PLOT
It isn't easy to convince a beautiful Princess you're
really the noble prince who can rescue her kingdom.
Especially when you're only six inches tall and have
green flippers. The irrepressible Muppets take on one
of the world's favorite fairy tales in this tuneful and
hilarious story, featuring Kermit's own nephew Robin,
an awful witch, and an ogre named Sweetums.
RIP NOTES
The short-lived Tales from Muppetland series continued
Henson's collaboration with Canadian Broadcasting Corp.,
which would later result in Fraggle Rock and several
more productions. This was also Richard Hunt's first
major role, Jerry Juhl having handed over duties of the
evil witch Taminella Grinderfall, which he puppeteered
in Tales of the Tinkerdee, but keeping the voice part.
Richard would become another key Muppet performer,
performing Beaker, Statler, Janice and Sweetums on The
Muppet Show, and Junior Gorg and Gunge on Fraggle Rock,
among many others.
CRNVCD released this Laserdisc 6 years ago, but there
were a number of issues with it. Its Mono sound had been
encoded as Stereo, and frankly it didn't look very good.
Enjoy!
For the month of December we've decided to
do something special. The FLAiR 2010 advent
calendar will be celebrating the life and
career of Jim Henson, from humble beginnings
until his untimely death 20 years ago.
Every day until Christmas we will be bringing
you new titles from the archives, including
specials, interviews, documentaries, clips
and behind the scenes footage, from every
type of source available to us. Our goal
is to provide real insight into the vast
output of one of the greatest story-
tellers of the 20th century, and the
many talented performers and enablers
that allowed true Muppet magic to grow.
Sit back and join us as we go looking
for the rainbow connection, and remember
to check back daily. We'll be listing them
here as we go!
