rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author coballes - For some reason...this Jim Henson production has just stayed with me for all these years! I love this movie and it's a shame that it didn't get the air play it deserves. One of my very best friends happens to be one of the only people I know that...

Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas: A Backwoods (but not Backwards) Muppet Christmas Special

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author JediKermit - Y’all know that I’m a Muppet freak. And I have been since I was just a pup. Many people think that Muppets are just entertainment for kids, and either your kids outgrow them or society does and it’s time to move on to more violent ventures. I don’t...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author jennythegreat - I don't have enough words to praise this, one of my favorite Christmas specials. This is based on a book by Russell Hoban (who wrote the Frances the badger books); it's still in print and just as good as the show.

This was a bit of a departure...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bmrosen - It's sad. Unless you had HBO sometime between 1980 and 1983, you've probably never heard of Emmet Otter, which is too bad. This hour long Christmas special is one of the most charming things to come out of Henson's troupe. Everything from the puppet...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author rannabeebo - This is one of the best children's videos ever made! Henson always comes out with some great children's classics. But, this one is a must for everyone's collection.

I just wish that there were more Emmet Otter movies out!

It's a great story,...
