In the Christmas special, Bojack's character admits that Santa is a lie in a way that is phrased like denying the existence of God.

It should be noted that it is not actually Santa who's a rapist/murderer, it is a man dressed up as Santa.

The villain spoils some magic for kids. They try to mitigate it by inserting something real, so you don't know if he's really spoiling or just "full-of-beans" but it skates the line pretty closely!
Titan: "You're so naive, Roxy. You see the good in everyone, even when it's not there. You're living a fantasy. There is no Easter Bunny. There is no Tooth Fairy. There is no Queen of England. This is the real world, and you need to wake up!"

Not really a show that kids young enough to believe in Santa should be watching, though.

Yes, but if a child is watching this show then Santa being spoiled is probably the least of your concerns.

Bob makes a sly comment to Tina about how they both know Santa's not real but Louise and Gene are still clueless but Tina doesn't pick up on it, hinting that she doesn't know he's not real which surprises Bob.

So actually yes. In one scene a father tells his daughter that santa is not real and its played incredible literally. However this is mitigated by the fact that santa is real within the context of the film and then has an incredible meta conversation about his existence directly afterword.

Not explicitly stated about Santa being real/not real, but there is a mall Santa who it is implied that he's not, and he has a scene where he's swearing a lot and so that all might not go over well with smaller children.

Being that Krampus is presented as a sort of dark counterpart to Santa Claus, that would imply that Santa himself is also real - though the matter isn't really delved into.
