One of my favorite shows growing up. Glad to see it was available and at a good price. Advanced puppets used to tell great stories, jokes, and to show the truth of a family's life in a way that people are willing to listen to. Seriously, check this show out and fall in love with the Sinclair family, trying to raise 2 teenagers and one baby on a blue collar job's pay. Earl (the father) having to deal with his son not accepting the world Earl himself accepts. Charlene growing from a teenager to a young adult. Baby (best character) stealing the scenes left right and center. And Fran, the mother who loves her family but has to balance that with taking care of herself. Seriously, check this show out.

I don't like that you have nothing free everything you have to pay for. Everyone can not afford this some working people especially if your not working This is a five star along with Curious George & the others I hope you can help with this problem, everyone child should be able to learn no matter what the circumstances are with parents, grandparents. Hopefully You Can Help, It Is Very Much Appreciated. Thank You

Besides being the funniest show of all time, both in terms of simple children's humor (not the mama, "CLUNK") and quick-witted mature social commentary, this show is full of life lessons for the whole family. Touching on sensitive subjects from war, drug use, and sexuality to family matters, social status, and death- the show knows no bounds when it comes to addressing many issues of today's society (and these issues are even more pertinent now then when the show was created). Personally, I have been able to relate this show to my life in so many ways that I believe it truly makes me a better person. This is one of Jim Henson's best works and is a tribute to his life.
