EDIT: Oh didn't see it had already been posted.

Mac too? Aw, he was a heck of man.

I also loved her signature song, "I Am Woman",

Then I wonder why Miss Piggy did that one with Racquel Welsh instead, unless you're talking about a different "I am Woman" song.

Yeah, both of them are different songs- the one with Raquel Welch is called "I'm a Woman".

Oh, okay. I see one contraction makes a difference there.

Man, so many TMS guest stars have passed away in recent days. RIP to Helen and Mac. I mean it's understandable, the show came out 40+ years ago and people are going to age but it's still extremely sad to hear that a new one is gone.

It's to be expected but it is still jarring. I was young when The Muppet Show first aired, so I have known these celebrities for 40+ years. I have grown accustomed to learning artists from my youth have passed away. For the younger posters today I can see how it can be upsetting in a different way. They may have just been introduced to some of these performers and then they are gone.

The really tragic millestone is going to be when the first of whichever of the five seasons it happens with, every guest is gone. Furthermore on the law of averages, when that happens the numbers left in the remaining seasons won't be all that very high for that matter.

She's another whom I thought had died long ago, but it's nice to know she had a very, very respectably long life and career.
