The Muppets' Beauty and the Beast

The Muppets' take on a tale as old as time. A spoiled prince was arranged to marry the evil witch, Desdemona, but she was so ugly the prince refused to marry her. In anger Desdemona placed a curse on the castle transforming the prince into a hideous beast and his castle staff into frogs, pigs, rats, chickens, and other various animals. The only way the spell can be broken is if the beast finds someone to love him despite his appearance. Years later an old man stumbles upon the beast's castle and picks one of his roses as a gift for his daughter, Belle. The beast outraged by this demands the old man's daughter in exchange for his life. After the old man returns home and explains the situation to Belle she agrees to stay with the beast to save her father's life. The beast's servants; Kermit, Miss Piggy, Gonzo, Fozzie and the rest of the Muppets try to get Belle and the beast to fall in love so the spell will be broken. The two start off hating each other, but eventually begin to warm up to each other. When Desdemona learns of this she tries to prevent Belle from breaking her spell.
