        North Pole's Got Talent!
        It’s just days before Christmas at Santa’s Workshop, and there’s still lots of work to be done — like getting the elves and reindeer in the proper holiday spirit with song, dance, and big belly laughs!  Elf hosts Holly Daze and Mistletoe Merryman welcome judges Mrs. Claus, the pun-loving Ruby the Red-Lipped Reindeer, and Old St. Nick himself to judge the talent show in this reality TV spoof.  Contestants Jack Frost and Snow Queen get a chilly reception at first, but even they can’t take the warmth and good spirit out of this friendly competition!
