I could just cry I miss the Muppets. :"(

absolutely lovely behind the scenes film - captures an obviously brilliant behind the scenes relationship in the team

You should send this to Disney so they can include this on the TMS S5 boxset. This has to be the perfect companion to "Of Muppets and Men!"

The Muppet Show was something unique, and I am more of a fan today than I was at age ten during the autumn when it debuted here in America. As the years roll by, I become more impressed by the program, and find its charms and comedy to be even more of a tonic today than in my youth. The characters become like real friends who you know. And the whole zany flavor is so winning and delightful. It seems much more a show for grownups, although children naturally were drawn to it. The show felt like a love letter to vaudeville and Hollywood and entertainment and music. Can't begin to imagine what it must have been like to be on the crew, or to put that final episode on tape and realize that the show was 100% finished. I am grateful to everyone who was a part of this team. To create something this special and fun is a great legacy for the whole world to enjoy always.

Always beautiful to see Jim, Frank, Dave and Richard in action. ❤

This is amazing footage!! Thank you so much for sharing it! God Bless Jim Henson! :)

Jim Henson knew The Muppet Show would have a life in reruns. He didn't want the series to wear out its welcome. Frankly, if other showrunners and executives could understand that, it'd be all for the better.

Aww i miss the muppets!

jim henson is always living

Thank you for sharing this with the world.

Long Live Richard Hunt!!!!

Long live the Muppets, The Muppet Show, Jim Henson and his cast.

And later on it's "What Would We Do Without You?" from COMPANY! by Sondheim. I was in local productions of both those shows. Hey, thanks for this great glimpse of the Muppets crew off camera!

This was a brilliant finale, Marty Feldman ended the show with a BANG!
