Twiddlebug
Wow, thanks for answering my questions! Quick supplemental:
Re: guest stars- were there any stars you worked with on the movies who wanted to do the show that you know of? The stars who cameoed in the movies but weren't on the show were the following (hope I can remember the...
All the first season monsters barring Behemoth and all the full-bodied monsters were in "Comedy Tonight" (Gorgon Heap was in it too). Svengali (from "You Do Something to Me"), Mary Louise (the little girl Muppet), a clown, and several Whatnots were in it too.
"Wilkommen"- I'll do this by...
Gene Kelly was the last one taped. Roger Moore's was the eigth one taped in the season.
Also in the Gene Kelly episode, the crew of Pigs in Space reached the End of the Universe, at which point they are given the meaning and purpose of life (which they miss in favor of dinner- swill...
Question for Twiddlebug
Twiddlebug-
I was wondering, do you mind if we ask you questions here? Would it be all right if one of us started a threat to chew the fat with ya? I have a couple of questions I was wondering if you could answer:
1) Who are some stars who you wished could've...
#50 Rita Coolidge & Kris Kristofferson: appears in the cold opening and (briefly) in the closing number
#51 Leo Sayer: appears (with Behemoth) in the cold opening
#56 Loretta Lynn: appears in the special opening credits
He might be in the closing number of the Linda Lavin episode, but...
I was about to do it again, too.:)
Top five guest stars: what's the criteria? How they worked with the Muppets, what they did on the show, performance, what? Or just our favorites?
I'll get back to you with my response.
Hey Emerald, where'd you get the picture in your avatar? What's...
Darn it all! I have a problem, Ken
Ken, I've got a problem.
I received my EM stage playset today, and when I opened it I discovered that one of the two little poles on the front of the drum set with two swiveling drums apiece was broken off. Now pressure breaks like that of thin pieces...
Wow, Count. You got everybody.
I didn't realize that the call for ideas was for ideas we wanted, just what we thought Palisades would realistically do, with some of our personal faves thrown in for good measure. Had I known, I'd have slipped in the Season One characters, esp. Wayne & Wanda...
It's often been suggested that Uncle Deadly should come with a pipe organ, and I suggested a skull. And of course he'll have his cape.
David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
I just updated the outline. Here it is with some minor additions:
SPECIAL GUEST STAR: PAUL LYNDE
STYLE: EARLY/MID SECOND SEASON (circa Teresa Brewer episode)
COLD OPENING: Big Mama is in Paul’s dressing room.
Paul: “Scooter, I have a bit of a problem. This humongous dog followed me...
Thanks for all that, but I'm sorry to say that I just ordered one today from the Palisades website. I hadn't heard from you in a while, so I went ahead and ordered one. Sorry for all the trouble.
David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
I'm sure he probably can, since Thog's eyes also move (assuming that's what you're referring to).
I think it's by remote control. If not, it's some sort of internal mechanism. But I think it's remote control.
Btw, I'm pretty sure Steve only performed Thog in the Loretta Swit ep, as per...
