Description:
And now a show that needs no introduction, but here's one anyway... Go bonkers with Beaker, goofy with Gonzo and join the brave cast of 'Pigs In Space' for one of the most revolutionary and acclaimed shows in the history of television. Garnering an Emmy® Award for Outstanding Comedy-Variety or Music Program in its hilarious second season, THE MUPPET SHOW redefined prime time and showcased a host of outrageous guest stars, including Steve Martin, Peter Sellers, Elton John, Julie Andrews and more. Experience all 24 episodes from Season Two – digitally remastered and restored – in this special 4-disc DVD set. With hours of bonus features, including THE MUPPETS VALENTINE SPECIAL and rare archival footage, THE MUPPET SHOW is even better than you remember!
Amazon.com:
Quick wit, slapstick comedy, excellent puppets and puppetry conceived by Jim Henson, an astounding array of guest stars, and a whole lot of backstage chaos made The Muppet Show a favorite family show for a whole generation in the mid to late 1970's and those same ingredients make it equally enjoyable for today's audiences. The 24 episodes of this second 1976 season of The Muppet Show represent the family variety show at its strongest, with familiar characters like host Kermit the Frog, his assistant Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Rolph the piano playing dog, and regular segments like 'Pigs in Space,' 'Veterinarian's Hospital,' 'Swedish chef,' and 'At the Dance.' Intermingled throughout are silliness, skits, and songs featuring an impressive roster of guest stars including entertainment greats like Judy Collins, Don Knotts, Bernadette Peters, Dom Deluise, George Burns, John Clese, and Bob Hope. The hilarious predicaments of the Muppets and their guest stars are absolutely timeless and the look back in time at the earlier careers of enduring stars like Steve Martin, Julie Andrews and Elton John is equally fascinating. Highlights of this second season are Kermit's emotional ballad 'It's Not Easy Being Green,' Judy Collins classic rendition of 'Send in the Clowns,' the two old men's curmudgeonly and witty criticism of every show, Miss Piggy's determined and amorous pursuit of Kermit, and the Swedish Chef's bumbling inability to catch up with the chicken. Bonus features include the rare 1974 Muppets Valentine Special featuring a young Mia Farrow and a host of virtually unknown Muppet characters including the enormous blue monster, Thog. Also included is Muppets' music video of 'Keep Fishin',' and interview footage of 'The Muppets on the Muppets.' Whether reliving childhood evenings spent with family around the television or experiencing The Muppet Show for the first time, viewers of all ages will adore this second season. --Tami Horiuchi

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - What happened to the fact bubbles?
I loved watching Season One because the DVD had a special feature where you could watch the episodes with various fact "bubbles" throughout the show about the episode, the guests, the puppets and their puppeteers, etc. I was hoping Season Two would also have this feature, but it doesn't. I still like watching the episodes, but it's just not as entertaining without that extra feature. I'm hoping Season Three has this feature again.
Rating:  - Funny & Timeless For Whole Family
Great humor for all ages. My teens love it and if a teen will watch it, you can't complain.
Rating: - Jim Henson was Brilliant
So Jim Henson created these wonderful characters, surrounded himself with some of the most brilliant and talented people, and developed some of the funnest shows ever to grace television.
From The Muppet Show to Sesame Street, to Fraggle Rock, Jim and his crew did an amazing job entertaining, teaching, but never bantering to children or parents, always treating both with such respect and love.
Muppet Show season 2 is just another example of these facts. The first season ... Read More
Rating: - Season 2, more of the best of Muppets!
What can I say? It's the muppets at their best! This one, like season 3, came with the "fuzzy" velvet covers. Great entertainment!
Rating:  - Gotta love a classic!!!
Just like season 1, this DVD does not disappoint! It's got great episodes and is fun for the whole family! The extras are a bit sparse, but because there are so many episodes, there are hours of enjoyment either way! For anyone who is a true muppet fan, or just looking to reminisce this is a great product!
