Season 2 of the Disney+ series The Santa Clauses, starring Tim Allen, lacks the Christmas spirit to be a true holiday classic. Read on for our review.
The Big Picture The most wonderful time of the year is right around the corner. Halls are being decked, lists are being checked twice, and the North Pole is once again descending into colorful, magical chaos with Season 2 of The Santa Clauses, the continuation of the wildly popular The Santa Clause film series . Season 2 continues Santa Claus/Scott Calvin's search to find a successor for when he eventually retires, with a few expected and unexpected complications thrown into the mix.
Causing unexpected bumps in the road for this display of North Pole Nepotism is Magnus Antas , a one-time Santa Claus now known as "Mad Santa," who has returned from his magical banishment and is looking to reclaim his throne in the North Pole... if only he can find some way to leave Santopolis, the year-round Christmas village he is trapped in, run by the ever-cheery Kris Moreno . All this to say there is a lot going on in The Santa Clauses Season 2.
Scott's insistence on training Cal as his successor is possibly the weakest part of the season overall. The trope of "parent wants child to run the family business, child wants to do something else" is right at home in the genre of Christmas media, but unfortunately, even the series doesn't seem to know where it stands on that.
Eric Stonestreet's Villain Fits Right Into 'The Santa Clauses' Season 2 On the other side of things is the looming threat of Magnus Antas. In the role of "Mad Santa," Eric Stonestreet absolutely shines. His over-the-top delivery is right at home in the realm of Christmas media where larger-than-life energy is at the top of the wishlist.
