I didn't realize that at the end of Muppets Christmas Carol, when Gonzo says "and Tiny Tim, who did NOT DIE!" that's an actual quote from the book. (hexbear.net)

Apparently Muppet's Christmas Carrol actually has more direct quotes from the book than most adaptions of the work. Some Dickens scholars have even praised it as being one of the best adaptations.

The way it's written kinda looks like the Hogfather version of death interjecting.
