Best of The Muppet Show - Volume 1: Elton John/Julie Andrews/Gene Kelley (DVD, 2002)

This DVD contains three episodes of The Muppet Show with an introduction by Brian Henson preceding each. All three are very enjoyable for fans of the Muppets and of the guests, and they're appropriate for kids. It's a shame there aren't good variety shows like The Muppet Show still being made, but you can relive some great television moments with this DVD.

The first episode features Elton John as the guest. He sings some of his famous songs and jokes with the Muppets about his attire. The entire cast dresses up in wild, Elton-style getups during the one scene where Elton wears normal clothes.

The second episode stars Julie Andrews, who is extremely sweet with the Muppets. She sings a specially written song to Kermit and has a fun number with Sweetums and several other large (human-sized), scary Muppets.

The third episode brings Gene Kelly to the Muppets' theater, but he thinks he's there to watch, not perform. He serenades Miss Piggy and Gonzo backstage before teaching Kermit to dance. Then, while Rowlf plays the piano and the rest of the cast gather around to listen, Kelly sings several songs from his movies, finishing with "Singin' in the Rain."

I like this transaction with this dealer because it was very smooth and I got the movie in a few days after purchase.

The Muppet Show was always quality family entertainment and this DVD certainly lives up the same standards.

My granddaughter wasn't around when the show was on the air, but she has seen a few videos from the show & loved them. I bought this for her, because I know she will love the show as much as I did.

My grandchildren love the muppets and this one was one their mom watched when she was alittle girl so it was wonderful to see my grandchildren enjoying the same show and enjoying it just as much and it brought back memories for me.

I was a little let down. This seems to be more for adults than holding the attention of kids. I expected more. My kids were unable to set and watch the shows because it just didn't hold their attention.
