It's time for another Greatest Hiatus, and this time we take a one-week break from Farscape to discuss another sci-fi production from the Henson Studios:
"Muppets From Space"!
With enormous enthusiasm and unsinkable optimism, daredevil Gonzo steps into his first starring role in "Muppets From Space," a hilarious extraterrestrial adventure about the search for Gonzo's past. On a quest with buddy Rizzo to find his real family, Gonzo discovers that his long-lost relatives are actually aliens from a distant planet.
