Because he's just Santa Claus right from the start! He makes an incredible transformation in the beginning of the movie, and then throughout the movie his son keeps him believing that he's truly The Santa Claus!! Great Movie 🎥

Ken Weis

Is because he is the best one to do it because he is funny, and he is serious when it comes down to do Santa Claus.

Sherri Sneed

Tim’s Santa feels like a real person as opposed to a mythical one.

Sofia Duncan

cause he good I like him playing Santa

MonoTheBoyo (RoboDestroyer69)

This is the one I actually watched when I was younger and I love the twist at the beginning of the movie

Rita Hewett

I've seen all Tim's The Santa Clause movies AND all the episodes of his new Santa Clauses. Looking forward to seeing his latest. He's truly a funny guy.

I am familiar with Tim Allen as I grew up watching Home Improvement & Last Man Standing. Maybe if I had watched Edmund's performance I would pick him but I have a feeling that it still would not change my vote and love for the one and only Tim Allen 👍🎄

Seamus Noah Matthewson (GingerCubbieBear)

Do to the comic version though tim Allen is very good at being a Santa though the other actor won a Oscar he help pavement the way to other great actors and the remake of miracle of 34th Street and now it's all good

It made you believe in Christmas!

Hijag Wilson

This Christmas movie is the best ever made. I enjoyed watching year after year while growing up. Also, still enjoy it watching today as if it was my first time. It’s an excellent excellent movie. It’s what Christmas is all about. 🥰

He looks like Santa Clause

Chris W. McClendon

I guess I'm just a traditionalist. And Edmund Gwenn represents Christmas to me. A close second would be Kurt Russell!!!

Saprina Bowman

He was the epitome of a real Santa Claus that made you question if he really could be real, even as an adult.

Gina Mendez

Because Classic! So meaningful, and the feeling of Christmas

Donna Thomas

More serious and old school.

Lori Hoppe

The original Santa is always the best. And, who can resist a British accent? Huh?

Carol Ferguson-Green

The best!

Beverly Threadgill

Because he's more believable. He's so sure of himself that he'll convince the audience that he is indeed, St. Nicholas. And Miracle on 34th is my all time favorite Christmas Movie...

Annette Holloway

I love miracle on 34th street My favorite movie of all times

Kelly Schulz

I like the older version better feels more real🎅🏼

Noreen

He is the real Santa... I believe

Mattie J Bess

This was the original Christmas Santa Movie that made you believe that there really was a Santa Claus. Entertaining for you and your children.

A positive reflection of blacks not living in poverty.

J RICHIE

Funny, funny, funny, even within the serious episodes a unique funny was created.

Rena Lashley (Doobienay)

The were all great shows of course, it's Norman Lear's babies

Gloria Newton

I like them both but only could vote for 1

Michelle Acosta-Delgado

Duh, it was hilarious.

Latasha Perry

Because George Jefferson was sooo funny

Michelle Masters

My mom didn't like the character of Archie Bunker & the way he spoke to his wife. Plus she hated hearing Edith's whiney voice when she'd say "Charrrllliie" & that she was cast as an oblivious air-head. She wasn't much of a Jefferson's fan either since we lived in a rural area & they were city aprtmt

Tammie Andersen

I just like it better.

Phyllis Guenther Rock

So funny!

Ellen Jackson

George was never verbally abusive and disrespectful to Weezy. While Archie was those things as well as ignorant. As a child watching the show it always made me sad. Cause I would think about all the women being treated like that in real life.

Douglas Jones

It was a matter of pride to see my people on TV back then.

Kathy Katsarelis

I loved the characters. Who didn't love Weezy?

Elizabeth Kiss-Bahrey

I loved both shows , all the sitcoms from Norm Lear in the 70’s were the best , that’s when TV was so funny we had real clean comedy ,I would laugh hysterically every night . I don’t even watch tv except for the news because it’s all boring , nothing is funny . Bring all these shows back please

Venn Millieux

Growing up, my family and I watched this show together every week and the series left me with great familial memories.

Jay Jones II

I used to love to watch this show because it funny. 🤣

Sherrie Roundtree Santos

It showed me what I lived in poverty. However, it showed me what I could become as a mixed raced child, raised by my white grandmother...god bless her soul.

Janice Heyward

I love The Jeffersons! George was funny and he didn't take any crap from anyone. At that time he put a lot of prejudice white people in there place. The woman who played his mother was funny. His house keeper Florence was just as hilarious as George. The theme song Moving On Up was the best ever!

Nafesa E.

A show about black people being successful was enough for me. I loved watching this show as a child!

Keasha Griffiths

The Jeffersons was the best, you finally saw a black man who owned his own business fare n square.

Angela Shelby

I loved the show and use to watch it all the time as a kid. It was funny, just hilarious 😂

jennifer cipalone

One of the greatest funniest shows!! There was no better comedy than those that He created may he rest in peace

Michelle LaRae

I can recall growing up watching this show. A lot of laughter went on while watching it. Then when the Jeffersons came out we watched that too. Again, with a lot of laughter! And before everyone goes freaking out about All In The Family for having a racist character in it, so did The Jeffersons!

Kathryn Teleri Schakel

None of the other shows would have existed had their characters not been developed in this show. Plus Carol O'Connor, a lifelong liberal, did a masterful job portraying his bigoted big mouth character. And Edith! Jean Stapleton was a genius & she perfectly offset Archie. I still ❤️ this show!

Jill Strother

Archie Bunker and the way he spoke to Meathead his son in law.

Elizabeth DeCarolis

such a funny show and it didn't hurt anyone

Donna Gray

A brand new one of a kind NEW type of TV series that was highly successful 👍🏻✅❤️

April Seitz-Brown

LEGENDARY AND COMFORTING!

Karen Meer

It was the original! Jefferson spun off of "all in the family". I love both shows but all in the family touched on so many serious issues of the day. Really the first of its kind. Edith with the menopause, Gloria and Feminism. Mike with Social justice and "loveable" bigot Archie!.

Tanya Keller

I watched it more & with my family & we still quote the show sometimes.

Rachel Huffine

I was a kid when it was on, but my parents - who were socially progressive for the times - watched it, and thus so did I. It was an education for me on the ways of society that I had yet to experience/observe for myself, I also enjoyed getting the same from his other shows as well!
