I think in 1977 there was a
"Father knows best home for Christmas"
tv movie episode.

For the last several years none of the networks have shown it.

It is available on video?

There is a Father Knows Best Xmas movie. I have it on tape. I believe The Family Channel aired it awhile back. I have not watched it in years. I need to dig it out, because I remember it being a wonderful holiday treat...

Over the weekend I watched the Father Knows Best Christmas Special, and it was really quite good(I had forgotten I had recorded it). Anyway, the kids are all grown and have gone different directions, but always manage to return "home" for Christmas. This year, the kids aren't sure they are going to make it home, and while in a funk about this, Margaret and Jim decide to sell the house. After making this decision, all 3 of the kids and their families end up making it back to Springfield for Christmas. In the end, Bud ends up buying the house(as a gift for his wife), and Jim and Margaret take off in a huge motor home.

It was a great movie.

for those with a copy of this tape, would anyone be willing to make me a copy of it.

I would be more than happy to make you a copy and ship it to you. The only problem is that I recorded it on slow speed(so I could get 2 other movies on the tape), so I am not sure how great the quality would be.

I will try to make a copy over the weekend, and if it looks ok, I will send it to you. You can e-mail me at:tinky3@juno.com.

I too am searching for a copy of Father Knows Best Christmas movie--"Home for the Holidays" made (Dec 1977). I had a copy years ago, and it was accidently copied over. This is one of the Very Best Christmas movies i,v seen. But for some reason, it is not being aired for the past few years on TV nor can you purchase it. I would be ever so grateful to get a copy of this. Also
am willing to pay for the tape...copying...postage..... to send to me.
I also have a copy of the other movie made for this series---"Family reunion" if someone is interested in a copy of this. All responses can contact me at .....diana@gallatinriver.net
