    • Alternate versions
      When this special re-aired on Nickelodeon, the opening title card was cut; the montage subsequently went directly to the first scene following the first commercial break. Also edited was the position of the commercial break intro that originally occurred after the "Pure Imagination" song: on Nickelodeon, it was moved to after the previous scene: the "Galley-oh-hoop-hoop" scene.

    release this on DVD!

    I am watching this right now, on my very old VHS tape and I wish it was released on DVD I have had it since I was like 6 years old... I watch it religiously but I am afraid it is going to break. I think I may eventually transfer is to DVD. They have the 25th anniversary, I found it on Amazon.. if anyone has any info or a better version please let me know!!!!! There are so many stars in this anniversary edition, they do sell The Best of the Muppets on Amazon as well, but it would be expensive to buy all of them! ANyone else who has seen this please comment, it seems as if I am alone in this one.. Why do we need at least ten lines to submit a comment??
