Santa Inc.
Out with the old, in with the elf.
Created by Alexandra Rushfield
On HBO Max
A brash, irreverent adult animated comedy that subverts Christmas mythology through a female protagonist's ambition, balancing holiday nostalgia with satirical edge.
The story of Candy Smalls, the highest-ranking female elf in the North Pole. When the successor to Santa Claus is poached by Amazon on Christmas Eve, Candy goes for her ultimate dream— to become the first woman Santa Claus in the history of Christmas.
