A Muppet Family Christmas gets my vote. I remember as a kid having my mind BLOWN when I saw characters from Fraggle Rock, Sesamie Street, the Muppets all together. Plus it has my all time favorite Swedish Chef moment:

Doc: "I don't care if the turkey says the dog is the turkey! The dog is not the turkey! The turkey's the turkey, you turkey!"

Muppet Christmas Carol isn't only the best Muppets Christmas movie, but it is definitely the best Christmas Carol movie.

Definitely hands down the best Christmas Carol movie ever.

I love A Muppet Christmas Carol but there is something so wonderful about seeing all the Muppets together in A Muppet Family Christmas. And you get to see Jim Henson at the end, which never fails to make me cry.

Bert: Did you know that 'Doc' starts with the letter D?

Doc: Why, yes.

Ernie: 'Yes'. 'Yes' starts with the letter Y!

Doc: True...

Ernie: And 'true' starts with the letter T!

Doc: Hey, what is this?

Bert: Where we come from, this is small talk.

Go buy the Muppet Family Christmas DVD, but to see most of it in its original form, check it out on youtube This special blew my mind as a kid, all my favorite characters in one place!

What's the difference? Did they cut anything out?

[–]MikeTheBumMuppet of a Man 0 points1 point ago

They did. I don't know exactly what. I think there's a website that details the differences. I'm not even sure if the youtube rip is the original or a rebroadcast.

Muppet Family Christmas by a long shot... I adore Christmas Carol but Family Christmas destroys me

[–]masteractor 1 point2 points ago

I like both. Need to rewatch both of them now.

A Muppet Family Christmas. A Christmas Carol is a overdone story, that benefits little from the appearance of the Muppets, and they spend most of the film playing second fiddle to the human characters. Also, Michael Caine singing. Shudder

It's not a a Muppet movie 'per say'... but it is Henson! The Christmas Toy ~ LOVE that movie.
