On this day in 2000, the made-for-TV movie ‘Santa Who?’ debuted on ABC’s ‘The Wonderful World of Disney.’ Leslie Nielsen stars as Santa, who develops amnesia after falling out of his sleigh over Los Angeles right before Christmas. Peter, a cynical news reporter, finds Santa and attempts to use his story for ratings. The innocence of a child is the key to helping Santa get back to himself. The ordeal also prompts Peter to work through the trauma of Christmases past. [25 years ago in 2025]
