Television is...

Did anyone get CBC TV in the early 2000′s and remember this movie?

It’s been bothering me since that I don’t know the name and I can’t find it.

It was a Christmas movie about Santa and it was animated like Fred Wolf (e.g. Tootsie Pop ads, The Point) made it (he apparently didn’t according to IMDB) and it depicted Santa as a little round guy with spikey features. My gut instinct was to check the Film Board of Canada because it was that sort of weird and trippy, but no luck. r/tipofmytongue made some good guesses but none were the thing, so yes I did check there.

Any guesses?

Many characters from the Canadian co-production of Sesame Street called Sesame Park, like Basil, Louis, Chaos, Katie, and Dodi in her plane were on display at the CBC Museum in the "Growing Up With CBC" exhibit until December 22, 2017 when the museum eventually closed. The exhibit was open for fourteen years.

"When children would ask me if Casey was a boy or a girl," puppeteer Judith Lawrence says in the new documentary, Mr. Dressup: The Magic of Make-Believe, "I would say, 'Yes.'"

"Both Casey and Finnegan were created by Lawrence, an extraordinary puppeteer who the documentary makes clear deserves nearly as much credit for the legacy of Mr. Dressup as Mr. Dressup himself, Ernie Coombs. It also shows that Lawrence believed wholeheartedly in the power of dress-up and make-believe in moving beyond a binary world."

Mr. Dressup aired from roughly the 1970s thru to the '90's on the CBC tv network in Canada. Back in the days when some channels were publically funded and available on traditional airwaves for free.

Mr. Dressup was actor Ernie Coombs and he apprenticed under Mr. Rogers before coming over here to Canada to make Mr. Dressup. It was essentially a Canadian version of the Mr Rogers' Neighborhood show in it's goals, but with a premise based on dressing up and colourful make-believe characters, which were used to approach to daily life in a way kids could learn from.

I was quite young but did grew up on the late 90's re-runs of the show. I remember how quaint it was...
