GDTD 290: The Muppet Christmas Carol
About this episode
Patrick and JT explore the history and significance of 'The Muppet Christmas Carol' as a holiday classic.
This week, Patrick and JT dive into the past, present and future of 1992's, 'The Muppet Christmas Carol'. This beloved holiday classic gives us Dickens, divas and high-camp drama. The boys unpack the film's bittersweet production history, Brian Henson's heartfelt direction, and how Michael Cain and the Muppets managed to turn a Victorian tale or morality and mortality into one of the most heartfelt and joyful Holiday traditions of all time. Plus, get the full tea behind disappearing / reappearing act that is: "When Love is Gone". Grab your figgy pudding and join us for a trip through (in our opinion) the greatest adaptation of 'A Christmas Carol,' ever made.
