Hi DancingQueen! Nice to meet you.
There are many, many people here who say that the "Mary had a bicycle" skit was one of my best skits of all time from SS. That one in particular was one of my favorites growing up, and it still is. Enjoy your stay at the forum. Just don't bang your head on...
How could we forget Statler and Waldorf's annoyed faces? You know, after one gets insulted or smacked in the face. Those are HILARIOUS! But my all time favorite from S&W is the "evil eye" bit, when Waldorf makes his left eye protrude and Statler's face contorts in shock. Jim & Richard really...
10 pieces of hilarious artwork from our good friend Chris Smigliano:
Gonzo and friends: http://www.toughpigs.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/indignity.jpg
Beaker as the Grim Reaper (apparently a Muppet special reference, too): http://www.toughpigs.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/Death.jpg...
If you look closely, you can see Bruno the Trashman in the first picture, and Ernie and Bert in the window of 123 in the second picture. (Well, I think it's E&B, anyway. I could be wrong.)
;): Boy, do I feel ashamed.
: Me too.
:sympathy:: I'm back in.
:confused:: You can count on me!
:eek:: Mee mee mo moop.
:sing:: Hey, man, I was only joking. Yeah, it'll be a lot of fun to go out there and risk our lives!
:D: One for all and all for one!
:attitude:: At times like this, I am...
The birds are all in nightclub-style clothing, like what Frank Sinatra would wear. Ohboy Bird and Righton Bird are the leads, played by Jerry and Richard. Frank plays the Youknow Bird, Jim plays the Whatdoyousay Bird, Dave plays the Forcryingoutloud Bird, and Louise plays the Ohreally Bird...
I wonder who will play Constantine, the villainous Kermit look-alike (Peter Linz or David Rudman, perhaps)? Hope he gets a good karate chop from Miss P.
By the end, Bo does feel better because he has such good friends. It's true that he can't do his work, but inside, he feels better. :D
A lot of these balcony dialogues are slightly altered versions of actual MS scenes. I remember that there was an early S&W gag (maybe from season 1 or 2)...
I just came across these as well:
Anne Murray sings and the EM (sans Animal) back her up.
and I REALLY LOVE Zoot's gritty sax solo in the Chopin number.
:D: All right! Honk it! Honk it! (I think that's what Dr. Teeth says to Zoot.)
Just putting this out there: I wonder how many Muppeteers were impressed by a fan's knowledge of their Muppet characters. Would Frank be floored if a fan mentioned Marvin Suggs or George the Janitor? Would Jerry have been impressed if someone mentioned Uncle Deadly or Louis Kazagger?
I never...
I'd like an autograph from either Frank Oz or Caroll Spinney because they are the ones carrying on the SS puppeteer legacy. If I got Frank's autograph, it would be awesome if he could sign as Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Sam, and Animal, too. If I got Caroll's autograph, I hope he'd add Big Bird and...
