carolmanese "Special Delivery" starring Andy Dick is one of the best TV movies that has been produced. It is a Christmas favorite for our entire family. We recorded it in 2000, the year that it was on Fox Family TV, I believe. We watch it as a family tradition each Christmas when we get together. It is so well written and could not have been cast any better than Andy Dick. It is one of the few clean family movies that has come out in the past ten years. The children, parents, grandparents and cousins all gather around the TV each year when we watch with anticipation as if we've never seen it before. I would love to have a DVD of this movie if it would be available. If not, I think it should be made available for other families to have a chance to watch this. I don't see that it is televised any more but would love to see it return to the small screen each year where clean family fun can be had by all.

Lucile Dudevante I taped this film on a whim--an ABC Family original movie, which I usually don't like--because I had already finished watching my other Christmas favorites five times apiece. I was not only happily surprised by how funny this film and its star were, but by how well-done it was, especially for a Christmas flick. I won't rehash Andy Dick--he was adorably perfect for the part of the hockey-crazy Lloyd Steadman--but I have to say that I wish this movie had caught on when it aired. Hopefully ABC Family will air it again sometime in their 25 Days of Christmas."I am the fourth wise man, coming from far away Los Angle-ees, bearing gifts of sausage, and other processed meats!" Very funny. If you're a Christmas fan in the vein of "A Christmas Story", make the effort to find this movie. Kudos, Andy!

havanese Sure it is not perfect. And yes there are over expressed stereo-types but as the movie matures these mellow into a very warm and happy movie. Enjoyable unless you expect everything underdone or never improving on a character study. Some just hate good, even over acted dorky good, finding a happy place in the world. Should be on DVD! A lost baby and a California kid in cold hockey country that actually knows hockey. A warm movie in a very cold time of year that entertains in a holiday sense without over pandering a seasonal theme. A classic in a basic warm and happy sense like a Santa Claus is Coming to Town. I mean really though those are classics (really) they are no masterpiece of storyline right?

DeathByTelevision Andy Dick made the most of his trip into low budget made-for-cable land. This was a role that many actors would have embarrassingly sleep-walked through, the kind of role that your average 90's sitcom star on the skids would have done for the paycheck - which I'm sure Dick did. But, instead of giving a half-hearted performance, he really made the most of a hokey script about a delivery man for an adoption service that loses the recipient family's baby. I found myself watching the whole thing despite my better objections. Funny guy. With all the talk of his past addiction problems, I hope he doesn't go the Robert Downey Jr. route. Hopefully he won't be stuck in made-for-cable land for long.
