History Main / MrsClaus

* ''SantaClausTheMovie'' started with Santa's origin, in which Mrs. Claus was already his wife before they were given their new roles.

* Imelda Staunton plays the role in ''ArthurChristmas'' as a hyper-competent organizer who handles the political end of the Santa Claus operation(she mentions a "treaty with Greenland").

* Mrs. Kringle from ''Jingle Belle'' is a notable exception from the GrannyClassic archetype (something which is occasionally lampshaded in the comic). She's a HotMom elf queen who prefers aristocratic garments to aprons.

** In another arc, Sally thinks that Mrs. Claus' name is [[AWorldwidePunomenon Mary Christmas]], and addresses her letters accordingly.

** The Head Head Vampire, to be exact. She tended to turn her husband into a vampire periodically. He was quite good-natured about it.
* She appears in ''RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer'' as a vaguely European dark-haired woman who urges Santa to eat, and who criticizes him for not appreciating the elves' singing.

* In one arc on ''{{Peanuts}}'', Sally thinks that SantaClaus is a Mrs. Claus, named Samantha Claus. Charlie Brown teases Sally at one point, asking, "Does Samantha Claus say 'Ho, ho, ho," or does she just smile daintily?"

* ''SantaClausTheMovie'' started with Santa's origin, in which Mrs. Claus was his wife before they were given their new roles.

* ''Santa Claus: The Movie'' started with Santa's origin, in which Mrs. Claus was his wife before they were given their new roles.

[[caption-width:203:Behind every man is a strong woman.]]

Her origins are as varied as those of her husband, but afterward she usually ends up as a GrannyClassic. Her outfit is consequently a red and white version of the dress that kind of character wears, or green to complement her husband's outfit and complete the Christmas theme. Rarely will she ever wear a HappyHolidaysDress, and especially not a SexySantaDress (unless she is crossed with GrandmaWhatMassiveHotnessYouHave). Still, ladies who are not actually Mrs. Claus will often wear those dresses when paired with a guy dressed as Santa, especially a MallSanta.

* In the [[AnAssKickingChristmas action cartoon]] ''Super Santa'' (from Nickelodeon's ''OhYeahCartoons'' series), the [[BadassSanta super-powered Santa]] was paired with Emma Claus, named after Emma Peel of ''TheAvengers'', who wore a SpyCatsuit under her more typical matronly robes.
