This movie stands the test of time! I still laughed at all of the jokes and every song was my favorite!

After that first second we quit wondering: This is magic, after all, so who wants to know where Henson is?

It's also very well written by Jerry Juhl and Jack Burns and directed by James Frawley (Kid Blue, The Big Bus) with a comic touch that never becomes facetious.
