Will be great for a nostalgic look back. Hope they include the Rocky Balboa episode.

My kids love the old Muppet movies. Can You Picture That is officially my daughter's favorite song.

As a kid, I geeked out when Luke, Threepio and Artoo appeared on the show.

I haven't seen Veterinary Hospital or Pigs.....in.....SPAAAAAACE! in so long. Really looking forward to that.

For anyone that find themselves in Atlanta, I can't recommend the Center for Puppetry Arts enough... The main draw is the Jim Henson section and I could have spent an entire day there.

This is my dad's all-time favorite

I'd never seen that. Jim Henson is an American icon.

Loved the Muppet show, loved the recent office style one. There is something on Disney+ right now but it just hasn't been as good. Lot of one shots, I think they're just experimenting to see what sticks.

Disney hasn't had much respect for the Muppets. Them using a free version of the editing software for the Disney+ show, including the watermark on the screen, was a low point.

You're going to have to dumb that one down for me, I don't get the connection.

"No..no..no. That's a myth."

"A what?"

"A myth. Myth."

This announcement absolutely made my day yesterday! I bought seasons 1, 2, and 3 on DVD when my son was a baby - 16 years ago! They never released any complete seasons beyond #3. There were some special 3 episode DVD releases that had episodes from later seasons (like the Star Wars episode), but never all of them.

Season 1 does have some weird episodes. It took a few before they hit their stride.

I believe there are/were a few copyright issues with some of the episodes.

It's on my bucket list. There is also a museum in Queens, NY called the Museum of the Moving image that has quite a few Muppet/Jim Henson artifacts. They were just months away from opening the Jim Henson display when we went to NYC. I put that trip off for a long time hoping the exhibit would open but finally gave up.

Thanks for sharing that! EOJBC was my absolute favorite Christmas show as a kid. I had it on DVD, but loaned it to a friend and never got it back.

I remember when JH died. I was 12 and absolutely heartbroken. I thought The Muppets would never be the same (and they aren't, but I still enjoy them).

Jim Henson's funeral and the special Muppet Show tribute to Jim Henson are both on YouTube and are both incredibly touching, sad, funny and impactful.
