EMMET OTTERS JUG BAND CHRISTMAS (DVD)

I enjoyed this movie now with my Grandsons as much as the orriginal in 79 with their mother.............worth the time it took to find it.

This movie has been a tradition for my family since it came out in the 70's. I was thrilled to finally see it on DVD especially with all of the extra footage. I would suggest this movie to anyone with or without kids. It is a wholesome show with great vaules.

Purchased Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas as a "memory" for adult children, as we used to watch this constantly when they were young. It was a surprise and quite a hit, even now.

This is a classic muppet video. I never saw it before and my sister (52) and myself (53) got a big kick out of it. Pretty short(hour-ish maybe?)--which should be great for the kids. very funny and very clever.

Emmet and his mother are a simple family. They don't need much to be happy. When the Christmas talent show nears, Emmet and his friends decide to sign up. They create a jug band. Emmet is torn between winning the the show and putting a hole in his mothers wash tub to make his instrument. He's hoping that he can win the show to help pay for a new washtub. On a personal note: My mom and I watched the show everytime we could when it come on HBO many moons ago. Some 25 years later, I bought it for her his past Christmas. We are hoping to rekindle that tradition.
Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas is wonderful story. Don't miss it. I hope it becomes a tradition to watch it every year in your household. I don't that you will find this review helpful, I just hope you will like it.
