The Santa Clauses, renewed, season 2 Tim Allen will return for more Christmas cheer as Disney+ announced today that they have renewed The Santa Clauses for a second season. In addition to Tim Allen, the second season of The Santa Clauses will also find Elizabeth Mitchell reprising her role as Mrs. Claus/Carol. “This franchise has had a lasting impact for so many families, truly becoming part of their annual holiday traditions,” said Ayo Davis, president, Disney Branded Television. “Bringing it back as a series has been a true gift, and I’m grateful to our producing partners at 20th Television and, of course, Tim Allen and team, that we have yet another reason to celebrate this holiday season.“
The first season of The Santa Clauses follows Scott Calvin (Allen) returning 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. The season finale debuted on Disney+ today, bringing the six-episode season to a close, but there appears to be more story to tell now that Disney+ has renewed The Santa Clauses.
Our own Alex Maidy reviewed The Santa Clauses prior to its debut and found a lot to like. “The Santa Clauses is not a bold reinvention of the franchise nor is it anything revolutionary when it comes to Christmas entertainment. What it does do, similar to Disney+ hit sequel Hocus Pocus 2, is find the reason why audiences connected with the original The Santa Clause and replicate it,” Maidy wrote. “By making this into a series, I felt more invested in Scott Calvin’s journey as Santa. The Santa Clauses is far funnier than the first three films combined and benefits from Tim Allen feeling energized in the role more than he has in years. This is a worthwhile watch that is a fitting revival of The Santa Clause series with welcome returns from fan-favorite characters and the introduction of new ones.” Check out the rest of Maidy’s review right here.
The first season of The Santa Clauses is now streaming on Disney+.
