Jeremy Creek

Jeremy Creek is the title character of the poem of the same name written by Charmaine Severson, and as such, he is also the protagonist of the poem's animated adaptation, The Town Santa Forgot, produced in 1993 by Hanna-Barbera.

Why He Sucks In The Beginning Of The Film

 * 1) Jeremy is a spoiled brat who owns every toy imaginable but isn't satisfied with it, and he makes his parents buy more toys for him by throwing tantrums.
 * 2) He does not share any of his toys with anyone. Even Caillou wasn't this mean.
 * 3) He barely gets punished for his actions, only his parents telling him that they will not buy him anymore new toys.
 * 4) Jeremy then decides to simply ask Santa Claus for all the toys he wants, so he writes up a list half a mile long and sends it during June. Santa can't give a kid every single toy that he wants!
 * 5) His crying will get you on your last nerves.
 * 6) Not only his parents, but he also forces his grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins to buy him toys.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) He became good in the end and he learned why he didn't get any presents at the end of the special, and he delivered presents with Santa in the end of the film
 * 2) At the end of the special, it is revealed that Jeremy is the old man who has been telling the story to his grandchildren.
 * 3) At least his parents punished him.
