It's Christmas! We watched the 1999 TV special Olive, The Other Reindeer. Olive is a dog who loves Christmas. She hears on the radio that one of Santa's reindeer has broken their leg and can't fly, and Santa will have to rely on "all of the other reindeer" to make Christmas happen this year. Olive believes it is her destiny to be this reindeer, even if she has no idea how to fly.

We have another Saturday Morning Giant episode for you, focusing on a more well-known cartoon: the Disney Channel musical feel-good comedy Phineas and Ferb.
Our titular characters are two brothers who love to invent outlandish contraptions, much to the frustration of their older sister, who can't get their parents to see the mischief they're getting into. Oh also, they have a pet platypus who's really a secret agent fighting a mad scientist.

We're getting spooooky and educational with the 1992 PBS show Ghostwriter, about a spirit orb that sends messages to a group of Brooklyn kids who love to solve puzzles and mysteries. Due to a mix-up, Jams watched only the first five-episode arc of the show and Melissa watched only the final four-episode arc. Nine episodes, across three years of the show, with two siblings trying to piece the overall story together.
