@SHeSaDIFFerntCHIck I did find it creepy as well, but I loved it, lol. I guess it was all the dark hallway shots and the toys freezing and everything.
@TrishTheNerd It's okay. Disney released a new Muppet movie last November, written by Jason Segel of "How I Met Your Mother" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" fame. It's already the best reviewed movie of 2011, received a 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and opened at #2 at the box office, only behind "Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 1". Jason is a huge Muppet fan, and has made the film as old-school as possible.
I watched this when I was a little girl and I always waited for this story year after year on TV.but then they just stopped to play it. I always have this memories about this beautiful little tiger and today it has been a wonderful surprise to realize it was a Jim Henson's story, he was truly a special person. Thanks for sharing this maggic! :)
@JainaMac10 - I saw it was on Netflix as well, but it is the Lions Gate DVD print, and yes, it is edited. It is indeed very hard to find the uncut version. I copied it to DVD several years ago, as I was worried that the tape might not last. You are very welcome, and Merry Christmas to you!
THANK YOU for this! They have it on Netflix right now but they cut out the part with Kermit from the beginning and all the other Muppets at the end!! I was so disappointed bc I watched this on TV the night that it premiered and I *remembered* Kermit but then I thought I was imagining things when it wasn't on the Netflix version haha. This is what I remember from my many viewings of the VHS tape that we taped it on. :)
this is the best, it brings me back to happier days. thank you sooo much for posting this. i can't express how awesome this is for me to watch this again. i haven't seen this for than 15 years. it was my favorite x-mas special that i loved watching. thank you soo much again for posting this. happy holidays to you and everyone. =]
The Hub is airing this--tomorrow, I believe. I swear, that channel...it's as though they're taking direction from me, although I'm fairly sure they aren't...
Thank you so much. I remember the tv show and still have a few episodes on VHS, like the mummy one, the one with the paper clown, the ond with the lost toy monkey sock and a few other , I still occasionally watch them now and I'm 19. I hope that it wount wear out because they don't air it any more.
Thanks for posting! I was 2 years old when this came out! But I remember it. I must have watched it when I got older as well. I was searching Netflix for Jim Henson shows/movies and "The Secret Life of Toys" came up and it sparked a memory that I haven't thought of in YEARS! I just HAD to find this movie! Thanks for posting!
Thank you very much, I never saw this. Actually I was searching for "The Muppet Christmas Carol Story Album" (the story of the MCCarol told by Gonzo and Rizzo) and I landed here ^^
(by the way, if anybody knows where I could download/buy it, I'd appreciate it ! I can't find it anywhere ! =/ )
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! Allison I don't know how to thank YOU... . I've never seen this movie, but >Secret life of Toys< is for me soooo MAGICAL .. Muppets.. Secret life of TOYS+KERMIT+Christmas atmosphere....= .. I even can't name it.. THANK YOOUUUUU !!! !! ! I can't wait for december..
OMG I can't believe I found this thank you SOOOOO much for putting it up! I adored this movie and it took me until this morning to remember what it was called. I an so happy!!!
@dianalighthope - You're welcome! It is very hard to find, but once you do find it...you never forget it. I've had this tape since 1986 and I transferred it to DVD in 2009 to keep it preserved. I've actually had to make copies for my friends. I'm popular among them because I have the full version with Kermit, something the DVD version of this special lacks due to copyrights. So I consider my print a rarity.
This Is Awesome, Oh Btw Kermit The Frog Is Still So Cute In That Santa Claus Outfit, Another Btw I Wouldn't Mind It If Kermit The Frog was the guest host of WWE RAW.
@StefanoFan27 It is on DVD, except it is edited so the Kermit intro is removed. If Disney is smart, they will put out the REAL version of this on DVD (it was released by a different company after Disney acquired the Muppets). And yes, Kermit is adorable in the Santa suit!
yea well i'm not sure if the whole song is edited out, i'm just assuming the kermit parts are since this movie is owned by muppet studios still and kermit is now owned by disney. i loved this when iw as akid!

a little bit. Plus, This was made 2 years after The night they saved christmas and Marsha Moreau is 2 years younger than Laura Jacoby.
So Marsha was the same age in this as Laura was in The night the saved christmas. Which would only add to them looking more alike.
