Finally worked up the courage to watch this one today. I’ve been putting it off, knowing that it would make me emotional, but I wanted to watch it in honor of my hero & idol finally.
This was beautiful. I’ve never cried so hard over a piece of media before. When it got to the part at the end where all of the Muppets realized Jim died, I was especially a total bawling mess. The line “Jim DIED?! We were just starting to know him” from Gonzo absolutely wrecked me in particular
What a wonderful tribute to a spectacular man. Rest in peace Jim 💖

It’s mostly a clip show but it celebrates Henson’s life masterfully
