"Come to the Party" features Donna Erickson planning a neighborhood pizza party in her community where Kermit the Frog is vacationing. They divide up tasks with Kermit contacting his friends to entertain at the party and Donna planning and demonstrating backyard activities in which her guests, both children and adults, will participate. The episode will also include a special musical performance by a featured Muppet.
