Note about the French DVD release of 'Muppet Family Christmas'

[SeanC]

I ordered this from France last week, hoping it would be an uncut version of the special ( I'd heard that European releases were unedited ). Sadly, it's the same edited version that's available in North America.

Still, it's better than nothing and disc two features 'Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas' ( Kermit's opening scene is intact, but I haven't watched the full thing yet ).
The sad thing is, I remember seeing the uncut UK/Ireland release of 'Muppet Family Christmas' in stores several years back but I never bought it as my Muppet fascination didn't kick in until sometime after that.
