Disney+ announced today that they are bringing back the sequel series to the Santa Clause movie franchise back for a sequel season. Tim Allen and Elizabeth Mitchell will reprise their roles as Mr. and Mrs. Santa Clause.
Since I don’t have the streaming service at home, and I only watch it when I donate platelets, this sounds like spoiler alert. And now, I am ad that I know how the season ends.
But, I will still watch because it is actually really enjoyable. If you have Disney+, then I recommend watching it. It is sweet, like the Christmas cookies we put out for Santa to eat!
Tim Allen was on The Kelly Clarkson Show today, and she asked him about a photo he shared of himself with Bob Saget, Rodney Dangerfield, Jon Lovitz, and Robin Williams. The daytime talk show host wanted to know what was going on behind the snapshot.
The Last Man Standing told her that Mork doesn’t shut up, and the Man Who Got No Respect wasn’t getting any respect. As in, Dangerfield was trying to say something but Williams wouldn’t shut up long enough to let him talk. So Allen was laughing because he was waiting for Dangerfield to have a “nervous breakdown.” Which he didn’t have. Saget wanted to go eat at the buffet. And Lovitz wanted everyone to know he was Lovitz.
So if you ever wondered what comedians do when they meet up in person, now you know. And I wish I were a fly to hear what they were saying.
Tim Allen is back in the red suit for the Santa Clauses on Disney+. So when he was walking the carpet for it at D23, Extra wanted to know if he would ever play Tim “Tool Time” Taylor again.
The actor told Katie Krause, “I talk to the people on ‘Home Improvement’ all the time. All of us say the same thing. This is a question that always goes back up to Disney. They keep playing around with the idea. And it’s up to them, not up to us. We would revisit that in a heartbeat.”
I don’t know what Disney is waiting for. With The Conners and The Goldbergs on their last breaths, it is time, tool time, to bring back a show that is a fan favorite for so many reasons.
It has been 15 years since Tim Allen played Old Saint Nick. And he feels that now is the perfect time for him to bring back The Santa Clause. So he teamed up with Disney+ to reprise his role for a series that is about him finding a replacement.
Scott Calvin (Allen) is about to turn 65, and he realizes that he is not getting any younger. Therefore, he thinks it is time for him to hand the sleigh over to someone younger so that he and his family can enjoy their final years together away from the North Pole.
Who will be the next person to sign The Santa Clause? We will find out when the series streams later this year.
I, for one, am looking forward to it. I told my friends over Christmas; I wish we could get a fourth movie in the franchise. This is even better because we are getting so much more.
