We'll also need to include a Harvey Kneeslapper skit (maybe the B one, or the "picture of U" one, especially if The U Lecture doesn't exist as a real televised skit).And maybe instead of including X Marks the Spot, we could include Mystery Letter. That way, Sherlock Hemlock would still be...
I have been thinking about starting a thread like this for a long time. i have thought about this since I heard that Columbia was releasing the time-life DVDs and releasing an additional 5 volumes. I guess it's too late now, but this is what I would have included:
Volume 16: Linda lavin...
Here are a few more guest-specific introductions:
"Hi, I'm Brian Henson. This episode of The Muppet Show guest stars Leena Horne. (insert clip from closing number here) In this episode, Leena Horne sang the classic Sesame Street song "Sing". She actually made a few appearances on Sesame...
I've read the introduction about the minor characters, and think it's too short and could have included more characters. Maybe there could have been more introductions involving minor muppets (hey, I promoted myself!).
Here is some thinking I've had:
minor character introductons:
#2...
Yes, her first appearance was in the Don Knotts episode, but the Julie Andrews episode was the first time that she was a full-body character, rather than a puppet.
Yes, I realized my mistake about an hour after posting, but by then I was at work and couldn't acknowledge my mistake. Either shorten the line to exclude it altogether, or change the line to something to the effect of "...Also in this episode, Kermit and Fozzie perform a classic comedey routine...
Here are a few more phony transcripts. I believe that the episodes with Rita Moreno and Paul Williams had episode-specific introductions.
"Hi, I'm Brian henson. This episode of The Muppet Show features Ruth Buzzi. (insert clip from the talk spot) She was really enjoyable to work with, and...
Here is my transcript for a Brian henson intro for the Connie Stevens episode.
"Hi, I'm Brian Henson. This episode of The Muppet Show features Connie Stevens. (insert clip from Teenager in Love) In this episode, Connie Stevens did a song and dance number with a trio of monsters known as The...
Yeah, that video taught kids to count up to 20, but there weren't any segments about the numbers 11-19, and there were a lot of repeated umber segments. The numbers 2, 3, 4, and 20 each got represented twice (in a way, you could say that 7 and 10 got represented twice, because of the skit where...
While not exactly the same thing, Brooke Shields referred to it as The Muffin Show (or was it Muffet?) at least twice in her episode. In Gilda Radner's episode, when she played Emily Letilla in the cold opening, he confused it with The Muffet Show, but again, she didn't actually say The Muppet Show.
You know, even though I am the one who pulled the joke, I keep getting excited thinking about these, and then get dissapointed myself. I keep thinking of additonal fake announcements for more volumes, imagining what I'd like to see, and get disapointed. I keep considering writing a series of...
Brian Henson could have made special intros for Juliet Powse, Connie Stevens, and Linda Ronstadt, in addition to those you mentioned.
I'll make a mock-introduction for the Juliet Prowse episode now:
"Hi, I'm Brian Henson. This episode of The Muppet Show guest stars Juliet Prowse. (insert...
Well, I would want some special edition DVDs released, with an assortment of clips shown without linking material. I have a few different ideas on how I'd want them released. One would be similar to the Looney Tunes Golden Collection. I actually started a thread like that in the Sesame...
Yes, Cher was originally booked as a season 5 guest star, which is one of the reasons why I had her outline be part of season 5. The other reason is because of my Sonny Bono outline being from the first season, trying to make it sort of a bookend (though I guess you could say that this outline...
This outline takes place in the fifht season.
Cold Opening/ Lobby
Pops asks Cher who she is. Cher is offended that he doens't know who see is. Pops then realizes who she is: Lucille Ball!
Introduction
Kermit says that he is proud to have Cher as tonights guest. Miss Piggy hears this...
This outline is from the first season.
Introduction
Kermit announces that Sonny Bono is tonights guest star, but first, he has to introduce Gonzo eating a hoola hoop.
Opening Act
Gonzo eats a hoola hoop. The audience boo's him.
Balcony
Statler: Why didn't they just have an...
I probably do. I think that the song I'm thinking of was performed by th Beatles, but I could be wrong (I've heard songs fro other groups that sound like Beatles songs. For example, the Simon and Garfunkle song Mrs. Robinson sounds like a Beatles song to me, and I didn't know untill I put it in...
