A New Santa Claus

...Mr. Kotis, a better writer than actor, plays a drunken middle manager who discovers that St. Nick (Bill Coelius) fathered his children. After he confronts his wife, Mary (played by Ayun Halliday, Mr. Kotis’s real wife), she leaves home with her son and daughter, played by the Kotises’ adorable real children, the endearingly jaunty India, 11, and the shyer Milo, 8.

Leaving Dad at home, the rest of the family heads to the North Pole, where they find polygamous elves (Clay Adams, Jeff Gurner) and an angry Mrs. Claus (Lusia Strus) willing to destroy the world to get her revenge.
