Here's a cute little video, courtesy of Spolerbuzz (by way of YouTube) that places jolly old Santa into the world of 24. Entitled 24th it takes place between 11:58 PM and midnight. Santa has a dilemma: there's no chimney to climb down. So, who does he call? Well, his favorite C.T.U. (that would be Christmas Toy Unit) elf Chloe, who gives him the schematics of the house and a way to get in.
Along the way he encounters a nosy little girl and a plate of chocolate chip cookies. Sorry, no one gets kidnapped, maimed or killed, and the United States is not obliterated by nuclear, biological or chemical weapons. Heck, I'm sure Jack Bauer was probably sleeping when Santa went on his yearly Ops mission. It's just a sweet little piece of film that promotes the newest season of 24, which premieres in January.

SPOILER ALERT
Its cute but if Fox is going to do an "underground" viral marketing campaign to promote 24 using this Santa 24 spoof...at least get the CTU phone ring correct......

This was the best Santa movie I've ever seen -- So tension-filled, but with a comedic twist. Santa and Chloe - always a great team ;).

Okay here is one for Battlestar Galactica, I think it might even be the same guy that did the 24 one.

I think it's an officially movie, cos in the ending the fox-logo is incorporated.
The movie is also available on a belgian broadcaster website, the clearly must have had permission from Fox to use it and replace it with own dates and logo. I can't image they dare to alter en broadcast a webmade movie.
