  • I like the buzzing!! if it wasn't you thanks youtube!!

  • Wow! I watch the DVD of this every year with my mom and I really enjoy it, but it is disappointing how much they cut out. (Ex: This song and 'Santa Claus is Coming to Town.' Thanks for uploading here.

  • what is happing to my computer it wont play at 1:07

  • At 0:50, anybody else reminded of Ethel Merman? :]

  • They cut this from the DVD? Why?

  • WTF happend at 1:07 - 1:08?!!

  • Never mind. Just an issue with YouTube. But seriously, last time this video went to 1:18 or so, I heard "RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR" like it froze up on me! Dang YouTube!!!

  • hey! it did the same thing to me at 1:09

  • My family taped the original airing of it on TV and we still have the VHS copy...just dubbed it to DVD ♥ We also have the original of Emmett Otter's Jugband Christmas with the Kermit scenes. I'm glad we taped them way back when since so many of the classic scenese are cut now

  • i love the jugband christmas

  • Would love a copy of this if you would help. The ones they are selling are too much and are edited, as you already know.

  • You're right. A friend of mine sent me what he thought was the original show, & the cuts were there. Yet I remember the scene with Fozzie & Snowman, watching it with my kids back in the 80's. Love this show.

  • christmas wouldnt be the same without the muppets

  • feeling christmasy...check out my vid of "The Grinch Who Stole Christmas animation - narrated by Jah Rule"

  • thanks a house guest stole a bunch of my old videos - many christmas classics and this was one of them...

  • This show is always a Christmas classic!

  • i let a guy at my work borrow this last week.

    he says its out of print and goes for like 40 bucks on dvd.....

    good thing i bought this like 6 years ago...it came in a two pack with emit otters jug band xmas

  • I managed to get this on a DVD of this it was one of those off the market specials. still had all but one scene and for 5 bucks I couldn;t resist.

  • It's still possible to get the original, uncut Muppet Family Christmas, even if it's only on VHS.

  • i absouloutly LOVE the muppets (:

  • not really, i have the vhs. this isn't on it.

  • Is this on DVD?

  • don't ya just love 1:08 :D ?

  • what the hell!

  • this movie and muppet christmas carol are great

  • why does it miss up and beap.

  • i watch this every year

  • This musical number with both Fozzy Bear and his Snowman should have not been deleted from it's original televised version when it was released onto VHS and DVD back in 1999.

    If Disney now owns this great Christmas TV special, I hope Disney will release this uncut; with all the musical numbers and all of the scenes as it was first shown on TV back in Christmas of either 1986 or 1987.

  • rowlf and sprocket!!!

  • i love this... i watch it every xmas !!!! then i have the christmas feeling....

  • yeah for me to :(

  • yep

  • me also!

  • ditto

  • You're not the only one.

  • @boilerXmen4116 ---> Shortly after the verse about singing "without a single stop", ironically :-/

  • @boilerXmen4116 SAME HERE. EVERYTHING IS RUINED FOREVER.

  • This movie is a huge part of my childhood, thankyou so much

  • lol

  • According to Wikipedia this and other scenes from the original airing were cut because when they fillmed they oly got the rights to use the music on tellevision, not in later releases. Drat, I'd LOVE a full release. Apparently the UK release is less edited due to different laws.

  • I remeber taping this in christmas 1988 with all the orignal commercials, one was a lego and a classic Nabisco and more with upcoming shows whos the boss mr. belvadear. I still have it and I got to get it put on a DVD so I can watch it again

  • We did the same, and still watch that tape every freaking Christmas - I have all the commercials memoriezed.

  • I remember that Mr. Belvadear spot on my tape as well. Thanks for the memories.

  • I still have this from when it was on TV. LOL I loved this song !!! too bad it's not on DVD or the VHS I bought. My favorite line is the "I love out of tune pianos"

  • I was thinking about buying the DVD, that is sad they didn't release the whole cut...

  • I remember this!! I saw it a long time ago :)

  • You know what I think they(the people who made the DVD) just copied from the "edited for time edition" slackers

  • This was the whole reason we bought the video last year! My brother and sister were so disappointed it was cut.

  • Thank you so much! this is my favorite part but I hate that it was cut from the DVD version!!

  • Cute, but what happens to the video at 1:08?

  • sweet, the muppets are so kwl,
