Scooter is much more intelligent than Radar, who according to Trapper "has the IQ of a houseplant". Scooter is more clever and, on occasion, more devious, assisting Miss Piggy in her schemes either for cash or to avoid bodily harm. I don't see any similarities other than their station and they...
Enough already!
Hot Lips didn't know karate. Piggy wasn't an adulterer. The more you get to know both characters, the less a "direct copy" it will become.

Re: Miss Piggy and Loretta Swit
maynard-
In the Muppet Show with Loretta Swit, Miss Piggy gets fired by Kermit for planting items about them in gossip magazines. Kermit has Loretta take Piggy's place in Vet's Hospital and Pigs in Space. During Pigs in Space of course the whole thing is...
I watched the Weezer video recently and couldn't place a few voices- Fozzie and Statler, possibly Miss Piggy.
Fozzie was definitely someone else- John Kennedy?
Piggy might have been someone else- Eric Jacobson?
Statler didn't sound like Jerry Nelson; he sounded more like Richard Hunt...
I wasn't yelling. You can tell, no exclamation marks. I just wanted to emphasize the one word. Sorry about that; should've just used italics.

Janice was NAMED after Janis Joplin, not singularly based off of her. I think they took elements from a few singers to make Janice. I really don't see how she could be based off of Janis Joplin anyhow- Joplin was a Texan, and Janice is a California surfer girl. Plus Janice's lips were taken...
another is to make them part of a pack-in pack in an actual blister in one of the upcoming Series
I like that idea. Tell me though, what else would you think of putting in the pack-in pack?
I like the idea of 'booster packs' as it were because they allow you to increase the scale of the...
Well, I just put the finishing touches on it, and here it is:
SPECIAL GUEST STAR: SAMMY DAVIS JR.
STYLE: fifth season
COLD OPENING: Pops is watching the baseball game. Sammy walks in. Pops tells Sammy how glad, how pleased, how thrilled he is to see him. Now he has someone to keep an...
Are you saying that all the Muppets are in fact based on other people or characters, or is this a 'just-for-fun juxtaposition'? If the former, I hate to come right out and say it, but you'd be dead wrong. The only Muppet that was based outright on somebody else was Dr. Teeth, who was as you...
Another question-
For the piano playing sketch, is it Rowlf instead of Kermit or Rowlf AND Kermit? If it were me I'd just as soon not use Rowlf. I mean, he's the most down-to-earth of the Muppets, even ahead of Kermit! He's never been eaten (he's a bit big to be eaten too), even when...
You may have to explain some of this to me. The Kermit Plays Piano skit, for example. I know a few details but not how the whole sketch goes or how you would substitute the characters in there. Got confused when you mentioned Wayne teaching Scooter to improvise, seeing as you had just...
If anyone can help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Take a look at this item:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=906993783&rd=1
It's listed as brand new, which means it must be something that is currently made and sold, right? So does anyone know if this is something...
Great music choices! I can practically hear Mel belting out those tunes. Like the opening, and the S & W comments too!
Also, I like how the references and inside jokes are just that- inside jokes. Not being familiar with Mel Brooks won't detract from the enjoyment of this episode.
All...
Ah now I understand...the figure is in the purple tux cut more like a suit coat, no tails or raised waistcoat looking thing...satin lapels, satin tie and pocket trim, carnation in breast pocket.
Sounds like the purple suit to me. Best way to tell is the color of the reference pics- is it...
There's always a chance...Series 4 actually showed up in my office today, all painted. I was a little shocked at the purpleness of the PIS outfits based on the PMS specs. Anybody have any thoughts on this? Anybody have any thoughts of what their pants and boots look like?
