Editorial Reviews:
Remember when TV holiday specials were an event the entire family would watch together? For the first-time-ever on DVD, this delightful look back at Bob Hope’s Christmas specials allow viewers to relive the classic comedic and musical moments Hope shared with his wife Dolores and a host of celebrity friends. Fully authorized by Hope Enterprises, "Hope for the Holidays" celebrates the universal themes of family, fun and holiday spirit.

Originally broadcast on NBC from the 1950s through the 1990s, Hope’s Christmas special was an annual tradition for families across America for over 40 years. This landmark collection contains classic musical duets and comedy sketches Hope performed with special celebrity guests including Lucille Ball, Bing Crosby, Red Skelton, Joey Lawrence, The Judds, Jack Benny, Dolly Parton, John Wayne and many others. Additionally, the DVD features rare holiday bloopers from Hope’s personal collection as well as a bonus "Silver Bells" collection, featuring full performance duets with Gale Storm, the beautiful Shirley Jones, a young Marie Osmond, Olivia Newton-John in the 70's and country superstar, Reba McEntire.

Summary: Bob hope Christmas
Comment: This DVD was enjoyable, but it was mostly later stuff. 70's,and 80's. I did enjoy it, but I am still looking for the earlier stuff.

Summary: A Great Trip Down Memory Lane
Comment: What a great video to add to your Christmas collection! Entertaining for both young and old. Many great clips from Bob's USO Christmas shows as well as from his All American football teams. The bonus features of bloopers will have you rolling on the floor laughing. I highly recommend this video for everyone.

Summary: Fast Forward Special
Comment: I appreciate the work Bob Hope did for the service men and women of our country but his specials were a bore. He was not a comedian who wrote his own material, he just read the cue cards. The humor was, well, pretty bad. The guests on this Christmas show are an interesting lot but are in horrible skits. I found myself fast forwarding halfway through most of the sketches. His family should let people remember him as "funny" instead of releasing this stuff to remind the public he really wasn't.

Summary: Bob Hope - You couldn't do better
Comment: My dad got to see Bob Hope over in England during WW-2. I missed him by a day in Subic Bay, Philippines. Bob Hope is said to have been the greatest comedian ever. Who am I to argue? I lived for his Christmas TV specials every winter, and I rolled on the floor to his banter with troops and with the other stars. This is a very nice collection of some of his best holiday stuffing guaranteed to renew your holiday spirit. Little else needs to be said. Just get it and laugh yourself unconscious.

Summary: A special Special
Comment: This Christmas special was done near the end of Bob Hope's life and it features family and friends reminiscing with him about some of his favorite moments from the various Christmas specials he did over the years. We watched it several times over the holidays. My kids liked it, but my mother was particularly enchanted by it. It brought back a lot of memories--for which we eternally thank Mr. Hope!
