The Night They Saved Christmas is a whimsical and enchanting family film that’s full of Christmas spirit. When Santa’s workshop is in danger of being destroyed by an oil company dynamiting in the Arctic, Santa tries to convince the site director to stop the drilling by giving his family a tour of his workshops at North Pole City. Jaclyn Smith and Art Carney lead the cast and deliver excellent performances. The story is well-written, with interesting characters and an intriguing Santa Claus mythology. Additionally, the set designs are quite elaborate and imaginative. Heartwarming and magical, The Night They Saved Christmas is a fun holiday adventure.

An under-rated made for TV Christmas Classic. Art Carney (The Honey Mooners) makes a great some-what grumpy Santa. Who can’t stand Jingle Bells.
