(Harvey Kneeslapper is holding a cake in his hands, with a spring attached to the bottom)
Harvey Kneeslapper: (giggling) Oh, hi there! I've got this cake here, see, and there is a spring at the bottom. I am going to take this cake over to them, and pretend that I'm about to trip, drop the...
Frank Ox's response when asked if he'd ever attend a Star Wars convention is interesting. He said he's been asked to appear at them many times, and has turned them down. I wonder if he just meant Star Wars conventions, or if he'd also turned down appearing at Muppet Fest.
I just noticed something in the Rich Little episode. I don't think it's ever been mentioned online before. But in the press sketch, tere is a sign in the background which has Bert auditioning pigeons. The sign is right by the side, half of it blocke dfrom view, but the sign said somethign like...
David: Hey, I've got a great idea.
Gordon: What's that?
David: let's go on a scavengar hunt. Let's all bring back five of something.
All: Oh, yeah!
(everybody leaves)
Sherlock Hemlock: i, Sherlock Hemlock, must find five of something. (walks past five signs) Egad! I've found five...
It's interesting that Frank Oz didn't even know until now that the show has been released on DVD. Does that mean that the Muppet performers no longer get residuals for The Muppet Show? And even if he didn't know about the DVDs, maybe he performed in The Muppets on Muppets, thinking it would be a...
Also, Herbert Birdsfoot doesn't appear in A Muppet Family Christmas. It's much easier to see who all is in the various crowd scenes in that speical than in The Muppet Movie finale. Also, while TMM featured nearly every Henson creation, and while it would be appropriate for The Mupepts: A...
(Oscar is in his trash can)
Oscar: Ugh! This street is celebrating the number five, and for no good reason, too! I hate anniversaries! Nothing good ever comes out of them.
The Mudman: Mud delivery for Oscar the Grouch!
Oscar: Well, it's about time my mud come here!
The Mudman: And due to...
The final scene (well, the last scene before Sweetums jumps through the screen, anyway) features hundreds of Muppets, almost every Muppet in existence at the time, with the main exception of the earliest-created Muppets (the Sam and Friends cast, Wilkins and Wontkins, etc). There are some...
The following fan-fic is a fake script for a fake fifth anniversary special.
(The episode number sequence for episode 5 is shown, as a voice-over talks)
Announcer: The following program has been brought to you by the number 5.
(fades to black, and now the scene is of a night sky with...
Old School Vol. 1 and The World According to Sesame Street are currently the last DVDs featuring Kermit. Kermit will probably appear in Old School Vol. 2.
I've noticed that in the Marty Feldman episode, right before the Aladdin sketch, Kermit tells Marty that he needs to know what the next story is so that he will know what he needs for casting and props. Shouldn't Kermit have planned ahead and known what stories were going to be performed?
I hope you don't mind me listing "did you notice" facts about other episodes. Here it goes...
MARK HAMIL:
In Six String Orchestra, Scooter is in a bedroom and wearing his regular clothes at the beginning and end, with his clothing being changed in the middle as Scooter fantasizes about...
I was thinking about how this set had the Weezer video, and wonder if Disney will consider any of the following as extras on future sets...
*The pre-recorded video footage shot for The Muppet Show on Tour shows (and if any footage was video tapped of the actual live shows, maybe some...
That sounds similar to the skit where Big Bird had Grover do two chin-ups, over and over again, until finally, Grover was done demonstrating the number two, and then Big Bird wanted Grover to do 18 chin-ups.
I wonder why two anything muppets appeared in the Marty Feldman epsidoe, as opposed to more recognisable characters, like Herry Monster, Sherlock Hemlock, Guy Smiley, Biff, Sully, Gladys the Cow, or The Amazing Mumford.
Sweetums is the only full-body monster seen in the Vincent Price...
I've noticed a lot of this stuff. Have you noticed that in the Elton John epsiode, Janice is the only member of the Electric Mayhem to speak, and it's only during Veterinarian's Hospital? Of course, I think that Floyd and Janice made some soft "ahhhh" singing sounds in Goodbye Yellow Brick Road...
