No, that was Jerry. Remember, Jerry DID perform in the Harvey Korman episode- he was Thog, Floyd, the Whatnot in the panel sketch, T.R. the Rooster, Crazy Harry, and Robin. Harvey himself taped his material in between Ruth Buzzi and Rita Moreno, and the show was finished up after the Charles...
-Sexy Muppet: Eren
-the cow: Dave (just mooing sounds)
-Behemoth: voice of Richard Hunt (like in "Some Enchanted Evening")
-the Koozbanian Snurb/"sunshine" alien: Jerry
-Sclrap Flyapp/Hugga Wugga: Frank
Right.
Boy, it's been so long since I've even THOUGHT about this outline. I'll...
None of the women in "Dancing Queen" have any solo lines. They all pretty much sing together.
Yes.
Jerry and John played the houses on the left, Frank and Eren played the ones on the right.
George & Mildred and Zoot & Janice I'd of course use. I like the Rover Joe & Catgut idea...
-the Geri & the Atrics guitar player: Kathy Mullen
-Jimmy & Fred the Musical Chairs: they don't talk
-the tiger: Brian Muehl
-the Koozebanian Phlorph: Dave
-the penguins: various
-the rats: various
-the chickens: various
-Old Skyball Paint: Dave
-the whatnots in the UK Spot: Jerry...
-the pigs: all the performers, Steve would be the lead singer pig, Dave is the Chief Pig
-the totem pole: Jerry
-the dancing scalps: they're just scalps, they don't talk, they don't have voices either
-the two male whatnots that sing "Evil Ways": Jerry and Richard
-the "At the Dance"...
Mildred in the panel is Frank, of course. The other two characters, Bunsen and Scooter, are performed by Dave and Richard, so that leaves Frank free to play Mildred. And Muppy was nearly always Dave Goelz, at least whenever he was named off.
Lead rats- Jerry and Richard
Lenny- Jim (his...
Hortense- Louise
Goat- Steve
Big Mama- Louise
Dr. Frush- Frank (just a scream)
Pig backup singers- Louise, Steve, Jerry
Opening number animals- don't know, haven't decided; Steve would probably play the penguin, the rest don't have solos.
The remaining characters, whatnots and such...
Jerry as Quongo (he does a good gorilla), Steve as Joey Sprout is fine, Jim, Richard, and Jerry for the others (same performers as the Gills Brothers, basically). Dave as the baseball player. Never decided for the opening number, since I only ever heard the song in my head sung by The Mamas &...
That thought has occurred to me, but considering they only used Winny in one episode, I always kind of disregard it. I mean, she was even less of a regular than Gladys. And anyway, although I do specify the timeline, part of the joy of fanfics is breaking the real-life rules (at least the ones...
Yea, that's it. He wasn't named until later. The girl in the jug-band is also named Lou, performed by and apparently modeled after Louise Gold (down to the thick red hair).

Whoever performed the chorus girls/backup singers in the Helen Reddy episode, that's who performs them here and in the Johnny Rivers outline.
David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
Jerry and Richard perform the "Evil Ways" guys. The sorceress (who doesn't say anything, mind you) would probably be performed by Frank.
The women in the closing number don't talk, save for Mary Louise and Wanda, both of whom scream, both of whom would be voiced by Louise.
Jug-band is...
Hmm, how about Rollin Krewson as Mary Louise? (See the Sandy Duncan episode.)
Opening # features all of the Electric Mayhem, but Dr. Teeth does all the vocals.

In response to the last part, about "At the Dance"- good suggestions. I hadn't thought about the "Time in a Bottle" singer but it works since I set the episode around that same time. Let's have the British Chap dancing with Granny the Gouger and telling the "I forgot" joke, the old scientist...
Ack! You caught my slip-up! I had temporarily forgotten about that.
Or to put it another way, he's performed by the same puppeteer who performed him in Sandy Duncan's closing number, "Try to Remember". :D
David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
I'll start with the ones I know right off the bat. Droop is Jerry Nelson, the pig couple are performed by Richard Hunt (they usually were, at least at that time in the season), the Scoffs are John Lovelady and Eren Ozker, and the Banana is John Lovelady. Mildred is performed by Dave Goelz in...
Well, most of the characters in your list don't speak, or in the case of the pigs, they all do, sing that is, in unison. Jerry and Richard would voice the Muppaphones. I hadn't thought about the horse situation, I may have to get back to you on that. And when I said live turkey, I meant the...
Don't know offhand. I have no plans currently to expand it into a script but it's not impossible that I will.
