#13a: NIGHT OF THE MEEK written by Rockne S. O'Bannon; Directed by Martha Coolidge
This was a direct remake of the same-titled episode from the old TZ show

As in the original version, a drunken dept. store Santa (Richard Mulligan; played by Art Carney in the original) finds a magic bag that dispenses endless gifts. A silly wish-fulfillment fantasy, but required, I guess, for the X-Mas season (this aired in late December of 1985). BoG's Score: 4 /10
William Atherton plays the asswipe manager - this may have gotten him the role in the Die Hard movies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTEiLJUcckU
