“For my magic act, I will...

Big Bird roller-skated on-stage with the Bird-kateers.
“Not bad, Bird-kateers, not bad at all”, said Big Bird.
“I’m still trying to get my pigeons to learn that”, said Bert, observing from...
No, The Walt Disney Company owns that special, and Lionsgate has the current video rights to stuff from The Jim Henson Company. And while Lionsgate does take down YouTube videos of material it holds video rights to, a film company would need to clear rights before using clips. Not sure if they'd...

It was almost time for the telethon to begin.
“Okay, everybody get ready”, said Prairie Dawn in the control room.

They've said they'll release as much as they can but can't release everything because Caroll has actually shot thousands of hours of home movie footage.
My three favorites are the first, third, and fifth.
I like the raw feel of the first season. In fact this is something I like about many first seasons. I guess I can see why others dislike it, probably for reasons I like. But it's so much fun, seeing less-than-perfect versions of characters...
I've checked the Kickstarter page, and saw that they need nearly $12,000 more before reaching their goal!
Just thought about something: It's been said that one of the incentives for pledging money is a copy of the film's soundtrack. Will this be all original music composed for the film, or...

Can't wait to hear what you and your nephew watch tomorrow. Good to know he liked the Ed Sullivan stuff. Personally, I find The Great Muppet Caper to be more exciting than The Muppet Movie (I felt this way even as a kid).
If he's a big Animal fan, I'd recommend Rock Music with the Muppets (if you have that one), since it has a lot of Electric Mayhem numbers (including some solo Animal numbers). I would also recommend showign him the episodes with Rita Moreno (the "Fever" number is one of Animal's best scenes)...
What I would suggest:
The Muppet Movie (you can have him watch The Great Muppet Caper on the next visit, then The Muppets Take Manhattan the visit after that...)
3-4 Muppet Show episodes (I would suggest the ones with Candice Bergen, Madeline Kahn, Bernadette Peters, and Roger Miller)
