Just In Time For Christmas–Three Forgotten Holiday Specials

I read in the bathroom. Most people who are highly intelligent do. Ha! Anyway, the Uncle John Bathroom Reader book series is a great read for the little DJ's room. Always inspiring and informative. And timely as the date on the calender.

Here's UJ's review of 3 forgotten Christmas Specials. Including...

"A Muppet Family Christmas (1987)
Kermit, Miss Piggy, and all the other Muppets have been featured in a lot of Christmas-themed movies and TV specials over the years, notably the 1992 big-screen The Muppet Christmas Carol, and a 1979 special co-hosted by John Denver (which spawned their hit rendition of “The 12 Days of Christmas.” This TV special doesn’t get much airplay anymore. The plot: Fozzie Bear surprises his mother by staying at her country home over the holidays, along with most of the other Muppets, and many of monsters and critters from Sesame Street. Over the course of Christmas Eve, the Swedish Chef tries to cook Big Bird, Miss Piggy gets stuck in a blizzard ,and Kermit discovers an underground cavern that leads him to the magical creatures from Fraggle Rock. Watch for the cameo from Muppets/Sesame Street/Fraggle Rock creator Jim Henson, who shows up at the end to wash all of his creations’ dirty dishes. Or just watch the whole thing"

Love TV Christmas specials. Always watch A Charlie Brown Christmas. Thanks Uncle John!
