Watch the video above, or read a complete transcript below. Let's honor Christmas in our hearts, and try to keep it all the year, as Kermit, Miss Piggy, Robin, and Gonzo take us — and Goldstein — through their Christmases Past, Present, and Future.Hello, and welcome to Entertainment Weekly's Around the Table. My name is Brett Goldstein. I'm an actor, a writer, a director, a plumber, and I love the Muppets.
KERMIT: No, no, no, no. I'm just saying that we have not had ice in the swamp since then. That's what I've been told. It's old frog lore. Don't you have any lore from your… whatevers?KERMIT: How about Robin, what about you? Do you have a favorite moment from the film? KERMIT: Well, we were a little bit worried about the ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. It's a very frightening character. Fun fact here, and thisKERMIT: Yeah. But when Michael Caine turned around and saw me, he couldn't stop giggling so we changed it up a bit there.ROBIN: I just had to cover my eyes during that whole part. In fact, Mr. Brett, please let me know when you're done with this question.
MISS PIGGY: Oh, I agree with Kermit, but if I had to pick one song, then I choose, "It Feels Like Christmas." I've always believed that every day should feel like Christmas: joy, glad tidings, and especially —KERMIT: Well, I've known you a long time.GONZO Well, I'm with Kermit. They're all great songs. I'm a little bit disappointed, though, that my big solo number, "I'm Charles Dickens and You're Not," got cut from the final film.
GONZO: The handwriting. Quill pens can make a lot of curlicues and flourishes. To be honest, I had to use a stunt calligrapher.GOLDSTEIN: There's a whole union for them. Kermit. This is the first Muppet movie where you weren't the lead. I think you're absolutely fabulous as Bob Cratchit.
ROBIN: Well, I tried one interpretation of Tiny Tim, where he was a WWE wrestler and wrestled Mr. Scrooge. That got pretty quickly rejected. But as for the cough, well, growing up in a swamp, coughing is easy, especially when the horsefly goes down a wrong pipe [The Muppet Christmas Carol 1992One of the great performances of all time. He should have won an Oscar for that.
