Prancer (w/ Matt and Jeremy)

What's up, dudes? It’s one of the most depressing Christmas movies ever, and also a ripoff of “Pollyanna.” Yes, it’s “Prancer!” I've got Santa Ambassador Matt Spaulding from North Pole Radio, and Jeremy Phelps the Alamo City Santa here to discuss it.

In this 1989 film, 8yro Jessica Riggs believes in Santa Claus. Her father and older brother seem to believe she's too old to do so, and even her best friend Carol has long since given up believing. When Jessica discovers a wounded reindeer in the woods near her home of Three Oaks, Michigan, she's convinced it's Prancer, Santa's missing reindeer. Of course, she becomes determined to take Prancer to a local ridge so Santa can come and retrieve him.

Eventually, she tells a mall Santa she has the reindeer, and her belief becomes a source of inspiration for the town. Unfortunately, her dad, facing hard times, sells the animal. As she tries to free it, Jessica falls and injures her head. Her recovery and naïveté move her father, and he helps her return the reindeer to Santa.

Loud out of tune singing? Yup. Cantankerous reclusive widow? Got it. Ambiguous magical ending? Only with golden ‘80s special effects! So grab your copy of Yes, Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus, free Prancer, and lead him back to Santa with this episode!
