On November 25, 1971, TV host Dick Cavett devoted an entire episode of his
show to Jim Henson and his Muppets. Throughout the interview, Jim introduces a
variety of Muppet characters and talks about many aspects of the Muppets,
including their construction and operation and their use on the educational
program, Sesame Street. At points in the interview, Henson is joined by Frank
Oz, Jerry Nelson, Caroll Spinney, Don Sahlin, and Kermit Love. The interview
is interspersed with Muppet skits and clips from multiple Henson productions.
