    What was this Guy Smiley skit about?

    I saw this a long LONG time ago! It was probably in '69 or '70, but not sure. Anyway, it was a game show skit, and there was a monster couple on. Beautiful Day Monster played the husband, and that green monster with no arms (The one in the 'A' skit, 5th one on the right) played the 'wife'. I...

    What I think today's SS should have

    I think they should have a classic segment, they can call it something like a memory lane moment or the SS vault, something from '69 or early 70s. It's important for the young ones today to see it's origins.

    Questions on Prarie Dawn

    Now I take it one of you has a picture of her below your screen name, if this is the same character I'm talking of. Was she the one with straight blondish hair? There may have been many versions of her over the years. What were some of her early looks? And was she the one in many skits like the...

    Noticed this at the end of the skits

    At the end of every skit, the muppets would either look to the audience and tilt their head to the ending music. It was always kind of cute. Or we all know Bert's famous fainting at the end or someone would storm off screen yelling or what have you. These are just the little things you pick up...

    'Manuh Manuh' song on commercial

    Have any of you seen this yet? There was a commercial for vanilla diet Dr. Pepper with a man and woman, and he lip syncs along with others in the restaurant to the famous 'manuh manuh' song. This was the version from SS. I was suprised to see this. It's good to see many remember this classic...

    Question: Who does Kermits voice now?

    I never got the name of the guy who took over Kermits voice. Hedoes a good job, of course, Jim was the master.

    'Good Morning Starshine' skit

    Obviously in '69 because that was a big hit then by the late Oliver. I guess it's fitting that they had that muppet character, Big Jeffy I believe his name was? And the other 'hippie' anyhting muppets. Can't understand why the girl though. That was the anything muppet from the first show. Bob...

    How did Kermit always dance?

    I remember he would kind of wave both arms side to side with his head a bit tilted, hopping on one leg at a time. Who else can recall?

    'Everyone Like Ice Cream'

    I always liked this skit with those three anything muppets. I know the voice of one of them was Carroll Spinney, one was Henson's, don't know who the girl's voice was. At the end, CM's voice I can tell was NOT Frank Oz's correct? To me, it sounded like someone totally different, unless I'm...

    Skit: CM gets tried on as a fur coat!

    There was this skit, may have been '71, but not sure, where Cookie Monster goes into a dept and one of the anything muppets mistake him for a fur coat! Ms. Anything: OH! It fits perfectly! I'll charge it and wear it home. CM: (as they leave ) Lady? Uh,lady! LADY!! It always was a...

    Remember the Muppets on Flip Wilson?

    On TV Land I was watching the re-runs of The Flip Wilson show, always liked it as a kid, and two episodes I saw were with the Muppets: The first one was with Ernie and Bert singing a song with Flip, don't know what it was. The second, Flip was singing a different version of 'Consider...

    What muppets were in this skit

    The 'Yellow Submarine' skit, I think Beautiful Day Monster was one, who were the rest?

    This was a great skit!

    Anyone see the skit with the four muppets singing 'I am a great musician'? I saw this recently and thought it was cool!! I liked the early design of Jim Henson's muppets in this, with the stripes and buttons painted on to make them look like marching band musicians. Was this song an old song...

    How did the 'Yellow Submarine' skit go?

    What I really mean is that I forgot who the characters were in it and how was the scene. It's all very vague to me because I was so young at the time.

    Does anyone have this skit on video?

    It may not even be available because I've posted a few times, so there is a chance no one may have it, but I am looking for a certain Kermit skit. It's been talked about in a few posts and by now some may be sick of hearing it, but here it goes: I'm looking for the skit where he has two...

    Skits that made you kind of sad

    Well, for me, it was always Kermit singing 'It's not easy being green'. Anyone else?

    What did you think of Kermit's shape lectures?

    My favorite was the one with the rectangle. He tells CM to beat it so he could continue his lesson and Cookie pounds on the rectangle, breaking it in half. I loved Kermit's response to this: 'EEEESSHH!!!!'

    What other 60s song's were done in skits?

    We know they did 'Octopus' Garden' and Oliver's 'Good Morning Starshine'. Also the Beatle's 'Yellow Submarine'. Are there any more, or have I named them all?

    Cookie Monster's voice

    In watching the early SS clips, CM's voice sounded different. At first, I don't think it was Frank Oz who originally did his voice. Unless I'm wrong, it just sounded different to me. Did someone else do his voice before Frank? I know he did the voice of the Beautiful Day monster (Jim did the...

    Kermit interview-fun

    It's amazing how Kermit has taken on an identitiy of his own over the years, how some see him in mainstream as a star rather than just part of a show like SS or Muppets. They did a fun interview with 'Kermit' on,forget what show, I think it was on channel 7 WABC. Since this is his 50th year...
