Did anyone think the Inchworm sketch was ironic?
Here is an insectivorial animal (first it was a frog, then a lizard) sitting on a wall and minding his own bussiness when a little worm taps him and gets eaten. After it happens again, the worm turns out to be the nose a monster who is either...
XD I remember that.
Halfway through his song, the auidience starts booing and throwing trash and Beaker "Mee mee mee-mee"'s angrily at them while gesturing to the crowd with one hand while using the other to grasp the mic. Behind him the EM looked confused and put off, especially Animal who...
It often botherd me that it was always the white poultry that were called chickens. It gave me a complex because it struck me that roosters were a different bird.
I guess what I'm asking is why didn't the male characters turn into roosters and female characters turn into hens?
I remember as soon as a few penguins came offstage after "Alabama Bound" one of them sneezed and became a chicken. I forget just who explained why a simple sneeze had such an effect, but I remember I was shocked, and a bit unnerved, whenever a regular character became a hen after an explosion...
I don't think so. Beakit was actually Piggy under a spell, remember?
And Uncle Deadly is the "Beautiful assisstant", it was similar to the masculine "Miss Kitty", and we can assume "Coco" is the "hideously deformed monster".
There is no doubt some monsters on the show were made so they could perform with the guest star, some even themed after the person. But there are only two examples I can think of...
Uncle Deadly: Some people once questioned if he was based on Vincent Price, and indeed, their attire is similar...
Just how did the Canteen scene in the Alice Cooper episode go? I keep picturing Fozzie one moment with a group of Whatnot kids, the next, the kids transforming into monsters (maybe the Vile Bunch, Alice's band) and ganging up on him to scare him and either laughing afer he runs or towering over him.
Lemme help you out, then;
Gorgon moves behind Lenny and bites down, causing the lizard's legs to fly up, then seems to pull Lenny off the wall. I can't remember if he was swallowed or not.
I was always alarmed when a character was eaten, but not scared. The only sketch that scared me was...
Just Which creature made which sound during Avery's closing number when he was on TMS? Here's what I could pick up, correct me if I'm wront.
Shaky: "Goom", or some sort of gulping sound.
Baby Koozbainians: "(Weedle)"?
Male Koozbainian Creature: Went "Woo!" in the opening credits, then...
When Droop first appeared on "The Muppet Valentine Show" he seems to be wearing a light purple sweater-vest that possibly inspired the purple tuxedos for TMS, but whenever he appeared after that, his only attire was his fur. I sort of thought it made him stand out more from the other monsters...
Is it possible that Shaky and the "monsters" that transform during Piggy's solo number are the same kind of monster? They have fur in the right places. I've seen the Candice Bergen episode and noticed that their design is similar.
She's also shaking, so maybe the bad synching can be seen has her jaw trembling?
Also, Gorgon doesn't move until Rowlf thinks he is the victim. So either could have been performed by someone else at different times.
I was interested in the "Under My Skin" sketch and the backstage scenes.
Although Shaky acts like a small ham while popping his head in and out of view of Behemoth's mouth, the two backstage scenes he's in imply he was scared speechless (though did it almost seem as if he'd been looking...
Just this afternoon the thought came to me that the birds from Sex and Violence should have been in the openining song for Muppet Treasure Island. Which ones could have been in it, where and when could they have appeared and which lines could they have sung?
These two seem to be a good pairing of characters performed by Dave and Frank and seem to mix well together. They often inadverantly seem to team up to cause Kermit some frustration with their silly behavior and in my opinion, Fozzie was probably meant to have more of a friend relationship in...
