right now on NBC.....:D
 
DS and I are watching right now.

He could not wait for the movie with:

"Kermit the Frog, and his girlfriend Mrs. Pig" lol it was very cute.

I'm taping it even as we speak! I just love the Muppets! :)
 
It's great so far.....in HD, too....:D
 

It was really cute! DS wanted nothing to do with it but ended up liking it (I think.) :teeth: He mentioned some line about Sponge Bob. I was dozing at that point. LOL!
 
But was it worth it???

I taped it and plan to watch it later. I'm just feeling a little bit skeptical because I read (TV Guide ???) the Whoopie Goldberg (sp?) played god? (Gimmeabreak!)

It also sounds like this was their version of "It's a Wonderful Life" which does have me optimistic to some point because this is where I think the Muppets really do their best, at "re-telling" classics.

I can't wait till they decide to do the "Sound of Muppets" !!!
 
It was extremely good. I really liked it.

Did anyone see Kermit interview on the Today show Friday morning. It was a great interview (using a very special couch that had Kermit seeming to set with no pupeteer visible.
 
It was great! The story centered around the Muppet Show Theater, which made it even better for me. Joan Cusack made a great villain.....:D

The thing that kinda confused me was it being on NBC. Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought Disney owned the Muppets. If they do, why was it on NBC? I was just wondering.
 
I do not think that Disney owns the Muppets. There was a deal for Disney to buy Henson's company but the sale of Henson's company fell through when Jim Henson died. A foriegn company later bought Henson and has since put Henson on the auction block. There was speculation that Disney may bid for Henson but I have not heard anything.

Kermit in his "interview" on the Today show indicated that NBC would be carrying other made for TV movies for the Muppets..
 
My daughter and I can't believe we missed it. Does anyone know if it will be on again this year?
 
I think it's supposed to be repeated on the Hallmark channel, but check your tv guide. :) I enjoyed it a lot, but the Muppets still haven't been the same since Jim Henson and Richard Hunt died.
