Volumes 1, 2 and 3 of The Best of the Muppet Show

Produced by: Time-Life
Release Date: 2001-2002
Discs: 15 (each sold separately)
Region: 1

The DVD in the series (each sold separately) contained 3 select episodes from The Muppet Show. The episodes included the UK Skits, however the season 1 opening sequence was replaced on the season 1 episodes with the syndication reworked "season 2" opening. Each episode included a brief introduction by Brian Henson, and each disc held some small bonus intersetials.

In honor of the 25th anniversary of The Muppet Show in 2002, Columbia began re-releasing these in stores. The only difference between the columbia and time-life versions are the company that released them. Otherwise, they were basically the same. Columbia actually announced that there would be 20 volumes, with two released every few months. Only fifteen episodes were released, and at the time only the first ten were available on DVD. Shortly after this, Time-Life released the remaining five volumes. Columbia began releasing two volumes every few months, which took a long waiting time, but then switched to one every other motnh. Then in 2004 it was announced that Disney had purchased the rights to the muppets, and Columbia didn't release any more (2004 was the year that Columbia's contract to release henson productions on video and DVD expired anyway).

Columbia released volumes 1-5 and 7-8.
