Sailing for adventure on the big blue wet thing! We hit the high seas with our pals, the Muppets, for one of our favorite Muppet things: Muppet Treasure Island! Why doesn't Tim Curry get the same level of love as Michael Caine? Does this need more Muppets? Also, we out ourselves as not loving Muppet Christmas Carol! All this and more!
