Yes, that's right. Will Ferrell played the role of Christmas Santa in the 2001 Saturday Night Live sketch "The Christmas Special." It was a parody of the classic holiday film "It's a Wonderful Life" and featured Ferrell as a stressed-out Christmas Santa who had lost his Christmas spirit and was trying to find it again. It was a popular sketch and is often remembered as one of Ferrell's most memorable SNL roles.
