* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: Douglas Seale as Santa Claus seems to have no clue he's in a goofy comedy and plays the role without the slightest hint of sincerity, giving Santa real warmth and paternal kindness. Many have gone as far as to cite his performance as one of the best versions of Santa ever to appear in a film and even the film's detractors have nothing but praise for his portrayal of Saint Nick.

I wouldn't have thought anyone would be fooled by Pamela Trenton/"Harmony Star", but here we are.

--> '''Santa Claus''': You know, I've carried this torch for more seasons than... I should have done. 'Cause I ''loved'' it so much! But now... I've taken to making notes! Well, you can't do it that way! It shouldn't be done that way! It ''can't'' be done that way...

* {{Tearjerker}}: This version of Santa is a LegacyCharacter, and the current one has come to the harsh realization that his love for the job blinded him to when he should have given it up, so that now he can’t keep his whole list to memory anymore and may have doomed the holiday forever if he can’t find a replacement very soon. It’s literally a case of a person being too good, and Douglas Seale’s performance is heartwrenching.
