Talk:A Muppet Family Christmas

Hey, folks...I'm pretty sure MFC originally aired first on CBS in 1987.

Everyone always mentions ABC and 1988, but that seems to be the year when everyone thought to record it. Every taped copy I've seen of this special is from the year it was rerun -- but it actually aired first the year before.

IMDB definitely lists the year as 1987, at any rate.

Does anyone have their copy of The Works handy? I believe it gives the accurate date and network. (Mine, sadly, is buried in the crawlspace right now.)

If someone looks it up and finds out I'm wrong, feel free to correct me, but I'm updating the page unless I hear otherwise.
