Prep & Landing is the perfect blend of Christmas spirit, humor, and entertaining characters that will keep the entire family grinning from ear to ear. Complete with two new bonus shorts – “Tiny’s Big Adventure” and “Operation Secret Santa” (which features Betty White as the voice of Mrs. Clause).
Prep & Landing is an adorable holiday story about a high-tech team of elves who ensure homes around the world are properly prepared for their visit from Santa. After working for a tireless 227 years, an elf named Wayne (voiced by Dave Foley) is upset when he doesn’t receive an expected promotion. Instead, he is partnered with an idealistic rookie elf named Lanny (voiced by Derek Richardson) to execute a special Christmas Eve mission. While on their journey, Wayne and Lanny encounter unexpected challenges that push them to their limits and ultimately threaten Christmas for children around the world. But in the end, these two elves work together to guide Santa through a raging snowstorm in order to save Christmas.
Our Take: I love watching all the holiday specials with the kids. We really enjoyed it the first time we saw it air last year. It is such a cute show that I am glad to see it finally come out. In addition to the cartoon, this video has some great bonus features. The Kringle Academy is filmed like it is being shown on a film reel. There are 3 shorts; Welcome to the Kringle Academy, Equipment Training, and Do and Don’ts. My son wanted all the gear that they showed that the elves received in training. The North Pole news is in black & white and done like a news story. The North Pole commercials are cute too. I really like how the cartoons are drawn.
I can’t wait to see Prep & Landing 2 airing on December 5.

I want to win this for my soon. This year has made us redefine what is important. So we got rid of cable, Internet, and all the extras. But we still have regular TV and the DVD player;) This would make an awesome treat for him.
