- TriviaThis film marks the second of three times where Leslie Nielsen played Santa Claus. The other two were in the film "All I Want for Christmas" (1991) and an episode of the animated TV series "Chilly Beach" (2003).
- GoofsWhen the police call the news reporter to tell them about the people who have been missing their grandfather for ten years, in the reporters close up when he starts to wonder if he is with the real Santa Claus, a Canada Post truck can be seen in the background, which should not be there, since the movie's set in the United States. However, this does make sense at the same time, because the movie was filmed in Toronto, Canada.

Featured review
I recently watched Santa Who? (2000) on Tubi with my daughter. The plot follows Santa, who falls out of his sleigh and develops amnesia just before the holidays. Convinced he's the real Santa Claus, some kids try to help him regain his memory.
Directed by William Dear (Harry and the Henderson) and starring Leslie Nielsen (The Naked Gun), Steven Eckholdt (The Wraith), Robyn Lively (Karate Kid III), Tommy Davidson (In Living Color), and Max Morrow (The Russell Girl).
The movie is overall is straightforward and predictable. However, watching Leslie Nielsen is always enjoyable, and Davidson delivers a tremendous supporting performance. The film includes a few entertaining comedic sequences and one-liners, with the security guard scene being particularly hilarious.
In conclusion, Santa Who? Is a fun comedic addition to the Christmas genre that I highly recommend. I'd give it a score of 6/10.
