Santa Inc. is a 2021 satirical adult animation comedy series created by Alexandra Rushfield and animated by Stoopid Buddy Studios. Like Stoopid's previous works, this series is animated in Stop Motion, likely as a homage to the classic Christmas specials of Rankin/Bass Productions.Candy Smalls (Sarah Silverman), a female elf working for Santa Claus (Seth Rogen) at the North Pole, dreams of becoming the first female Santa. Assisting her is Cookie (Leslie Grossman), a loudmouthed gingerbread woman, and Goldie (Gabourey Sidibe), a bisexual deer who is a member of the B-Team of Santa's reindeer. Part of the cast is Junior (Craig Robinson), the leader of the A-Team who belittles the other reindeer, and Devin (Nicholas Braun), Santa's intern who wants to get a job at the company someday, and Brent (Jim Meadows), Candy's old mentor who was poached by Amazon.The show premiered on the 2nd of December 2021 on HBO Max. It was removed from there in 2022 just like many other series, but it was later added to Tubi in 2023. | |

Honor Before Reason: Despite Santa offering her a legitimately acceptable compromise that would allow her to be the brains of Santa Inc, allowing her full control to build the company in her image, Candy rejects it completely since she wanted to be his proper successor and out in front for people to see rather than from behind the scenes. | |

Ambiguously Evil | |
| Santa Inc. / int_853b7948 | comment |
Ambiguously Evil: Santa himself. While he is consistently portrayed as very flawed and clout seeking, the series as a whole can't seem to make its mind on whereas he's genuinely contemptible. For one thing his reason for not picking Candy is portrayed as sound, but in the finale it's revealed he takes bribes. Candy clearly sees him as a Broken Pedestal at best, but its implied she doesn't completely hate him by the end despite everything. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Candy was so obsessed with being Santa, solely to be the first woman, that she didn't actually think about everything Santa stands for. IE, being a Friend to All Children. When Santa sees how she acts around children when she is made acting Santa, he sits her down and explains why he can't give her the job. | |

Never My Fault: Candy is aggressively convinced she deserves to inherit the role of Santa, and is incredibly dismissive of the reasoning against it (namely she's a Jerkass around children). She halfheartedly offers to learn not to hate kids, but that's as far as it goes. | |

The End... Or Is It?: The final episode has Junior seemingly run over and killed by Candy. At the very end, after the plot has been wrapped up, a shot of his prone body is seen, with his nose beginning to glow again...implying that Junior survive and most likely he'll come back and Candy will face the consequences of her actions. | |

Dramatically Missing the Point | |
| Santa Inc. / int_9e9203e1 | comment |
Dramatically Missing the Point: Candy is obsessed with becoming the first female, and elf, to be Santa. While she has the smarts and the skills to do the job, her lack of being civil with others and social interactions hurt her where it's needed most. Namely, she's terrible with children, wanting nothing to do with them and scaring them off. This is the main reason why Santa decided not to choose her despite filling all other criteria, as being Santa means being a Friend to All Children, something Candy has no actual interest in becoming and treats it more like developing a skill than just being nice to them. And yet, she refuses his compromise and sees the role being taken from her as unfair. | |
