In 1999, Muppets fans probably expected Kermit and friends to dive headfirst into a third consecutive literary adaptation. Instead, Jim Henson Company Pictures -- this time under Sony Pictures, not Disney -- decided to boldly go where no Muppet movie had gone before: the realm of science fiction. And so Muppets from Space was born.
Sandro Falce from Oldie But a Goodie stops by to discuss the black sheep of the Muppet movie franchise, the one installment that stands alone in the characters' eight-movie run. We'll discuss the decision to build the story around Gonzo, Pepe the Prawn's big break, and crown "the people's Muppet." Also, can someone please direct us to The Muppet House? Thanks!
