Muppet Christmas Carol
The Muppets


I would not feel comfortable claiming to have seen any of the others properly, just bits and pieces.

I've only seen 3 recent enough to remember. Christmas Carol is the only great one of the three I've seen though. The Muppet Movie was pretty good, The Muppets was pretty bad.

Glad to see someone else appreciates Muppet Treasure Island.
Were you not able to put The Muppet Show into a rank?

Is it bad that Muppet Treasure Island might be my favorite?

I don't want to rank it. Also, I feel like I've watched more Muppets Tonight than I've watched The Muppet Show. So, it's off the list.

Muppet Treasure Island has the most insane musical number possibly of all time? I'VE GOT CABIN FEVER... I'VE GOT CABIN FEVER... TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....

 :D I love it.

I can't vote. I can't possibly pick a favorite.

Oh man, how did I forget Muppets Tonight? I recorded the whole series on VHS and rewatch them all the time. It's where Pepe came from. (I miss Seymour) and it's where Bobo immediately became one of my favorite Muppets. His episode with Cindy Crawford is hysterical. I also loved Michelle Pfeiffer, Sandra Bullock (doing mana mana, and that entire episode was a parody of Speed where they had to keep the ratings above 50), and Garth Brooks (the best thing he ever did).

And I agree. Muppets Treasure Island is worth seeing just for Cabin Fever. Also, the last time I watched it I realized the plot is remarkably similar to Curse of the Black Pearl.
