What great timing! I have my own little Thanksgiving tradition of watching Muppet Family Christmas.

Anyway, one of my favorite quotes belongs to Sam the Eagle: "Why am I here?"

I'm really interested in specific quotes that people remember when they think of the special...

some of my favorites. geez. let me think.

DOC:I don't care if the turkey says the dog's a turkey. The dog's not the turkey. The turkey's the turkey you turkey.

OSCAR:Gee I never roomed with a rat before. That might be kinda nice.

GROVER:Hello I am a mouse and I am not stirring. Notice how the hand does not touch the spoon.

MA BEAR:Well I'm off to Florida!

"Watch out for the icy patch!"

DOC:I guess even weirdos are cute when they're little.
GONZO:Thanks!

PHOTOGRAPHER:Ok. Now the pouty thing. The pouty thing. Yes perfect. (just Hunt's delivery is great)

and perhaps my favorite

JANICE:Hey everyone. Who wants Christmas cookies?
COOKIE MONSTER:COOKIES!!
(Cookie eats them)
JANICE:Who was that strange blue creature?
ANIMAL:Him my kinda fella.

There's tons more I can't even think of right now. Any of the scenes with Gonzo,The Turkey and Camilla are hilarious. Same thing with Fozzie and the Snowman. I love this special.

i was just watching the deleted scenes on The Muppet Christmas website and found these classics:

ROWLF:Oh boy. This piano's out of tune. I love out of tune pianos.

FLOYD:Look it's Miss Hamhock when she was just a little sausage roll.

BUNSEN:There's Rowlf when he was just a little wee pup.
ROWLF:What do you mean wee. I was paper trained.

GONZO:What a handsome little devil I was.

My sister and I love that quote. We use it whenever we can...

 

[The Count]

Though it's not really a quote, one of my favorite parts is the following:
Kermit breaks up a fight between Gonzo and the Christmas Turkey when the frog hears the sound of carollers coming. All of a sudden you see and hear the Sesame Street cast marching down the sloping hills singing their harts out, before reaching the large bay window and then entering Ma Bear's house.

Another quote I fondly remember is Robin: "Here, Grover, I want to give you this Fraggle pebble."
Grover: "Thank you Robin, I'll always love this cute little Fraggle pebble."
That's all for now, and happy holidays to all!
