Has anyone seen or heard of the special "I Love the Muppets"? I seem to recall some mention of it a while back, if I'm thinking of the right program- an edition of a UK series.

I was a bit surprised to see who were the celebs who took part in it- James Coburn, Leo Sayer, Debbie Harry.

What's the special like? A lot of clips, or more interviews? Does it cover only TMS or other Henson things too? And most importantly, anyone know how I can get a copy of it or trade for one?

It's cool - lots of clips, and soundbytes from the Muppeteers and other celebs who did and didn't appear on the show. It also featured Michael Dixon and a clip of when he met Jim and Kermit when he was a young'un.

Lots of us have copies but the UK is PAL - not sure if there are some converted NTSC copies around but i would guess so.

I've traded with Europeans before. There's a place not far from here where I send PAL tapes to be converted to NTSC, cheaper than anywhere else I've found.
