First, the Muppets got a movie. They solved a great caper. But taking Manhattan? In this economy?! Well, that's next in our Muppets mega-series. In 1984's The Muppets Take Manhattan, Kermit and company aspire to become Broadway stars. And director Frank Oz brings as much heart and unforgettable songs as fans would expect from a Muppet movie. The Vern from Cinema Recall joins the show to delve deep into the third theatrically released Muppet film. We'll discuss how Oz's film meddles even more with the Muppets' already loose canon, which musical numbers tug at our heartstrings the most, and The Muppets Take Manhattan's standing as the final entry in the franchise featuring Muppets creator Jim Henson.
