Last night, I had a dream about the Mad Painter. It was the sketch where he uses blue icing to make a 6 on a cake. But in my dream, he had to enter a highly guarded mansion to get to the cake. I think he got in by stealing someone's identification paper when no one was looking, then showing it...
I dreamed that someone was working a Fozzie Muppet in a produce aisle of a supermarket. He looked like the version from the first season of the Muppet Show. It was crowded, so all I could see of the puppeteer was one arm, but he sounded like Frank Oz. When I spoke to Fozzie and he answered, he...
Here's a link to a Muppet Wiki page about that sketch. What was Kermit thinking of, though, trying that exercise? As he's reminded Grover in the past, frogs don't have noses!

I saw that "Classic Sesame Street" has a thread called "Little Things We've Noticed." Well, how about one for "Classic Muppets"?
Here's one for a starter: the UK bit on the Carol Channing episode of the Muppet Show. Floyd, on guitar, and Beauregard, on harmonica, play "Wave" for some...
I have rather vague memories of a sketch where Kermit watched Grover touching his toes with his nose (or was it touching his nose with his toes?) five times. Kermit then decided to try it, though Grover warned against it. "This is a monster exercise!" But Kermit tried anyway and wound up hurting...
Deena was a monster I didn't care for. She was always insisting that another monster, Pearl, play with her, usually when Pearl was trying to tidy up or make a bed. Granted, Ernie did the same sort of thing to Bert, but at least Bert and Ernie were funny about it. And Deena didn't even have good...
Does anyone remember a piece where Maria and Linda were sewing a quilt? When they held it up, they showed that it had a patchwork Q on it. Then Maria said, "Q, quilt," and Linda taught the signs for Q and "quilt."
This was one of my favorite pieces about the letter Q. I wonder whatever became...
Here's one from the Carol Burnett episode of the Muppet Show. Carol has just learned that there's going to be a dance marathon during the show.
Gonzo [zipping in]: Terrific, another contestant! What number would you like?
Carol: My agent's. I don't believe this.
Here's one from the Charles Aznavour episode. Dr. Bob, Nurse Piggy, and Nurse Janice have just realized that their patient is dead...
Nurse Piggy: Oh, I hope no one hears about this, Dr. Bob!
Dr. Bob: Well, at least he won't say anything.
I just had another Muppet dream. In it, Beauregard was mopping a floor, and I needed to walk across it and go through a door to get outside. I told him that I needed to go outside for just a minute and get something, and could he please leave a path for me? So he left a long stretch of dry floor...
From "The Wizard of Fraggle Rock," here's one of my favorite quotes. The Wizard is doing a trick...
Wizard: You will notice that there is nothing up my sleeve...
Wembley: ...except your arm!
Wizard: Now, you stop that!
:coy:
Last night, I dreamed that Waldorf had stepped out of the theater box and that Miss Piggy was with Statler. In fact, they had their arms around each other and were kissing!
Does anyone remember when Oscar invented a formula that was supposed to turn anyone who drank it into a grouch? Then someone told Oscar, "If you drink that stuff, you'll get grouchier. You'll be a super grouch!" Thrilled with the idea, Oscar drank the potion—but he became super nice! Eventually...
Here's another video (this one's in Spanish) with that Muppet guy giving a lecture. This time, he holds up pictures and asks the viewers to find a square in each one. Of course, Cookie Monster shows up and eats his props yet again...
