About Bad Santas

Bad Santas ended 2012-12-18 on Channel 4. The show aired its two-episode first season over two days in December 2012.

Bad Santas was a reality series that aired in 2012. It followed the Ministry of Fun managing directors James and Matt as they selected and trained potential Santa performers from a diverse pool of candidates, including men who were homeless, unemployed, or had legal issues. The contestants underwent various challenges designed to test their ability to embody the jolly spirit of Santa Claus, such as mastering the art of the 'ho ho ho', learning popular Christmas toys, and handling children's tricky questions.

The episodes each ran for 60 minutes, providing a glimpse into the humorous and sometimes challenging process of becoming Santa for the holiday season.
