A very Muppet Christmas

One of my favorite memories from growing up was our Christmas tradition of listening to John Denver and the Muppets when we were setting up the tree and on Christmas morning. So, it's been great fun indoctrinating teaching my kids all about these wonderful songs. It really is a lot of fun, I highly recommend it.



So, imagine my joy when I was surfing the other day and came upon an ad on NBC.com telling us about their new Muppet's Christmas special, A Muppets Christmas: Letters to Santa. I was so excited!!! And, I was really looking forward to sharing this with JAM after the two young ones were safely tucked into bed.

Then, we turned it on.

Big song and dance number up first, following a cameo by NYC Mayor Bloomberg.


So, what was the topic of said song and dance number that we were all waiting for???? The Post Office. Yup, Jesse L. Martin singing about how we should all be thankful for the mail carriers who bring our letters to Santa. It's going to be a long hour.

Oh, and Wifey didn't mind one bit that Mr. Law and Order himself showed up. *sigh*
