Peter and Bobby Farrelly talk about their first film team-up in a decade with the Paramount+ Jack Black Christmas comedy-drama, reflect on 'Dumb and Dumber' and 'There's Something About Mary.'

To his point, Dumb and Dumber remains one of the most memorable comedies of the 1990s, as well as a career highlight for Jim Carrey, though neither the brothers’ sequel Dumb and Dumber To nor the Farrelly-free prequel Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd came anywhere close to matching the original film’s dimwitted whimsy.

The Farrelly brothers wanted 'Dear Santa' (which follows Jack Black's Satan pretending to be Santa) to have "heart and an uplifting message."

Dear Santa (now streaming on Paramount+) marks the creative reunion of the Farrelly Brothers, after a decade apart (their last movie together was 2014’s Dumb and Dumber To), with Peter Farrelly directing and Bobby Farrelly writing (with Ricky Blitt and Dan Ewen).

Twenty years after the release of Dumb and Dumber, the Farrelly brothers reunited with Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels for Dumb and Dumber To. Although the sequel received negative reviews, it did gross $169.
