The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson is probably the saddest thing I've ever watched on Television. Made just after the death of Jim Henson, The Muppets and Sesame Street friends and special guests remember the great man, from his humble beginnings to the huge influence he became. His life is explored my the Muppets who aren't sure who he is, which is a successful idea but all the more sad once they realize he's gone. I cry every time I see it but it is a great tribute, if you can find it, watch it but not without tissues.
