Simply wretched. The one from the 90s has its detractors, but I think it's cute.

Is that the one with David Hartmann and Jane Alexander -- and Sebastion Cabot as Santa?

Jane Alexander and David Hartman probably the most unsexy couple ever.

OUCH!!!

There was a trend in the 70's to remake classic films for TV.

Anyone ever see Double Indemity?

...

Personally, I like the 90's remake.

I rewatched the 1995 version and it's still really charming. I also watched a 1955 television called The Miracle on 34th St. It wasn't half bad and it was only about 45 minutes long.

Just call me the Devil: I hate this f**kin' story in ANY of its versions!
