I made up an idea for an Ultimate Muppets Box Set a while back there. I've been tinkering with it since that. Now, assuming MT would fit on 2 double-layer discs, it would fit on 1 double-sided-double-layered disc. Here's a revised edition of that set:

The Muppet Treasure Chest: HIT edition

Disc 1: The Animal Show
A 13-ep "best of" on 1 2-sided 2-layered disc. Extras: Commentaries on most eps with Brian Henson, Dave Goelz, Karen Prell and Steve Whitmire; a Frank Oz commentary on the "Bald Eagle" episode in which he guest-starred as Sam; a short documentary on the show.

Disc 2: The Ghost of Faffner Hall Entire series (13 eps, I think) on 1 2-sided 2-layered disc. Extras: Commentaries on all eps by Louise Gold, Karen Prell and Mike Quinn; a short doc on the series; a profile of the Wild Impresario.

Disc 3: The Secret Life of Toys 13 eps (possibly the entire series?) on same disc as the other 2. Extras: Commentaries by Louise Gold, Jerry Nelson and Dave Goelz on all eps; short doc on the show.

Disc 4: The Specials
"The Christmas Toy", "Tale of the Bunny Picnic", "Hey Cinderella!", "The Frog Prince" on same disc as before. Extras: Commentary on "Toy" by Goelz, Whitmire, Henson and Kathy Mullen; "Picnic" by Whitmire, Clash and Prell; "Prince" by Jerry Juhl; short docs on each

Disney doesn't have a whole lot to release, so I'll leave that for another day.

"Tale of the Bunny Picnic", "Hey Cinderella!", and "The Frog Prince" are owned by Disney, HIT can not release them :wink:
