Check out the posts I made about what shows with TMBG, Harry Connick Jr., and Elvis Costello might have been like! I came up with all these off the top of my head!

SPECIAL GUESTS: THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: A small Muppet bird sings "Birdhouse In Your Soul"...from inside a Muppet monster. STATLER: Hey Waldorf, have you ever had a birdhouse in your soul? WALDORF: (in Kermit's voice) No, but I have a frog in my throat...

Thanks! The closing number bit spoofs Elvis Costello's now-legendary Saturday Night Live appearance in 1980. His band, the Attractions, were about to play "Alison" (an early single) when Elvis stopped the band and had them rip into "Radio, Radio". As a result of this, EC wasn't invited back on...

Maybe it's got something to do with the fact that his "best of" is in my CD-ROM at the moment... SPECIAL GUEST STAR: ELVIS COSTELLO OPENING THEME Kermit introduces opening number OPENING NUMBER: A group of Fraggles sing "Aquarius" S&W commentary WALDORF: Y'know, I never liked...

Either that, or he didn't get comped for his meals (which is what I can do at the restaurant I work at ), and found it cheaper to just eat someplace else!

All I know is that when I rented the LSoH DVD, Frank seemed to get along with Rick very well, at least according to his own commentary, which is well worth hearing. And Frank does sound like an older, wiser Bert or Fozzie Bear (more or less the same thing!) when he talks in his normal voice...

Wouldn't surprise me in the least...Frank Oz directed Rick in "Little Shop of Horrors", and that Sesame Street bit WAS done with Bert (this was before Eric Jacobson started performing him), so I'm assuming they're friends.

SPECIAL GUEST: HARRY CONNICK, JR. OPENING THEME Kermit comes out and introduces the opening number. OPENING NUMBER: Simon the Soundman (of "Sesame Street" fame) sings "If I Were A Bell" to a pink female Anything Muppet, complete with appropriate sound effects in place of words...

Here's one to get the ball rolling! OKLAHOMA!: Curly--Kermit Laurey--Miss Piggy Will--Floyd Ado Annie--Janice Jud--Uncle Deadly Ali Hakim--Gonzo Judge Carnes--Rowlf Skidmore--Fozzie Bear Himself--Animal Chorus Members--everyone else

I just thought about this--how many people that have appeared in Mel Brooks movies have also done some Muppet-related work? Here's who I came up with: Mel Brooks (The Muppet Movie) Madeline Kahn (Sesame Street, The Muppet Show) Zero Mostel (The Muppet Show) Dom DeLuise (The Muppet Show...

Second favorite Grover moment: when Grover's the waiter and Simon the Soundman is his customer. Grover can't get with the concept of Simon's sound effects and keeps bringing him the wrong thing. Finally, when Grover gets Simon's order right, Simon changes his mind. It is also revealed in this...

My favorite one has to be, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the Charlie's restaurant segments. It seems that Charlie has decided to turn his establishment into a Mexican restaurant (with appropriate food and atmosphere) while retaining Grover as waiter. And yes, Virginia, Fat Blue is still...
