"The Muppets Valentine Show" was a special on ABC back in 1974. Apparently, it was also a pilot for a proposed series that never was to be but evolved into "The Muppet Show" a few years later.
The theme of the show is love and all sorts of assorted Muppets, many of which you'd never see again, discuss what love is. The special guest is Mia Farrow and she and the show are a bit on the schmaltzy side compared to the later edgier Muppets. Now I am NOT saying it's bad...but sometimes mushy moments seem more the style of the program than humor and laughs. Overall, very interesting but not exactly what you'd later come to love from Jim Henson and his puppeteers.
