It's "Thankful Time" with Abby.

It says in the Jerry Nelson page at Muppet Wiki.

Many of us had suspected the Muppets would make a "surprise" appearance, but after reading that line, it makes me wonder if you somehow knew in advance.

It looked like he was looking at a script. Could another Muppet appearance be made tonight (well, I'd expect them in the closing).

Well, the Muppets appeared in the monologue. It was great. I suspected their appearance would be in the monologue, like Cookie Monster's appearance last year.

It seems it like until the past decade it had been rare for Muppet performers other than Jim and Frank to be interviewed as themselves (and a great deal of those interviews in the past decade were on Muppet Central, The MuppetCast, Tough Pigs, The Muppet Mindset, and other websites). Though most...

Was I quoted in your post by accident? Because Camilla definatley wasn't a cameo.

Really? I never noticed that before.

I dreamt that I was at a premier party for "The Muppets". I got to get my picture taken with Steve Whitmire, Kermit, Rizzo, and Lips. They had photos of Muppets and performers for sale (and for some reason they also had pictures of people I know). And I got to test Jason Segel's knowledge of the...

Here's one regarding The Jimmy Dean Show: http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2011/11/18/11181965/ I was a little surprised. So Rowlf was originally intended to just be a guest star in the second episode (which featured another performance by Jim and Frank, outside of Rowlf). I read that the...

There's an official video preview featuring samples from almost all the songs (Paul Simon and Starship are not included). Listening to these samples, most of them sound different from how I expected (yeah, for the most part I didn't have any lyrics to look at). Pictures in my Head sounds the...

Was Miss Piggy's "Kermit, we need you!" line/scene in the film?

I often think about the credits to various production, which characters are listed among their performers and which ones are not. And sometimes certain choices seem weird. For example, in The Muppet Movie, The Swedish Chef isn't listed in the credit. He only got two lines in the movie, but so...

This gets me thinking, Jim Henson never got a "created by" credit. Maybe he didn't feel the need for such a credit. Though Charles Schultz usually got a "created by" credit in the Peanuts specials (I know, they're different people, I'm comparing apples and oranges....). Though quite a few...

If Frank Oz did accept the role of Big Bird when offered, I wonder how many character's he'd have performed by now (or if he'd currently be a director). Would he have been limited to maybe two or three roles (it was already decided he'd perform Bert before Big Bird was created, but did Jim have...

That's weird, considering her name is widely sourced. I find it weird when a major character in a movie has a proper name that's never mentioned on-screen. I used to wonder what the point of giving characters non-descriptive names was if they weren't going to be mentioned (first I realised it's...

I know that Muppet Christmas Carol was the only one to have narrarators, but I thought putting a narrarator in a Muppet movie would be an interesting twist. Though I wasn't thinking in terms of how Gonzo and Rizzo were used in MCC, more along the lines of Sam's narraration of Muppet Snow White...

The only productions I've seen that list Dave Goelz as Zoot are ones where he gets some dialogue. He didn't talk much in The Muppet Movie or Muppets Take Manhattan, but he did say something, and was credited in those (I do not yet know if he gets any dialogue in this movie).

I thought about that a little, but figured they'd rather heckle the story. Though maybe it would be interesting to see the kind of Muppet movie Statler and Waldorf would want to see made (though the idea sounds better as a comic book story).

There were hardly any pizza jokes or references in The Next Mutations series. I remember in one of the first episodes, Michelangelo asks if they want to get a pizza, and they (in annoyance) tell him to grow up. And I've read that pizza wasn't a big part of the original comics, just major in the...
