VHS Movie Reviews of Muppet Family ChristmasMovie Review: There's hope out there!! Summary: 4 StarsLike everyone else, I've been searching for this show on DVD for YEARS! It was a favorite of mine when I was little. We had it on VHS, but sometime between me moving out and my brother, it got lost. As much as I loved this, I wasn't going to spend 200 bucks for it. However, I found a website that tracks down old, hard to find DVDs and sells them for an appropriate price. Lo and behold, they had a copy for $18 plus $4 shipping!! I bought it and just got it in the mail today and I've already watched it. It's a two disk set. The first disc is the remastered, yet chopped up version and the second disc was the original, televised broadcast! The quality wasn't the best in the world....you can tell it was recorded off of a beta or VHS, but it's still completely watchable if you don't mind the occasional glitches (hey, after 20+ years, my VHS was in worse shape than this). So there's hope out there! Here's the link....hopefully, they'll have more for all those out there still looking for a copy....

Movie Review: Parts Missing Summary: 2 StarsLike everyone else, I am disappointed that there are parts missing from the video version of the show. Luckily I was able to find the original one on Limewire and download it for free. It's the one that is 587 MB. Hope this can help some other people get the real version!!
Movie Review: Muppet Family Christmas Horror! Summary: 1 StarsI like many others bought this anticipating not have to watch a VHS recorded TV copy anymore. To my disappointment, they edited out all the best parts, what a disgrace to Jim Henson!! I bought the DVD which is now collecting dust. I watch a worn out VHS tape that's twenty years old. I would rather sit through tracking problems and the tape skipping, than watch the "new" edited disgrace that was once my beloved Muppet Family Christmas. They should let people know that it's been edited. I enjoy watching my tape with Osh Kosh B-Osh, M&M's, Milk, and Extra Gum commercials. I rather sit through old commercials than watch this DVD that has disgraced the Jim Henson name!! For shame on whoever won't pay money to let the DVD be unedited! Don't they have enough money? Why do they have to mess with a legacy? They're all greedy jerks and I will continue watching my 20 year old VHS tape until the unedited version is out and I recommend this to everyone, DON'T BUY THIS!!!!
Movie Review: A Family Tradition! Summary: 4 StarsWe have been watching this for years. Unfortunately, in the DVD version they've cut out a couple of songs and the comedy routine between Fozzie and the Snowman (Reindeer, SNOW Darling!) If those hadn't been cut this would be 5 stars for certain.
Why don't they re-release this intact? All songs included and COMPLETE! Look at the prices people are asking for the used versions. Of course I wouldn't sell ours at twice the price.
Mom! Son! AaaAaaaah!!! Watch out for the Icy Patch!!!
Summary of Muppet Family ChristmasA warm Yuletide special, A Muppet Family Christmas pairs the Muppet gang with the perennial favorite Sesame Street cast for a holiday celebration. With a blizzard brewing outside, Fozzie's childhood farmhouse on Christmas Eve becomes the backdrop for a medley of holiday tunes--eight in all--ranging from the Muppet band's rousing "Jingle Bell Rock" to Big Bird's sweet rendition of "The Christmas Song." Though the script meanders in part, the 42-minute program shines as a musical revue, seasoned with quick-witted interludes by the culinary comedic Swedish Chef, slapstick odd couple Ernie and Bert, and the diva-like escapades of Miss Piggy. While lacking the irresistible sizzle of The Muppet Movie, the show's finale, which includes Kermit and Piggy under the mistletoe and a cameo appearance by Jim Henson, proves that nothing can dim the Muppets' appeal. --Lynn Gibson
