I've had both of these in my outline ideas file for a while. "Travelin' Band" sung by the Electric Mayhem in a hotel room, and "Build Me Up Buttercup" sung by a Whatnot at home, waiting for his girl to show up while seemingly everyone and their grandma shows up in the meantime. At the end of...

Is this the same as the one by Three Dog Night? 'Cause if so, I always envisioned that one sung by a male guest star at a weird house party... at the house of Gonzo the Great! In attendance are the usual plethora of chickens, Crazy Harry, Lew Zealand, Uncle Deadly, Koozebanians, monsters...

No one has mentioned Chris Langham's "Hawaiian Cowboy"? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I never did get around to sending my letter. I should make a new note. Did the fan tribute package ever happen? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I wish I had used speedy shipping from Amazon. I tracked my package and it arrived in Michigan on Thursday, I think it even left the Allen Park facility on Thursday, which would mean that it would've arrived at the post office Friday at the latest... and it's STILL not here. It's like they're...

Oops, I can see someone already mentioned it. My bad. TMS did have a guest host once: Phyllis George, when the Muppets presented The Fred Awards and Kermit took the night off from his hosting duties (remaining backstage for the bulk of the proceedings), leaving Phyllis in charge. David...

Need some help identifying some music. There's a neat little instrumental in the Muppet Show episode with guest stars Mummenschanz; it's the one in their first sketch, the Notepad Faces. Anyone have any idea if this piece has a name, and if so, how someone can find a recording? I've always...

Who would I want to see host a new Muppet Show? Why, Kermit of course! The term 'guest host' is a HUGE pet peeve of mine, since the original Muppet Show had guest stars while Kermit was the host. Other than "Saturday Night Live", does any other show specifically have guest hosts? As far...

My original question was combined with another question, which sort of altered its meaning. I'll attempt to rephrase. The original question was: To restate, the Muppet writing style has changed over time, from the golden era before Henson's death, through the years that followed. Has...

Small addition: in the cold opening, when Johnny says "Every time I think I've hit rock-bottom, somebody throws me a shovel, one of the workmen should throw his shovel onto Johnny's dressing table. CAN'T BELIEVE I didn't make the connection before. And I just happened to use that phrase, too...

Here and there I've been doing a bit of work expanding the Jose Feliciano outline into a script. Also, since the Johnny Rivers episode has full backstage scenes, it wouldn't take much to turn that one into a script (however some of those backstage scenes need to be trimmed/re-written, as toward...

:shrug: I know little to nothing of his work or his style, and I have 20-odd outlines already in the works. And I haven't posted a new outline in several months. Not sure when I'll finish another one. I think I know what the next one will be, I haven't told many people about it, but I...

US, and not sure about the second question. I know that part of the order consisted of Helen Reddy, Roy Clark, Jean Stapleton, James Coco, another block was Raquel Welch and Gilda Radner, another block was Loretta Lynn followed by Alice Cooper. This is the order they were shown in syndicated...

Does anyone have a reference with the Season 3 broadcast order on it? Specifically wanting to know the running order of approx. the first half. Much appreciated. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Well, if your imagination's up and running, check out: this and this. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Only thing I can think of is if they did the Flip Wilson Show together; I know Kermit appeared on-screen with another of Flip's recurring guests, Dom DeLuise. Don't think Tim ever appeared alongside the Muppets though. If it's any consolation, and if you have the imagination, then hopefully...

I've either written or am in the process of writing outlines for 14 of those names mentioned. Funny, I'd wager most people don't know that Peter Boyle could sing. Ditto Chevy Chase, who sang back-up for Carly Simon when she appeared on SNL. Surprised no one mentioned Carly Simon, Carol...

Me too: take a look. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I remember that. That's partially how I came up with the idea to write this outline. I think she also guest-starred on "The Carol Burnett Show" and I remember her playing a witch in an "H.R. Pufnstuf" special. Like I said, if she had lived longer, I think she would've been on TMS. Seems like...
