Ok, so its just an excuse to get every single muppet together to sing christmas carols but it works. Plus it has one of, if not THE last appearance of Jim Henson before he passed away
The story finds Kermit & the rest of the muppet show characters(excepy Miss Piggy) on their way to visit Fozzies mom at her farm house. Its a surprise visit, so of course Fozzies mom is on her way out of town for a vacation in Hawaii. She cuts her vacation short when the whole gang shows up. The visitors upset Doc & his dog Sprocket who had rented the farmhouse for their Christmas vacation.
Miss Piggy is trying to get to the farmhouse, but is having difficulty because there is a massive snowstorm.
while everyone is waiting for Miss Piggy, the crew from Sesame Street shows up caroling
Doc volunteers to go out into the storm to find Miss Piggy. After Doc leaves, Robin finds a Fraggle hole in the basement. He & Kermit go in & meet the Fraggles.
After leaving Fraggle rock Miss Piggy finally arrives with Doc & the whole group of muppets sing carols. The movie ends with Jim Henson talking to Sprocket & then the two heading off to do dishes
Over all this is a great dvd. Theres not much in the way of story, but its good muppet fun, & the only time I recall them ALL together. Its not likely to happen again either with the whole Disney fiasco.
There is one scene where Fozzy builds a snowman that comes to life that is cut, even though the snowman is shown in other parts. This dvd is also out of print, so it might be hard to obtain. If you can track down a copy on ebay or amazon for a good price pick it up
