Melinda Dillon, who played Ralphie's mother in the classic film "A Christmas Story," was not in the holiday special because her character was not originally written for the TV adaptation. The role of Ralphie's mother was instead given to actress Amy Grant, who provided her own voice and personality to the character. While some fans may have missed Melinda Dillon's portrayal of Ralphie's mother, the special still featured many beloved characters and iconic scenes from the movie, making it a beloved holiday tradition for many.
