    In response to the last part, about "At the Dance"- good suggestions. I hadn't thought about the "Time in a Bottle" singer but it works since I set the episode around that same time. Let's have the British Chap dancing with Granny the Gouger and telling the "I forgot" joke, the old scientist...

    Ack! You caught my slip-up! I had temporarily forgotten about that. Or to put it another way, he's performed by the same puppeteer who performed him in Sandy Duncan's closing number, "Try to Remember". :D David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    TMS outline- Burl Ives!

    I'll start with the ones I know right off the bat. Droop is Jerry Nelson, the pig couple are performed by Richard Hunt (they usually were, at least at that time in the season), the Scoffs are John Lovelady and Eren Ozker, and the Banana is John Lovelady. Mildred is performed by Dave Goelz in...

    TMS outline- Jose Feliciano!

    Well, most of the characters in your list don't speak, or in the case of the pigs, they all do, sing that is, in unison. Jerry and Richard would voice the Muppaphones. I hadn't thought about the horse situation, I may have to get back to you on that. And when I said live turkey, I meant the...

    Don't know offhand. I have no plans currently to expand it into a script but it's not impossible that I will. Link to a clip of "It Takes Two": http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005LZT9/qid=1122444050/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/002-6433053-6412867 David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    TMS outline- David Ogden Stiers

    Droop is (almost) always performed by Jerry Nelson, and is so here. The Roman Legion band Whatnots would be played by all the puppeteers, as would the characters in the closing number and the bats and spelunkers in the opening number. I hadn't decided who performs the Whatnot man in the...

    TMS Outline- Tim Conway!

    Actually, the female Koozebanian puppet represents a male character in this sketch, voiced by Dave Goelz in his Wrench Doozer voice. None of these characters talk, save for the "At the Dance" ones. The Whatnot man and the housewife are performed by Dave Goelz, Gorgon is performed by Jim...

    TMS outline- Christopher Lee!

    "It Takes Two" is the Marvin Gaye/Tammi Terrell duet. I'll see if I can find you a link to a sound byte. Cadet Billy and Cadet Dickie are Dave Goelz and Richard Hunt, sort of in their 'kiddie' voices. Don't forget, TSF, Louise Gold WAS a cast member for most of Season Two and DID do...

    You know, I never decided that. But, I suppose so. Truthfully I can never hear the song in my head sung by anyone else than the original lead singer. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    As far as I can remember (and I can remember pretty well, I have all 120 episodes), that joke was never used before on TMS. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Special Edition Movie DVD's coming in November

    What I wanna know is when "Sam & Friends" will come to DVD. They gave us Sullivan (yay for the existence of the DVD, boo to the cover art), now let's have Sam & Friends! You know you want it. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Emmet Otter Special Edition coming to DVD

    Beaver was my second guess, b/c of his buck teeth. That and there's a woodchuck in there, Yancey, who sings "Barbecue", and he looks nothing like Harvey. Also figures that with all the other kinds of animals in there, they couldn't be devoid of beavers. But at least I was right about...

    Emmet Otter Special Edition coming to DVD

    Quick question- I've can't remember for certain what kind of animals Harvey and Charlie are, though I think their last names are mentioned in the Nickelodeon cut (I just watched the Columbia edit). Anyone remember? I thought Harvey was a woodchuck and Charlie was a Muskrat (perhaps Hettie...

    Well, that fox, called 'Harrison Fox' in "Emmet Otter", was in the Bob Hope episode, in the "For What It's Worth" number, so he did exist in late Season Two. And I just watched "Emmet Otter" and noticed something I hadn't before, something that places the shooting of this special PRIOR to...

    I hate to admit it, but TSF got all of these right, except for maybe some extra chickens in the canteen scene- not that I'm condoning the fact of someone cutting me off at the knees by presuming to act as my mouthpiece, but every single time I or anyone else mentions it/complains, TSF never...

    Gosh, I never did list where Sweetums appears, did I? He sticks around UD most of the time. Actually, in the first backstage scene, change Boppity to Sweetums. Sweetums would also be in "At the Dance" and the closing number. Maybe replace the Mutations in the opening # with Sweetums (not...
