Ho, ho, hold up! It's time for another Christmas already?! Just as we were boxing up our decorations, good tidings come around once again for you and your kin. So, before we wish you a Happy New Year, it's a Merry Christmas on Disney + with festive, streaming feeling. Not only are we fast and furiously 'Dashing Through The Snow' on a one horse open Ludacrismas with Lil Rel Howery for a film that's all about family, like Vin Diesel. But we now have the 'Home Improvement' family affair of another season of 'The Santa Clauses' featuring Tim Allen and his own daughter Elizabeth Allen-Dick, bringing on her own witching hour. Jack Burditt's second season stars the Ms. Claus of Elizabeth Mitchell, showing the great chronicles of Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn that she's the original, a next in like to the Ansel Elgort throne, Austin Kane, and the new North Pole power couple of Matilda Lawler and Devin Bright. Tap in and nose your way through another half dozen episodes under your tree, as Allen looks to retire his red coat once again and hand it to the young buzz that is his son. But, will this show that now extends its Christmas run to two movies and series end up on your naughty, or nice list as it checks in twice? Coal or carrot, either way, Santa Claus is coming back to town like a Springsteen song.
Rocking around the Christmas tree, if 'tis is not the season for your Christmas spirit, it's been a rough year, than stand-up comedian and 'Magic Mike' star on the tree Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias will be your spoonful of sugar rush medicine like the milk and cookies you still leave out each and every year. Holiday cheers to the Speedy Gonzales of LeBron James' 'Space Jam 2: A New Legacy'. Not afraid to Bugs and Mickey, change lanes from Warner Bros to Disney, like DC and Marvel. He plays a kindly Christmas shop and lot owner with a charming little pop-up that might be a far sleigh ride from the grandest of grottos, but still something to visit. That is, until he's joined by one Santa whose knee you will be too scared to sit on. Stealing the snow, an almost unrecognizable Eric Stonestreet is undeniable as Magnus Antas. A Bizarro Santa. Not to mention, a Nutcracker throwback ready to break your balls as a truly mad Santa. The bawdy and bold St. Nick from the unanimous 'Modern Family' MVP is the best thing about season two and even has us wish listing a spin-off, before we get a third helping of all this Clause and effect. He has the best lines and biggest belly laughs and is a hero to us fellow rosy cheeked year-round face aches (no, I've not been skiing. Piste off). Sitting on his throne like Thanos, this former nutcracker is having a ball, discovering cellphones, delivery services and movie rentals that could put his own streaming service out of business.
Pole to pole, we've got an Easter Egg hunt of cameos and callbacks that make this cast of characters legendary. Some may say Bah Humbug to this like a Grinch, but with Christmas in the heart like Norah covering Dylan, this is a time to be happy and with family. And this show is exactly that. For those throwing rotten tomatoes at the sleigh, remember like the Roadrunner of Iglesias' 'Jam' with James, that most media and trolls love to hate, this is a darn kids movie. It's not really for you, unless it's fun for the whole family. Stop raising those high 'brows and unfold your arms, this does no harm. Even if Santa needs to be a little nicer this year. All coal, and ho, ho, oh no. So don't regret this like a Scrooge being visited by the ghosts of past, bound to give you the Dickens like a Christmas carol. Because, after all, did you forget what day it is? This Tiny Tim says God bless you as 'The Santa Clauses' hobble towards another dance around the North Pole. I dream of Christmas, and it seems to be every day in the household of the other Tim. But with a few home improvements, Allen has the key to unlock and unwrap more gifts for calendars to come. A streaming stocking-filler for you to peel away at like an orange in the bottom of the sack. Mistletoe and wine, this Disney + original will leave you dashing through the show. TIM DAVID HARVEY.
Further Filming: 'The Santa Clause', 'Dashing Through The Snow', 'Home Improvement'.
