It also has the distinction of being the last Henson-related film featuring Frank Oz before he retired his characters to successor Eric Jacobson, and the Muppets' last independently-released feature film before they were bought by Disney in 2004 (though ''Film/KermitsSwampYears'' & ''Film/ItsAVeryMerryMuppetChristmasMovie'' arrived on home video & Creator/{{NBC}} respectively in 2002).

In this film, the Muppets are living communally in an old house ([[NegativeContinuity apparently it's their vacation home]]), with Piggy's motivation to become a successful TV reporter being the only clear source of their income. Gonzo feels lonely, because there's no one like him; he has friends, but no family, and everyone else does. Feeling despondent, he is contacted through his breakfast cereal (no, really) and told to watch the sky. Eventually, he is convinced that he is actually an alien that somehow wound up on Earth; elated at the thought that there may be more of his kind in space, he tries to communicate with the other beings, while being thought of as crazy by his friends. Between being duped into building a Jacuzzi for the aliens, being captured and interrogated by a [[TheMenInBlack anonymous government agency]] headed by Creator/JeffreyTambor, and nearly being dissected by a (Muppet) MadScientist, it takes a while before Gonzo finally gets to meet his space-brethren.

** It did get a brief MythologyGag in ''Film/TheMuppets'', though. In that movie, when Gonzo is preparing to blow up the plumbing factory that he owns so that he can rejoin the cast of ''Series/TheMuppetShow'', he addresses the crowd of baffled onlookers as "People of Earth!", likely as a nod to his alien heritage.
