We need a source for Jerry Nelson playing Santa in Hey Cinderella! — Scott (talk) 18:00, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, Scooter added that. I asked him on his talk page, and he never responded. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 18:02, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Re-Format

I just reformatted the page, after realizing there were absolutely no pictures of the actual depictions of actors as Santa Claus, and no room for any. A few of the gaps, like from It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, I can fill in myself, but if anyone has access to images of Santa from Elmo Saves Christmas, Elmo's World: Happy Holidays, or the Whatnot and Anything Muppet versions not shown here, feel free to add them. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 01:58, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Deleted Santa

In It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, is that Kirk Thatcher as Santa in the deleted scene? He sounds vaguely as if he were looped by Jerry Nelson, but looks like Thatcher to me. Andrew Leal (talk) 06:03, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

The Many Faces of Santa

Boy, this article has grown in such a very short time! It also place this in both Human Characters and Muppet Characters, as he's been incarnated as both. Unless anyone thinks each Santa, outside of those played by established characters in pageants/Christmas episodes, needs a page? (Oh, and I just remembered another in the latter category- Santa Hogg!) --Andrew, Aleal 15:48, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

No, I think it's great the way it is! -- Danny Toughpigs 17:27, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Isn't that Jerry Nelson as Santa Claus in Elmo's World: Happy Holidays? Theatrefreak25 03:16, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't think the santa in Elmo's World: Happy Holidays is played by Jerry Nelson. --Minor muppetz 23:07, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Oh ok, it sounded like him to me, and that would explain why no on-screen credit was given. If it was a non-Muppeteer, I would think they would have to be credited, it wasn;t a small role. Theatrefreak25 06:05, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Maybe he was the real Santa Claus! -- Danny Toughpigs 13:43, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, as part of his contract, he insists on no billing for these sorts of public appearances, and residuals all go to charity. It was the only way he could stop the investigative probes into his sweatshop procedures, to say nothing of his off-shore operations and subsidiary front companies, such as the one run by "Sinterklaas." --Andrew, Aleal 13:52, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
