Sabrina Carpenter Hosts ‘The Muppet Show’ Special: How to Watch the Musical Event Online

Just wrapped a preview for the new #TheMuppetShow. Despite the decades (!) since the last episode of the original aired, it honestly felt like no time had passed at all. It was nice to finally see something that truly channeled the spirit of our favorite #muppets in all of their madcap glory, and not just as some homage. This was original, fresh *and* nostalgic all at the same time. Please, Disney, give us more… #themuppets #muppetshow2026

The Labyrinth 40th Anniversary review
long post warning
Had a rare family movie night at the cinema this past weekend, seeing the 40th Anniversary reissue of The Labyrinth. My kiddo didn't want to see Avatar 3, so given that this classic was something that my wife had watched over and over on VHS as a kid, Labyrinth it was! The digital transfer from film for this was really good, with no real flaws in it, apart from some noticeable grain from the opening scenes. The kiddo enjoyed it for the most part, although they said they didn't really think they would want to ever see it again. My kiddo noted that it seemed like the main character of Sara was a schizophrenic. The wifey & I both thought it was really fun though.
A few thoughts from it:
The most stark realization, was that the equivalent of my kiddo watching a film from 1986, was if we had watched a movie from 1946 when this first came out. Twas a time before the internet, and besides the minimal (but obvious) green screening, relied almost always on the joys of puppetry, from some masters at it, and on practical effects. But I think for my kiddo the cultural time shift was the equivalent of when I would watch post-WWII era black & white movies when I was a kid.
Toby Froud, who played the baby Toby, is now 41 years old. Incredibly he ended up working as a special effects designer, puppeteer, and filmmaker, following in director Jim Henson's footsteps. One thing I felt in watching the film this time, was feeling a little bad for him given how much scene time he was crying.
David Bowie came off as iconic as ever for me. Given there are a few lines he delivers a little stiffly, this isn't his best performance as an actor (you'd have to go to "The Man Who Fell to Earth" and "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence" for that I think) but you can also get the feeling he's being a good sport and having great fun with the Muppets from it as well. This release occurs on the 10 year memorial of Bowie's passing too, so seeing him up there hit on that level too.
The Goblin King Jareth does come off to me more in some scenes as a creepy groomer, on this rewatch. During the ballroom dancing scene my kiddo said to me "I don't like this part", and I appreciated that, given that I don't think in retrospect that we should.
Jennifer Connelly's performance was great. Given it was usually just her and some puppets, she carried the movie incredibly well.
The songs are a joy. The wife and I used to perform "Magic Dance" often when we were part of the 20 piece This Ambitious Orchestra, during the various Bowie tribute nights we performed at in various NYC venues 13+years ago, so it was fun to hear the original again.
And Jim Henson's creations were brilliant. I still heart Ludo the troll as my favorite of these, noting the following day after watching this flick the wifey and I were walking around saying "smells bad" in imitation of its voice. This was Henson's final film that he got to direct, and when it came out the box office and critics reviews were that it was "mid" - but very glad to see that this flick was acknowledged as a gem later in its life.

THE MUPPETS
The Great Muppet Caper (An Original Soundtrack Recording)
1981 Canada pressingThere are two things from my childhood that will never cease bringing me joy, even as a crotchety misanthropic old man.
The first is the Peanuts gang and all things Charlie Brown.
The second is The Muppets.I found this in a used bin on Black Friday while spending all of the gift certificates I got as gifts over the holiday.
As soon as I saw it in the rack, I instantly started to sing “Happiness Hotel” to myself.
My local shop’s owner thought I was having a massive stroke.Of all of the Muppet movie soundtracks, this one is probably the weakest one, but if you love The Muppets (and all of the films) like I do, you really couldn’t give a shit.
So happy I found this.
Only one I’m missing now is Muppets Take Manhattan.

“..A thing… whatever Gonzo is… He kinda looks like a Turkey ”- Kermit in “The Muppet Movie” (1979)
“…and Gonzo’s a.. uh.. uh.. whatever”- Ratso Rizzo in “Muppets Treasure Island” (1996)
I think it’s clearly establish that Gonzo is a “whatever”😂

45 years since it's release, 35 years since I first heard it (we had it on vinyl), the Muppet Movie soundtrack still sends shivers down my spine, tears in my eyes, and knots in my throat.
Every single one of the songs hits perfect. The Rainbow connection, Can You Picture That, Moving Right Along, and most importantly The Magic Store.
Special mention for Gonzo's "I'm Going Back There Someday." the most famous Enby.
