      “Muppet Christmas Carol” works because Michael Caine treats the Muppets as fellow actors.

      “Muppet Treasure Island” works because Tim Curry treats himself as a fellow muppet.

      A friend said to me: “It’s great because Michael Caine acts like the Muppets are real, and Treasure Island is great because Tim Curry acts like he’s a Muppet.”
