Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Santa's Little Helper earns its spot. Santa's Little Helper gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. After getting fired from his job, a slick, fast-talking businessman is thrown into an elf competition to become Santa¹s next second-in-command. Put through a series of rigorous training exercises to prepare for the contest, The Miz and another aspiring elf go head-to-head in the hopes of becoming Santa¹s Little Helper. The chemistry Mike Mizanin and Saraya Bevis bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. It was released in 2015. Santa's Little Helper earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Santa's Little Helper is a strong candidate. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Mike Mizanin is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.
