The 20th Century Fox Hour is an hour-long drama anthology series that was broadcast in the United States on CBS from 1955 to 1957.
Original Air Date—14 December 1955
Miracle on 34th Street
A 1955 one-hour television adaptation of the movie
starred Thomas Mitchell as Kris, Macdonald Carey as Fred, Teresa Wright as Doris, and Sandy Descher as Susan. This version did not show the drunken Santa at all. Titled The Miracle on 34th Street, it originally
aired as an episode of The 20th Century Fox Hour. It was later re-run as Meet Mr. Kringle.
One Kris Kringle, a department-store Santa Claus, causes quite a commotion by suggesting customers go to a rival store for their purchases. But this is nothing to the stir he causes by announcing that he is not merely a make-believe St. Nick, but the real McCoy.
