It said 1994 on the back. I don't really care for most Muppet stuff after Jim died, but there are a few things that I like.

It'd probably be Muppet Classic Theater, then. Man, I forgot that was a thing.

Was it this? I know it's Piggy, not Fozzie, but still:

I saw some of that online a while back... It's not quite as bad as I thought it would be, it had some nice moments... but it was pretty much a kiddy thing... though, best part about those Muppet classics? All Muppet Productions! It really would have sucked if celebs played King Midas and the Newly Clotheless Emperor and had Fozzie and Piggy just in the background... like SOME movies that were better written, but lacking something.

I still say the Boom team got Muppet classic retellings RIGHT.

Emmet Otter was also only fifty cents, yes? I'd go with that. I know you say you aren't much for productions outside The Muppet Show, but that special has Jim's fingerprints all over it. Really magical.

Muppet Classic Theater had some good songs, I remember. But I think it was also the first time we saw Andy and Randy Pig. So, uh.
