This is not part of the Holiday Music Fest this year -- that's over and done with. But it does overlap very closely with the season, so I thought today would be a good day for it. But before getting to the video of note, it helps to set it up with this other companion video that puts the Main Show in perspective. Brett Goldstein plays the deeply gruff character 'Roy Kent' on the series Ted Lasso, and writes for the show, as well. But in addition to being a pretty genial fellow, he hwas a major love for the Muppets (when he appeared on Sesame Street with them, he said he was one of his career highlights) -- and especially a great love of their movie musical The Muppets Christmas Carol. (With songs by Paul Williams.) In this 21-minute video, Goldstein interviews Kermit, Miss Piggy, Gonzo (who narrates the film as Charles Dickens) and Kermit's nephew Robin about his favorite movie. It's fun, endearing and weird watching the whole interview. And the details sort of help with the video to follow. But it's really just to establish the point how much he loves the movie. So, even just a few minutes should suffice if you want to jump past. Now, you might think, okay, that shows how much Brett Goldstein loves The Muppets Christmas Carol. But no! How much does he really love the movie? Here he is, performing his one-man, 6-minute The Muppets Christmas Carol, singing the songs and each in costume. That's how much Brett Goldstein loves The Muppets Christmas Carol.
