I must say that it's ABOUT TIME that the Henson folks finally made a mention of the AIDS issue, even though their one HIV-positive Muppet is not in North America. Many people (especially in articles on MC) have wanted this to come about for some time, especially after Richard Hunt's death. (The...

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: MEL BROOKS OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: Clifford and various Muppets serenade a shy Anything Muppet and his pretty girlfriend with "Kiss The Girl". Finally the Anything Muppet boyfriend kisses his girlfriend...and she turns into Gloat in drag. WALDORF: You know...

P.S. The "Lawrence G. Hornbeck" name is one I invented from numerous sources--there was a character in a book I read in 5th grade by D. Manus Pinkwater entitled "Lizard Music" named Lawrence Lawrence, which I found amusing (footnote: a few years later I would meet someone named George George. I...

Just wait until the one I have planned with special guest star Mel Brooks! Mel's one of my heroes, so you know I'll pull out all the stops on this one. I can't wait to hear your Sammy Davis, Jr. one!

My favorite Jerry Nelson characters: THE MUPPET SHOW--Floyd SESAME STREET--The Count, Little Jerry, Fat Blue, Simon the Sound Man, and Farley FRAGGLE ROCK--Pa Gorg, Gobo, and Marjory the Trash Heap

I love that particular episode AND that song. Truly a chance for Dave Goelz to exercise the schizoid in him. He actually served in three different roles: Boober, Sidebottom (Boober's "fun side"), and the real Gypsy Lady. Mr. Goelz has said that was one of the most demanding performances he's...

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: MATTHEW BRODERICK OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem play "The Impression That I Get". STATLER: I get the same impression of this show every week. WALDORF: Me too. BOTH: IT STINKS! DOHHH HO HO HO... BACKSTAGE: Kermit is planning...

Hmmm, a lot of my favorites were already mentioned. Here are some of the ones that weren't: The skit where inhabitants of the Street introduce themselves in alphabetical order. (A--Alterrian, B--Bob, C--Cookie, D--David...etc.) The Question Song with Grover and a little girl. "Name...

Forgot one...I have the USA for Africa CD which has a Kenny Rogers song on it, as well as Harry Belafonte, Paul Simon, and Diana Ross, who sang on "We Are The World".

THANK YOU! I was wondering when "The Producers" would be reissued on DVD. All that's out now is the making of the cast album of the Broadway smash hit (12 Tonys, y'know). Actually, the only difference between the play and the movie is that the character of Lorenzo St. DuBois (LSD) has been...

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: MADONNA OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: Two Anything Muppets sing "There's A Hole In The Bucket" (think the Sesame Street version). WALDORF: Bravo! Bravo! I loved it! I always liked "There's A Hole In The Bucket"... STATLER: Then there must be a hole in your head...

Here's what I was thinking: an ep of Sesame Street where the Muppet Show gang goes to visit their pal Kermit on "Sesame Street". Some of the hijinx that would ensue: Fozzie reprises his "Good grief, the comedian's a bear" bit with Gordon. Gonzo tries to get Luis to fix his iron (which is...

I don't know, but I remember that spot being quite funny. It could have also worked on "The Muppet Show". (In fact, it may have been better placed on TMS.) I love the Anything Muppet farmer's wife's comment at the end of the song: "I should've married Luke..."

I was thinking about this. Here's who I have some recorded work by (this includes soundtracks, one song on a compilation, etc.) Elton John Julie Andrews (My Fair Lady) Gene Kelly (Singin' In The Rain) Paul Simon Harry Belafonte Lou Rawls Steve Martin (Little Shop of Horrors) John...

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: TIM CURRY OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: Sweetums sings "I Can't Help It" (Herry Monster's song from "Sesame Street") while (inadvertantly) demolishing the set for the opening number. STATLER: Bravo! Bravo! I loved it! WALDORF: What are you talking about? That...

Baby Bree Bop A Doo was the green Anything Muppet (also used for Farley, Sherlock Hemlock, and Little Jerry), only made to be female. She was one of Roosevelt Franklin's pals. I remember a character named Fenwick, he appeared in a Guy Smiley skit, but I don't remember what he looked like. I...

Kim... About "Help! My Nerves"... I heard this song last night while copying a tape of old Yiddish songs for a new friend who was interested in hearing it. The Yiddish title is "Gevaldt! Di Nerven" and was sung by a man named Jacob Zanger, who recorded it in 1925. Mr. Zanger not only...

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: WILLIE NELSON OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: Janice and two Anything Muppet backup singers sing "Leader Of The Pack". At the appropriate time, Floyd rides in on a motorcycle, but something goes wrong with the brakes and he goes flying into Statler and Waldorf's box...

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: NATHAN LANE OPENING THEME OPENING NUMBER: Fozzie Bear and various Muppets sing "The King of Broadway" from "The Producers" (with some sanitized lyrics). STATLER: Do you think Fozzie will ever make it back on Broadway? WALDORF: Only with a tour group! BOTH...

I kind of liked that! Hmmm....now what if Molly Shannon was a special guest? I could easily see her incorporating Mary Katherine Gallagher in there somewhere..
