I watch the trilogy every Christmas, I am looking forward to this.

And I am 100% prepared to be disapointed when Tim Allen says something abhorrent and gets it canned.

Why do they keep insisting on making more sequels to a movie whose entire premise was a legal pun.

Did people seriously not get sick of them after the third one?

Like the first one was pretty good but, the sequels were not.

The original movie is a masterpiece and a top 3 christmas movie (Elf and Jingle All the Way being the others). The sequels are bad and then atrocious. This series is a bad idea.

So all the folks who said they were done with Disney because of Tim not voicing Buzz will they uncancel Disney and watch this?

Honestly, if anything, this show has the best in-universe justification to write him off. It's literally the plot of the first movie.

"Where is <Insert Tim Allen's Character's Name>?"
"He lost the coat and this new guy put it on."
Audience: I 'member

Remember when conservatives were throwing a big fit claiming that Disney "fired" Tim Allen as the voice of Buzz for "not being woke enough" even though this fucking series was announced to be in development with him in it months ago?

As a kid, I tried watching the audio commentary of the second or third movie and the director started off acting like everything with Santa was real and I thought it was just an opening bit, but it kept going and I shut it off.

Finally a TV series where Tim Allen goes house to house giving children cocaine instead of trying to sell it at airports. Thank you, Disney.

I'll watch for the nostalgia.

Disney better have a talk with Tim and take his twitter away.

People have been regularly rewatching all three films on D+ during the holidays. All the films are in the top US trending.

... So yeah, there's an audience.

2 sequels exist and it's pure garbage

Also what happens to Charlie?
he must be in jail.

"The Santa Clauses" is set some time after the events of "The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause" and picks up with Scott Calvin on the brink of his 65[SUP]th[/SUP] birthday. Realizing he can't be Santa forever as he suddenly starts to lose his Santa magic, he sets out to find a suitable replacement Santa while preparing his family for a new adventure in a life south of the North Pole.

he has too. all the shenanigans hes been into.

also i thought santa doesn't really age. he just dies off if everyone stops watching his movies.

If we go by cannon he stated in that film that we wanted to stay in the family business and become the next santa

I hope the series is about people discovering that when Santa dies they become Santa. So Tim Allen spends the entire series trying to avoid being assassinated by deranged people who want to be Santa.

even weirder imo that the last movie is nearly 20 years old. i could understand if they rebooted it with new cast or something
