 @420f26f4 @4eb58cf9 @b2e37e2e I involuntarily imagined that next-to-last one in Gonzo's voice 😂 

Come to think of it... even though #TheMuppetChristmasCarol doesn't exactly have an opening line, the first few sentences of actual narration are a strong start:
(Gonzo) "Hello! Welcome to The Muppet Christmas Carol! I am here to tell the story."
(Rizzo) "And I am here for the food."

I must be tired, because when you said Gonzo I took that as Dr. Gonzo from Fear and Loathing and got really confused for a second. 😂
