Trivia:

Santa Baby (2006) (TV) was a ratings hit for ABC FAMILY, pulling in over 4.7 million viewers during its initial airing, making it, at the time, the most watched original movie developed for the channel.

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the scene after Santa encourages Luke to go after Mary, She and her dad (Santa) is talking when Gary the elf shows up with a "productivity report" stating that productivity is up 1000000% and Mary says "You are making 1 million times more presents?" However +1000000% presents would make it only 10000 times more presents, not a million.

The new Jenny McCarthy

I no longer think of Playboy when I hear the name Jenny McCarthy. I now think of Autism, and good acting. She does a superb job in this charming and funny Christmas story.

Santa (George Wendt) is having heart trouble and so mom (Lynne Griffin) calls Mary Class (she changed her name) home. Mary (McCarthy) is a successful workaholic that has always had a rough time with dad (WHO HASN'T?). She wants efficiency, while he stick to tradition.

She also left a beau (Ivan Sergei) when she left home and has new boyfriend in the big city. You can imagine the problems there when the two meet.

So you have family struggle on a grand scale, relationship problems and lots of comedy in a great Christmas movie.

Also stars Kandyse McClure, who will be familiar to "Battlestar Galactica" fans, who creates a little heat of her own.
