The Muppet Christmas Carol

from The Busy Signal · host Jym

It’s time to "light the lamp, not the rat!"This week on The Busy Signal, my buddy George and I revisit The Muppet Christmas Carol—the early ’90s holiday classic that somehow managed to be heartfelt, hilarious, and surprisingly faithful to Dickens. We talk Muppet humor, Michael Caine’s all-in performance, and why this movie still hits us right in the Christmas feels.
