Funny / Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer

C'mon, you have to admit that this movie made you giggle at some points.

• "Grandpa's Gonna Sue the Pants Off of Santa" is sort of hilarious in a way, with I.M. Slime's deadpan voice in the background spouting out random Spanish and Latin lines such as "No pantalones!" and "Vamanos!".
  • Also, because Mel and Slime are doing the samba with fruit baskets on their heads with Hawaiian/Brazilian music in the background, singing with voices that sound like roosters screaming.
  • "Your share as Grandpa's financial advisor is.....'woof'." "WOOF?!?!"
• The way "Grandma's Spendin' Christmas with the Superstars" gets started:
  Mel: It's right in these papers, all you have to do is sign.
  Grandpa: Sing?
  Mel: No, sign.
  Grandpa: Sure!
  Mel: So SIGN!
  Grandpa: I'd rather sing!
• The whole special—if not for the cheesy Plot Holes, how Narmy everyone acts, and the shoehorned fruitcake 'jokes'. It's pure unadulterated Narm Charm; most people would be lying if they said they didn't enjoy the hell out of this show.
• "I'm Grandma! And I'm not missing! I'm right here."
  • "That woman is a fraud! Grandma doesn't know who she is!" Cue massive Face Palm from I.M. Slime.
• As Cousin Mel is admitting to everything she'd done in court, the way she offhandedly states "I'm behind this evil trial" is hilarious.
• Grandma getting run over again.
• I.M. Slime introducing herself and Jake's reaction (along with an out-of-nowhere beat).
  IM Slime: Mel's attorney, I.M. Slime.
  Jake: You said it, not me.
  (cue Beat)
• Narrator Jake's line about fruit cake.
  Jake: The way I see it, you can divide the world up into two groups: people who like fruit cake, and all the rest of us!
  • And in the resulting sequence, the shot for "one's enough to give the whole state of Kentucky a great big bellyache" is of Kentucky burping.
    • "So, what'd you do today, Frank?" "Well, I animated the state of Kentucky belching. *sighs* Livin' the dream."
• Grandma got run over by a reindeer, all right. And as incredible as that was, it almost put an end to Christmas.
  • "I love how he describes his Grandma being pummeled as incredible, and then follows it up with the actual bad news, that it almost ended Christmas. I think this guy's way too accepting of violence to the elderly."
• This quote:
  Mel: "Since Grandma is nowhere to be found, and the man in the red suit admitted he ran over her, I demand you have Santa arrested for the disappearance of Grandma!"
• The fact that, for some weird reason, they decided to name the main family "Spankenheimer".
• How embarrassed the reindeer Jake brings in for demonstration purposes is about going hog wild over the reindeer nip-spiked cake in the courtroom.
  Reindeer: (sheepishly) I couldn't control myself...
• One of the few unironically funny tidbits in the film is when Cousin Mel is gloating about how no one can stop her Evil Plan when someone (Quincy disguised as a forest ranger) knocks on the cabin door. When Mel wonders who that could be, Grandma bluntly responds "How should I know? I don't even know who I am." Susan Blu's deadpan delivery of the line is what makes it so hilarious.
• When everyone dresses in black after Grandma's disappearance, Daphne uses it as an excuse to have a goth phase.
