it does exist!
Dec. 10th, 2023 08:22 amI was thinking about Christmas music this week (as one does), and listening to one of my all-time faves (We Need A Little Christmas, Johnny Mathis), and I thought 'didn't I first hear this song in a muppet movie???'
I managed to come up with the following recollections:
*a Sunday night tv movie???
*Whoopi Goldberg as God???
*the theater was being shut down, maybe???
None of these things really seemed to make sense, but lo! The internet has provided an answer. There was INDEED a made-for-tv muppets movie released in 2002, just before Disney swooped in:
It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie
It was "loosely" based on "It's a Wonderful Life," which probably explains why I didn't think it was very fun to watch. But the wiki article is an interesting read, AND it was a fun excuse to go listen to Christmas music again!
