IN THEIR OWN WORDS: JIM HENSON
PBS, 8:00 p.m. ET
SEASON FINALE: The season ender to this nonfiction biography series is devoted to Jim Henson, creator of The Muppets – and it’s perfect timing, because a new ABC series, The Muppets, premieres later this month. For a full review, see Tom Brinkmoeller’s Raised on MTM. And for a wonderful history of Henson's most famous creation, Kermit the Frog, see Noel Holston's The Grassy Noel. Check local listings.
