This Christmas why not try a melodrama where Santa saves the day? The characters in this spoof are classics of the melodrama genre: Mother Kindlady, the sickly old lady who is wailing about the foreclosure; the lovely heroine, Mary; Will Strongheart, the handsome hero; and the twice despicable Whipley Skidmore. But Santa saves the day in a hilarious scene where he gives Mother Kindlady the mortgage money, and the villain winds up enveloped in Reynolds Wrap... "foiled" again!
