Episode 286: The Santa Clause (1994)

The Santa Clause (1994)Watch the trailer!

Happy Holidays! It's part one of our yearly pairing of holiday films, this year starting with a new take on the story of Santa. In this episode we take a look at 1994's "The Santa Clause," starring Tim Allen, Judge Reinhold, Wendy Crewson, Eric Lloyd, David Krumholtz, and Peter Boyle. Directed by John Pasquin, this film tells the story of Scott Calvin (Allen), an advertising executive for a toy company, and also a single father to his son Charlie (Lloyd). On Christmas Eve, after hearing noises on the roof, Scott scares "Santa" who falls off the roof and disappears, leaving only his santa suit. Scott and Charlie find a card that says "Put on the suit, the reindeer will know what to do." And so begins a year-long saga as Scott slowly begins to transform into Santa Claus, much to Charlie's delight, and the dismay of his ex Laura (Crewson) and her new psychiatrist husband Neal (Reinhold).
