Hip Hip Parade!

About This Movie

Hip Hip Parade! is a fascinating artifact from the late '70s, blending the whimsy of The Muppets with the festive spirit of Thanksgiving. It’s interesting to see Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear stepping outside the usual sketches to host this primetime special. The pacing is relaxed, allowing viewers to soak in the parade's grandeur while the Muppets add their unique charm with quips and banter. You get a mix of performances, both from the Muppets and various guests, which creates a warm, communal atmosphere. The practical effects are charmingly simple, typical of the era, and there’s a certain nostalgia that permeates the whole production. It’s a slice of TV history, really, capturing that moment in time when holiday specials were a family event.
