Emmet Otter Jug-Band Christmas Fact/Quotes:"Pa used to say, 'A person's got to take some chances or life will never come to nothin'." - Ma Otter"At the time we were doing so much work. And this is one of the things we're doing. And so it was, for me, another gig, another job for Jim. But it was special in that it was very sweet. Jim took chances on just being sweet and there's a lot of power in that. It was also just the fun of performing not with special effects or anything. It was just kind of nice to do that." - Frank OzFact provided by SyFy.com: "The special was also an unofficial audition for singer/songwriter Paul Williams, who wrote all of the film's original songs and the score. The success of this project led to his hiring by Henson to score and write the songs for the Muppet Movie."
