Countdown to Christmas: Father Christmas (Archie Bunker's Place, 1982)

 From season 4 of Archie Bunker's Place:

Archie's brother, Fred (Richard McKenzie), is coming for a visit. You see, he had essentially abandoned his daughter, Billie (Denise Miller, ex-Fish), who ultimately moved in with Archie (Carroll O'Connor) and his adopted daughter, Stephanie (Danielle Brisebois). Archie is trying to keep it a secret from Billie, to surprise her for Christmas. Good luck with that.

Meanwhile, Barney Helfer (Allan Melvin) dresses up at Santa at the bar.
