Featured review
This is a fun special. I'm a huge fan of the Muppets and could really watch anything the Henson people have done over the years. This is one of my least favourites of what they have done but I still like it. The only down side for me is that the entire special as you would imagine is focused on Miss Piggy and she's my least favourite Muppet. The voice and shrillness and the whiny complaints grate on my ears after a while and there's only so much of her singing I can take in one sitting. Not bashing it though, it's still a fine special and for anyone who likes Miss Piggy more than me you're gonna love it.
