Quick wit, slapstick comedy, excellent puppets and puppetry conceived by Jim Henson, an astounding array of guest stars, and a whole lot of backstage chaos made The Muppet Show a favorite family show for a whole generation in the mid to late 1970's and those same ingredients make it equally enjoyable for today's audiences. The 24 episodes of this second 1976 season of The Muppet Show represent the family variety show at its strongest, with familiar characters like host Kermit the Frog, his assistant Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Rolph the piano playing dog, and regular segments like 'Pigs in Space,' 'Veterinarian's Hospital,' 'Swedish chef,' and 'At the Dance.' Intermingled throughout are silliness, skits, and songs featuring an impressive roster of guest stars including entertainment greats like Judy Collins, Don Knotts, Bernadette Peters, Dom Deluise, George Burns, John Clese, and Bob Hope. The hilarious predicaments of the Muppets and their guest stars are absolutely timeless and the look back in time at the earlier careers of enduring stars like Steve Martin, Julie Andrews and Elton John is equally fascinating. Highlights of this second season are Kermit's emotional ballad 'It's Not Easy Being Green,' Judy Collins classic rendition of 'Send in the Clowns,' the two old men's curmudgeonly and witty criticism of every show, Miss Piggy's determined and amorous pursuit of Kermit, and the Swedish Chef's bumbling inability to catch up with the chicken. Bonus features include the rare 1974 Muppets Valentine Special featuring a young Mia Farrow and a host of virtually unknown Muppet characters including the enormous blue monster, Thog. Also included is Muppets' music video of 'Keep Fishin',' and interview footage of 'The Muppets on the Muppets.' Whether reliving childhood evenings spent with family around the television or experiencing The Muppet Show for the first time, viewers of all ages will adore this second season. --Tami Horiuchi

Rating:  - funny lots of laugh with legends
Surprise there all there all the funny comics of that error and are they funny you can really appreciate how dedicated they were to this film and it laughter all the way plus you get 4 dvd which are dedicated to each character you will really enjoy this films
Rating:  - Not as good as the first set.
This may not matter to alot of people,but I was really bummed after buying this set and discovering no Muppet Morsels(the pop-up facts about the show and the guest stars)like they had on the first set.When I buy classic movies and shows I really enjoy learning little things about them that I may not have known before.Most sets like this have a commentary track or something,this has nothing like that,and after having it on the first set I feel like I'm getting less for my money.If you don't care about things like that,and just want the episodes then it's a good set,but I was a little disappointed.
Rating: - Hilarious
This is a great dvd set! (as was the 1st one) Lots of big guest stars. My whole family LOVES it. Especially my 2-year-old! We can't wait for season 3! My husband and I love re-watching these old shows that we watched as kids!
Rating: - Muppets Classics
I bought this because I have season 1, for the nostalgia. My three children love the Muppets and season 2 was a huge improvement over season 1. Some of the best guests the muppets ever had, including Edger Bergan and Charlie McCarthy, Steve Martin, , Don Knotts, Bernadette Peters, Dom Deluise, George Burns, John Clese, and Bob Hope. I'd never need another Muppet Show episode if it included John Denver, but alas, he didn't show up until season 4.
Rating: - The Best Family Viewing Ever
I introduced my four grandsons to the Muppet Show with the first season.
We had all but worn it out when I learned that the Second Season was available. Now we have a new treasure of pure fun, for children and adults alike, to share as a family. I've already pre-ordered Season Three. The Muppet Show is a national treasure.
