I hadn't thought of that. Actually, the way it played out in my head, no. Make it the same as the Bruce Forsyth episode's "At the Dance", not the two episodes that followed.
Or it could leave another performer playing Floyd just on guitar, not on vocals. Truthfully, what you're saying did...
Ah! See, I never knew that, never saw the episode. That also explains how Red & Mokey were able to find a great cave that was unoccupied- they have a housing surplus rather than a shortage (which is seemingly what most places have). It also kinda answers the question about where Red kept her...
I'm going to add "All Work and All Play"- first Doozer episode and IMO the best Doozer episode. Introduces a new character and does it well, with humor and good writing that ties things together well in the end, opening up a future that we are going to see unfold for young Cotterpin. I...
I was thinking about this in regard to the single-disc releases, but which episodes of FR do you consider to be series classics, over and above other episodes? I think the first episode and the final trilogy would be considered classic FR, but what others do you consider classic?

I like the UK Spot, and the Sam speech (reminds me of the Sam sketch on the Jaye P. Morgan episode, come to think of it), although in the case of the latter, do you really think you could get away with having the flag catch on fire on TV, even by accident? After all, it is scripted, so the...
I must've missed the UK Spot on first reading- Favog charging a limo and Scred digging right through the theatre box and falling through- priceless!
Heh, still can't beat girls' bathroom and the air vents- that was just too funny!

Judd Hirsch is one of my favorites. It's kind of a shame that no one from "Taxi" ever did TMS. If anyone of them had, IMO it would've been Carol Kane, who appeared in "The Muppet Movie" (which to me indicates that yes, she liked the Muppets and who knows, maybe she was on the list to guest...
Any more backstage stuff going on during this'un? One other question, how does umbrella dueling work? Is it people dueling with umbrellas or living umbrellas dueling each other?

My favorite parts were the Newsflash, the closing comment, the S&W comment after the Johnny Fiama number, and Nurse Piggy's "next of kin" interjection- very in keeping with TMS.

Do you really think they could get away with the line "mucking fuppets"? Funny thing about ol' Belush- so many things to like about his talent, so many things to hate about the man, and his hatred of the Muppets (and comediennes, for that matter) tops the list. I wonder if he would've liked...
Wow, trippy. Figures Gonzo would like Andy, and I like the use of Tony Clifton and the hair dye running gag.
I had an idea for an Andy Kaufman outline, tho I doubt I'll ever do it. I guess no one will mind me telling what my idea was. Basically, it would have a very Andy Kaufman type of...
The characters evolved over the years and different versions of the same sketch, although I agree that the final versions of Hugga Wugga and especially the green alien are a little bit Seussical.
Anyone else notice in the backstage scene afterward that George the Janitor is walking offstage...
And in the goodnights of the Peter Ustinov episode.
Really? Wowzers, I never noticed that! Did you see the Paul Williams Muppet in the goodnights of that episode? That went by me for years and countless viewings before I noticed!
And there was a funny bit with him in "At the Dance" on...
The episode I mentioned was the one in which they got that very cave. I meant where did they live prior to this episode?
I kinda agree with the Great Hall assessment. Of course, Red has a lot of stuff, so if she didn't have a place of her own, I wonder where she kept it?
David "Gorgon...
Maybe whoever wants to know the answer to the topic question could email the fanmail dept. at Henson.com. I think it's still fanmail@henson.com but I haven't used it in a while.
Not only that, but Don Gillis was the musical director, and Gillis Fraggle was the Fraggle music director...
Many thanks, and many happy returns.
I must admit tho, I am starting to get a little 'post happy' now that I'm getting so close to 1000.

Well, mainly I want to make a new avatar, maybe some icons (I have made over 500 TMS icons thus far), and I'd just like to have some pics from that sketch since there aren't any online and I don't have the capability to make them myself. And incidentally, the only other time I made a thread...
