*looks at ToughPigs* I think if I had been invited on the set, I would've cried and started shaking. Seriously, what an honor! And the pictures look good :smile: Would've been better if there was SNOW for the special, but...

ToughPigs.com referred to "letters to Santa" as a production title. I can't help but think of other titles that might work, considering what little plot information we know.
How about "A Muppet Christmas Mishap"?
or, "A Muppet Christmas Mishop"? .... ok, maybe not.

If you could rename this special, what would you think of?
Got another one!...
"The Pursuit of a Claus: A Muppet Holiday Special"
Now there's a title that deserves 2 sequels.

This is great! I'm so excited for this, can't wait to see what it will be like. And Paul Williams doing the music... yay! I am always looking forward to Christmas time, and here's just another reason to! :smile:

I have a confession to make ....
Well, see ... the thing is ..... (Golly, how do I say this?)
...I've never seen Muppet Christmas Carol.

:embarrassed: I'm so ashamed.
Don't worry. I've never seen MWoO or AVVMCM either.

I have a feeling they are saving the snow for a specific scene. After all, it does say that the Muppets are escaping snow and NYC.

I can imagine so! Or maybe somewhere in the middle. As long as the snow isn't falling on a frozen despressed Frog, but rather on a happy perfect musical scene I'll be SO happy.

But I don't like seeing our Muppets fall on hard times. It depresses me.
