Yes, that was the 'trick' to At the Dance, usually the couples were being performed by one puppeteer. That's how they danced so smoothly.
Sometimes a voice would be dubbed, but lots of times you can hear that both characters are voiced by the same performer.

I posed this very question to someone at Palisades back in the day... I don't think it was Ken Lilly, it might've been Mike Horn? Anyway, I was wondering what the scale was, so I could track down a Luke Skywalker of the correct height for the Mark Hamill episode.
Surprisingly, the answer was...
Not Muppets, but still puppets...

My only spare Janice is slated for Vet's Hospital, along with Dr. Bob and Nurse Piggy, if I can ever solve a material problem for their scrubs.
Here's another holiday display of mine, with a backdrop printed from modified screen-grabs...
Merry Christmas!

The Saltine is a work-in-progress commission piece. I am so pleased by how she's turning out, I plan to someday do...
I just read about this in the ToughPigs forums and thought it was endearing. Searched here but didn't see an existing thread, and am not entirely sure where it should be categorized. Mods, feel free to move or combine...
So a guy named Sid Ceaser (really) wanted to finally make it official...
By the way, for some odd reason, I couldn't get the Muppets on Puppets documentary to rip. Everything else on that disc would rip just fine, but that one vital element eluded me for a day or so.
In the end, I went for a high-tech incarnation of a low-tech approach. I played the DVD on my...
By the way, I had a gut feeling when I was flipping that clip that it was NOT rotated 180 degrees, that it had only been mirrored vertically. I tried it both ways, but the 180 one just didn't seem right.
The only thing I really was able to check though was an asymmetrical crooked tooth in the...
Grrrr... I have this thing totally edited, but every time I try to upload it to YouTube, it fails at either 98% processed or occasionally at 100%.
Really frustrating.

I got through all of the Season One guides and part of Season Two (inspiring another edit I'd like to do someday with all the Brian Henson intros) before it occurred to me to just email D.W. McKim and ask!
Got a prompt response: it's from the Chris Langham episode. Which I fortunately have on...
I didn't realize there were more BH introductory spots than the ones included on my Time-Life DVD's.
Does anyone know a source for these?

GENERIC INTRO: MOCK SWEDISH (Connie Stevens, Ethel Merman, Dizzy Gillespie)
GENERIC INTRO: SEX AND VIOLENCE (Ruth Buzzi, Kaye Ballard)...
I need to dig out the Henson's Place DVD and watch it again. I forgot about that one.
Okay, I still can't dig up any info on the Statler/Waldorf thing I was thinking of... now I'm wondering if it was another character. Maybe Kermit said it... but I swear *someone* made a comment about long...
OKay, my video is now almost ten minutes long and I'm very proud of some of the things I've cobbled together... but I've got a bad jump cut happening backstage and I need a cutaway. Once I splice this in, I can post it and let everyone see it.
Here's the clip I'm looking for... it's Statler...
With regards to the layout of the theatre, here are some thoughts based on various theatres where I've been fortunate enough to tread the boards...
The largest theatre I've ever spent time in is Norton Auditorium at the University of North Alabama, in a town called Florence. I often think of...
If anyone wants to know what they looked like right side up when it was being filmed, I just uploaded this to YouTube...

(aka Dearth)
Now then...
I need someone to tell me an episode of the Muppet Show, preferably Season 2 or up, where you see the theatre's audience laughing. Applauding would work ok, too, but a big belly laugh would work best.
I also want to say there are times with some sort of interactive singing going...
