Speaking of obscure but excellent Christmas Season viewing choices, you should check out Olive the Other Reindeer. It was an animated television special, but has since been released on DVD. The plot concerns a dog named Olive, voiced by Drew Barrymore(!), who hears Santa Clause saying on the radio that one of his reindeer are sick and "We need to count on all of the other reindeer."
The main joke is that Olive mis-hears him and rather than "all of the other reindeer" thinks he said "Olive the other reindeer"! So, determined not the let down Santa Clause, the little dog travels accross the world to the North Pole. Along her adventure, she meets a bus driver who aides her on her quest. The bus driver claims he understands Olive's troubles because "I used to think the pledge of allegence was about me, Richard Stans."
Lots of fun.
