The Santa Clauses

Ho Ho Ho! Christmas time is on its way. And the Clauses have a few announcements too big for Santa's sleigh. Disney+ announced a season two greenlight for the Original series The Santa Clauses, following its first season finale. Disney Legend Tim Allen will executive-produce and continue in the beloved role of Santa/Scott Calvin and Elizabeth Mitchell will reprise her role as Mrs. Claus/Carol from Walt Disney Pictures' blockbuster franchise. In season one of The Santa Clauses Scott Calvin returns after being Santa Claus for nearly thirty years, and he's as jolly as ever. But as Christmas declines in popularity, so does his Santa magic. Scott struggles to keep up with the demands of the job, as well as being there for his family. Upon discovering there is a way to retire from his post, Scott considers stepping down as Santa Claus and finding a worthy successor so that he can become a better father and husband. Season one, which premiered on November 16, is currently streaming on Disney+.

The next announcement is for you who haven't watched yet! An opportunity to watch Disney+ The Santa Clauses is coming soon to bring joy to your home without leaving your living room.
