alltime Christmas faves.
Maddee Meow Meow mine too
Nova Prospekt This is my favorite as well I also like Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer The Movie too.

So many people here on a nostalgia trip lol
I was randomly searching for older specials. This, Grandma got rain over by a reindeer, scary godmother, and the johnny bravo christmas special. All mean a lot to me. Childhood memories.

Welcome to another episode of....
Why was this forgotten childhood icon cartoon in my RUclips Recommendations List?

Thank you for posting this, I watch it every year
"I'm sorry Tim, let's not fight on Christmas" the dog says to the human 💀💀💀
Like honestly. What was she implying? She delivered that line as if she was married to Tim with 3 kids.
@@hamzahargrave2410 its just great writing
A walk through my house of memories.
I'll see tomorrow, Olive!
Merry Christmas to all!
Not me, a grown adult, crying over how sweet and beautiful this children’s Christmas special is.
It's apart of my childhood 😢😢😢
Not me either
There's something charming about the art style. My grandparents don't understand it.
One of my top 10 Christmas movies
I’m not processing the fact that this dropped in 99. This feels like something that came out in the 2000’s
So you’re telling me this wasn’t a fever dream?
@Librarian Villager
You saw this along with the Nuttiest Nut Cracker in 1999 didn't you...? That's the only way this would feel like a fever dream to anyone who saw it that year.
That's how I feel my man lmao
Everytime I mention this no one has any idea what I'm talking about
Bro istg this was my thought
No! It was a timeless tale of Christmas spirit and adventure!
this movie literally crossed my mind out of no where and i was like "i kinda want to watch it" so i come to youtube and see if its here and find someone has uploaded it in full in HD. what a time to be alive.
I discovered this through.... other... interesting methods
I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this miracle
Literally same.
MrBeast you’re fake.
SAME!!!!!
Remember when Cartoon Network used to play Christmas themed movies every year?
Cesar O. S. yes, yes I do
Same here. Is Cartoon Network will air a lot of Christmas animated TV specials on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2016?
Icon copier
I member. It was fantastic!
It's 2017! WHY IS TTG STILL ON? No wonder DC movies have been getting negative reviews.
Am I the only one who never really thought of it this way.
The main character's names were Olive and Martini.
Mind blown 0.0
+animegx45 Also, Martini's voice actor played as Cypher in The Matrix.
And Olive says ever since "Tim was Tiny"
Woah. I havent ever realized that until now..
O-O 🧠+🧨=🤯
Truly, never stop believing. Olive’s love for Christmas and Tim gave her the courage to stand up to so much opposition. I mindlessly watched this as a kid, but now I’m appreciating just how heartwarming this is
You know what, that postman didn't doubt that Olive could do it. Everyone else supported her, but they didn't really think she could do it. Martini only partly believed in her when they were at the North Pole. The Postman fully believed that Olive was fully 100% capable of saving Christmas. Sure, he mocked her once when she told him, but that doubt didn't last. He believed in her, and he was committed to stopping this dog from saving Christmas.
That is true
indeed, it was very selfish of that postman
It's funny I just thought of this too and I've seen this movie so many times before. I almost feel like there could've been a moment in the movie when Olive is doubtful that they tell her the postman wouldn't be chasing her so hard if HE didn't believe she could do it
You kinda understand where he was going with how glad he was when Christmas was canceling, having to deliver so much around the holidays without ever getting a rest can leave someone bitter but he made it some sound like he was the only one doing all the deliveries. There’s plenty of postal services that have to deal with that around the holidays but they put up with it. Postal service is in fact an essential job. Maybe he picked that job because it was all he could qualify for, who knows.
Well its noticeable that the postman and Olive knew each other longer
I absolutely adored this special growing up and I am so glad that it still holds it's magic all these years later. I really wish there was more Olive content, she's truly a special dog and reindeer.
- 1999: Yeah. 😊 😃 😀 😄 😁
- 2023: No. 🙁 ☹️ 😦 😠 😡 😤
I loved this special so much as a kid. I was hoping Cartoon Network would pick it up to be it's own series...but that day never came.
At the least I was hoping they would make a sequel to this movie covering the second Olive book "Olive my Love" where Olive has an adventure with Valentine's day
Yo I just remembered this special too
Yeah this is one of my favorite books and holiday specials
I wonder what adventure Olive gets up to now.
I love this special and a series would be interesting but to be honest, I think it would loose it's charm.
I love you olive
Drew Barrymore’s voice acting for Olive is just so pleasant. I love it!
She should’ve voiced Teresa Brisby in the secret of nimh 2
*I know! Believe it or not, it's because of Olive The Other Reindeer that I love Drew Barrymore! She's wonderful. Just wonderful. 😁 You enjoy yourself, now, buddy! Happy holidays!! 😁👍☮*
@@LukaRioli you too and have a happy new year
I'd say sexy.
@@LukaRioli We've just wish, this movie could be on Disney+.
This is unironically my favorite Christmas movie, the other being Polar Express. There's just something very endearing about Olive being so determined to help however she can, even if people don't believe her and even if she's not actually a reindeer. She just honestly wants to help, even if people laugh at her; This pup that's been called weirdo most of her life for not acting "normally".
Though wtf flea bud. That misheard convo was so messed up.
Yeah, I think he needs to get his antenna checked
@@sebwritesstories Totally; perhaps the movie would’ve worked better without the flea.
@@robbiewalker2831idk the trout fondue makes me lol every time!
Either the Flea did it on Purpose to Prosway Olive to be the next Reindeer. But, again, or, he has hearing problems.
Other villains: I was abused by you as a kid, so Ive come for my revenge
The postman: Grrrr work
I feel that on a deep emotional level
Hey StupidBlueGirl!
Postman is based
As an adult I see his issues.
The scene when the penguin saved olive from the postman in the train station scene was the nicest thing the penguin has done for her
"I always thought the Pledge of Allegiance was about me, Richard Stands."
This special is much, MUCH funnier than I expected.
I always thought that the quote was "which it stands"
Wait... It isn't?
“Maybe we should have taken the train…”
It definitely got better with age 😂
Actually the quote is “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic, for which it stands one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice, for all.”
The Most Underrated Christmas Special Ever.

After Ed Asner passed away, I was looking through his IMDB to see what he was in, and seeing he voiced Santa in this awoke a memory deep inside of watching this every Christmas. Glad I remembered this movie, and Rest In Peace Ed Asner. We won’t forget you.
What about the 1998 film of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer?
@@brianodonnell4496 I never watched that one as a kid. Though Santa in that was voiced by John Goodman, not Ed Asner
This deserves a live action flim
It was Ed Asner. He was in UP
He is in ELF too.
People make fun of me for liking this movie, but I honestly don't really care. Yes it's cheesy and the visuals are goofy, but the message is still there and it's extremely nostalgic for me. I remember when Cartoon Network would show these holiday specials the minute it was December, and my child self would always be ready with the Christmas decorations. Such good times those were...
Your not alone man we all love it here.
I Love the theme song!!
how can anyone not like this?
My daughter, 19, is right there with you. It came out the year she was born, and it was to her like Charlie Brown Christmas was to me. Now we have memories of both, and Nightmare Before Christmas as well. Never forget!
I watch it once or twice a year and I'm in my 60's lol
im 19 years old and i still watch this every december
Same. 19 years old and still young at heart.
Me too!
18 right here!
I'm 30 years old and I still watch this every December! One of the greatest Christmas specials ever made!
I'm also 19 and this is my favorite Christmas movie of all time!
My Childhood bro. I remember watching this movie, the polar express, Grandma Got runover by a reindeer, and How the Grinch stole Christmas back in elementary school in December and on Cartoonetwork. Those were the days.
Heck yeah this was my childhood
@Clair Ryan it had to be grandma got ram over by a reindeer. Santa cant be prosecuted and a kid cant lawyer for crap

What's interesting is that Olive is the name of one of the daughters of Drew Barrymore, the actress who plays the voice of Olive.
@@shelbystrogen3128 No way!! It is? I didnt know that
Dude, I don't care how rough the animation is, the writing for this is incredible.
I think the animation fits this special very well! Plus it’s good to have cartoons that look different to others, as long as it’s justified! I can’t deny that bad animation exists, Angela Anaconda, Rapsittie Street Kids, Mr. Pickles and Legends of Chamberlain Heights being particularly bad offenders, but if you animate your show in a different way and it turns out to be well loved, you’re doing something right! Despite being a straight person, one of my favorite cartoons in the late 2000s is Rick and Steve The Happiest Gay Couple in All The World, and not only does the gay humor in that show crack me up, I like how they chose to animate the show with Lego-esque figures, something they pointed out in the DVD extras had never been done with commercial animation before! Olive here aired on Channel 4 here in Britain every Christmas from 2015-2019 and I’m very pleased to have gotten to watch it in that time, it’s a classic and I hope to show it to my niece (who’s 3 years old at the time of typing) someday!
The animation isn't rough, it's just stylized lol.
I'm getting some Parappa the Rapper vibes with the animation style.
This whole movies plot revolves around a flea mishearing things
lol
if you consider fleas bad. Animals are animals and one day we will be on the food chain for the next higher being.

THE JOKE FINALLY MAKES SENSE THANK YOU
Fun Fact: Michael Stipe, lead singer for REM, is the voice of Schnitzel
I thought it sounded like him!
Did not know that
That's sooo late 90's
As a longtime fan of R.E.M., I immediately smiled upon hearing his singing voice. My smile stayed throughout his character's musical number.
And believe it or not, I didn't recognize Stipe's speaking voice at all!
You don't say, I always thought Schnitzel's voice actor was John DiMaggio
The Postman's defeat is one of the funniest commuppances I've ever seen.
Yeah. Serves him right for almost kidnapping olive and martini and almost ruining Christmas.
They said Christmas 75 times. I counted. I am definitely not wasting my life.
who did this to you
Olive the other reindeer but every time they say Christmas it gets faster
I'm in tears. Literally used to watch this every single year. I had a dog named Jackie who looked just like Olive and sadly, she passed away in September of 2014. I was a Junior in High School when she passed. I'll never forget her and I just came to realization that I can't watch this because it's still hard to deal with losing your best and only friend for so many years of your life even though that, that was only 6 years ago.
I'm sorry to hear that
I'm sorry for your loss.

Back when CN was good.
Drew Barrymore and Dan Castellaneta are the best cast ever, but Ed Asner was and will always be a great Santa Claus both in this special (as well as the Regular Show holiday special) and in our hearts and minds of millions.
He's also Santa in Elf. Man, I miss that dude. RIP Ed.
i just realized this year that this is by matt groening. im noticing a lot of the same voices from futurama, especially dan castellaneta as the postman sounding like the robot devil.
I read from Wikipedia that Castellaneta won an Annie award for his voice performance as the postman, and it definitely shows.
Also it was animated by DNA Productions. The same team behind Jimmy Neutron and The Ant Bully
Omg yes!
I thought he sounded familiar
I'm so mad I didnt realize this until you said this! XD

Did you check the TV schedule for Cartoon Network for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day 2016 to have a lot of Christmas animated TV specials?
I did, Olive isn't airing unfortunately

Damn reruns of modern Cartoon Network shows like We Bare Bears, Teen Titans Go! and Steven Universe on Christmas Day 2016 but on the bright side, you can watch old-time Cartoon Network Christmas favorites on Boomerang. Go check it out and see for yourself. I miss the good old days of Cartoon Network Christmas.

This has always been my favorite Christmas movie next to Home Alone. The nostalgia is real. And crazy to think this was made by Matt Groening, many jokes on this feels like something out of Futurama tbh. Just in a kid friendly movie.

I was obsessed with retro games at the time (I had just bought an NES from a store that sold used video games and consoles) and I bought a game to go along with it. The game sucked and the console itself didn't work too well. I was disappointed so I went downstairs to watch a rerun of Olive the Other Reindeer and it made me feel better so I'll always associate this movie with me feeling better.
Also the guy who wrote this Christmas special also wrote for The Simpsons which explains why it's clever and funny. He wrote Hurricane Neddy which is one of the best episodes imo.
Olive's always been my favorite character but now that I'm 20 Martini is kinda more entertaining. Just the jokes and all the wrote in for him is hilarious to me now XD
martini is one of the best sidekicks
Carlos Rayo The Penguin who's kind of a smart alec :)
+The Flying Lion Even though it's Joe Pantoliano (person that did Francis from Goonies), he sounds more like Jon Lovitz (voice of the radio from Brave Little Toaster) to me.
I lowkey love the mailman. 😂
I love that Penguin. :)
Back when Cartoon Network had the best Christmas themed shows. Miss the golden days
Ikr?
Now, they celebrate crappy TTG specials.
@@ninjakombatant9722 exactly
IKR, it could've been another network Matt Groening could've had under his belt, then it wouldn't have gone to shit like it did over the years
@@zeroarashiuchiha7699 43:13 Mailman: Curse you Penguin and Zero Arashi Uchiha!
weird how its 3d but it follows 2d impossibilties with its style. reminds me of parappa
You can really hear the Robot Devil from Futurama when the Postman sings lol. Based Dan Castellaneta.
Don’t you just love it when RUclips recommends something that was nearly forgotten then the memories come flooding back.
Aye
Unless it’s something bad that you try to forget
@@Boedinator so true....
@@velocity5249 Not saying this is bad though, no this is absolutely fantastic and I missed it a lot.
@@Boedinator 0:39 Mailman: What are you looking at, shorty?
The animation reminds me of Parappa the Rapper.
I gotta believe!
Um Jammer Lammy Came Out in '99. It COULD Be The Same Software
@@katesociety3320 how fitting for the this movie’s theme
17 years later and I have only just realised that "Olive the Other Reindeer" is a play on "All of the Other Reindeer". wow
WTAF? :)
You lying bro
You lying lol
Sameeee
Wow...
I'm watching this at 21 for the first time since I was 8. I'm laughing at how much of this film influenced my personality and even interests. The artwork was so intriguing to me and the writing was shockingly witty and clever.
The visuals remind me of Paper Mario.
My thoughts exactly.
But this was released months before Paper Mario.
@@Smartphone775 I know. I didn't even realize this was made back in 1999.
The animation reminds me of PaRappa The Rapper with the 2D characters and 3D... everything else. Also, the first PTR game came out in America in 1997, two years before this special was made and aired. Um Jammer Lammy (a rockin' spinoff to PTR) was released the same year as this special.
@@dbzfan30 Parappa is the first thing I thought when I saw this
I loved this as a kid but the real reason I'm here nearly a month after Christmas is because the actor who plays Ralphy, one of the biggest bastards on The Sopranos, plays Martini the Pebguin in this and I think that is just fantastic
Cartoon Network isn't airing Olive ;-;
Coffee Mug valsikbum94?
Coffee Mug It can't fit into their marathon of Teen Titans Go.
Coffee Mug I just heard about this a few weeks ago, what assholes!

theguyintheworks maybe....
4:54 "Pre-Ramadan clearance sale" holy shit this movie was ahead of its time
It's not even 20 years old yet, sheesh! :)
@@vnoyceful I don't get it.
Nice profile picture
ah shucks, it's hard to find a cartoon with this amount of class anymore
This and Grandma got ran over by a reindeer are THE Christmas movies Cartoon Network loved to show. For me, it didn't really feel the same going a Christmas without watching these 2 movies.
Olive aired on Channel 4 here in the UK! Not just when it was new, but also every Christmas from 2015-2019!
This is, was, and always shall be one of my MOST FAVORITE CHRISTMAS SPECIALS! I watched it whenever it came on TV and loved it so much. It's 19 years old and still a classic to me
Olive, The Other Reindeer was also in 50 First Dates and Charlie's Angels (2000).
Now I can’t stop hearing homer simpson lmao
Krusty is Jewish so it does make sense
And Schnitzel the Reindeer was voiced by R.E.M. lead singer Michael Stipe.
Also I like how she misinterprets "all of the other reindeer" differently in the book. In the book she hears it listening to the line from Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer "all of the other reindeer" and she immediately misinterprets the line, no hard hearing flea to convince her the song's talking about her. I guess Matt Groening couldn't get the rights to use the song
What about the scene when Olive first flies, Fido sings the song?
"To: Olive
From: Deus Ex Machina
Merry Christmas"
Likely the most sublime, hilarious, intelligent & thought provoking thing ever seen in a Christmas special. Look it up. 😂🤣🤣
Odd. I like the special and all, and it's certainly funny, but it's odd that Matt Greoning, the creator of THE SIMPSONS, which pioneered modern day sarcastic humor, produced this
I have to agree with you on that.
Well the humor is pretty good in this movie, considering it's for kids...
@@ryansun9335 What about the Postman?
@Berry Blue What about the 1998 film of "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer".
Christmas...
BAH
BUG
AND HUM!
I throught he say bah hum bug
DevilWorks Productions, evil.
AngelWorks Productions, DevilWorks Productions.

Bah bug and hum, says DevilWorks
I did not know the guy who created the Simpsons did this Christmas special.
I remembered FOX promoting this special when I was 8. I remembered seeing this special for the first time and I loved it. I'm 32 now and I still watch it every year.
2:37 "Smuggling in junk food, dirty magazines,"
This was for kids, wasn't it?
