Droop is (almost) always performed by Jerry Nelson, and is so here.
The Roman Legion band Whatnots would be played by all the puppeteers, as would the characters in the closing number and the bats and spelunkers in the opening number.
I hadn't decided who performs the Whatnot man in the...
Actually, the female Koozebanian puppet represents a male character in this sketch, voiced by Dave Goelz in his Wrench Doozer voice.
None of these characters talk, save for the "At the Dance" ones.
The Whatnot man and the housewife are performed by Dave Goelz, Gorgon is performed by Jim...
"It Takes Two" is the Marvin Gaye/Tammi Terrell duet. I'll see if I can find you a link to a sound byte.
Cadet Billy and Cadet Dickie are Dave Goelz and Richard Hunt, sort of in their 'kiddie' voices.
Don't forget, TSF, Louise Gold WAS a cast member for most of Season Two and DID do...
You know, I never decided that. But, I suppose so. Truthfully I can never hear the song in my head sung by anyone else than the original lead singer.

As far as I can remember (and I can remember pretty well, I have all 120 episodes), that joke was never used before on TMS.

What I wanna know is when "Sam & Friends" will come to DVD. They gave us Sullivan (yay for the existence of the DVD, boo to the cover art), now let's have Sam & Friends! You know you want it.

Beaver was my second guess, b/c of his buck teeth. That and there's a woodchuck in there, Yancey, who sings "Barbecue", and he looks nothing like Harvey. Also figures that with all the other kinds of animals in there, they couldn't be devoid of beavers.
But at least I was right about...
Quick question- I've can't remember for certain what kind of animals Harvey and Charlie are, though I think their last names are mentioned in the Nickelodeon cut (I just watched the Columbia edit). Anyone remember? I thought Harvey was a woodchuck and Charlie was a Muskrat (perhaps Hettie...
Well, that fox, called 'Harrison Fox' in "Emmet Otter", was in the Bob Hope episode, in the "For What It's Worth" number, so he did exist in late Season Two.
And I just watched "Emmet Otter" and noticed something I hadn't before, something that places the shooting of this special PRIOR to...
I hate to admit it, but TSF got all of these right, except for maybe some extra chickens in the canteen scene- not that I'm condoning the fact of someone cutting me off at the knees by presuming to act as my mouthpiece, but every single time I or anyone else mentions it/complains, TSF never...
Gosh, I never did list where Sweetums appears, did I?
He sticks around UD most of the time. Actually, in the first backstage scene, change Boppity to Sweetums. Sweetums would also be in "At the Dance" and the closing number. Maybe replace the Mutations in the opening # with Sweetums (not...
Well, I wouldn't put too many characters in the prop room for the simple reason that in reality they wouldn't have enough puppeteers. Robin, Bunsen and Beaker would work tho.
Boppity and Gloat throw most characters into the prop room, and they reel Piggy in.
The Muppets do catch their...
First, you gotta send me a list of the heights and weights of everyone in your graduating class ;)
Seriously tho, I'd have a long gray beard by the time I finished such a list.

Someone who explores caves.
Whatnots.
Whatnots and a bird (flying against the wind).
Just Whatnots as bowlers.
You did see that the Electric Mayhem is in this, yes? Besides them, there's some Whatnots, the purple Season Five frackle, and the blue-green Season Five frackle...
My usual round of links to clips of the songs:
“I Can See Clearly Now”
“Three Coins in the Fountain”
“Style”
“Blue Moon”
Lyrics from "The Magic Show" are unpublished on the net as far as I know, but I have them in the liner notes from the CD so with some time I'll have them up...
