I loved Santa Baby! It's new for 2006 and stars Jenny McCarthy as Santa's uninterested-in-her-family-heritage, intense-corporate-executive daughter who comes home for the holidays after her dad gets sick. She tries to use her corporate expertise to get Santa's workshop running smoothly but has difficulty trying to tame elves who are more interested in having fun and taking cookie breaks than they are following her ideas. Along the way, she has love conflict between the old high school sweetheart still back at the North Pole and new corporate executive boyfriend from New York. She reconnects with her dad, who seemingly never appreciated her or her business acumen and is generally pretty nice to her overworked assistant, other than making her come to the North Pole with her, that is. But I think the assistant likes it there. Anyway, this movie had a good cast (George Wendt from Cheers plays Santa), a cute storyline, a little romance and of course, the hero-saves-the-day type of ending. Bravo!
*Remember, this is on a Christmas movie rating system.
