And for the UK Skit, Sam the Eagle, backstage at Kermit's desk, interviewed the author of the play- Mr. William Shakespeare! Enter a young Whatnot man with a NY accent. Funny bit. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Only one of them appeared in the Alice Cooper episode. Ditto the Paul Williams episode. All three appeared in Melissa Manchester's closing number, two of them were in the goodnights, too. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

In the Season 2 episode "Sir Hubris and the Gorgs", the Fraggles hatch a plot to get the Gorgs to leave forever by posing as the former ruler of the universe who gave his crown to the Gorgs, and upon whose return they must surrender the crown and leave to wander the universe. They succeed in...

Hi all! I'm looking for a good video copy of "Sing After Me", the song Madeline Kahn & Grover did on SS, to include on a video I'm making for a friend of mine (who LOVES Madeline Kahn). Also looking for two 'opera' sketches/songs from SS; both featured a purple-skinned, brunette soprano...

It's called "Everybody's Song". It was sung by three girl pigs in wigs with a Mahna Mahna resembling character called Bip Bippadotta. They had a lot of characters on SS who looked and sounded like Mahna Mahna, Bip being one. The song was on one of the SS albums, it's probably listed on the...

Wha? What "Weird Al" Yankovic song mentions Mahna Mahna? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Like TravellingMatt and myself! David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

How about 'Husband & Wife' episodes with Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas, Matthew Broderick & Sarah Jessica Parker, and maybe Jennifer Connelly & Paul Bettany? From the upcoming Phanton of the Opera feature film: *Emmy Rossum *Gerard Butler *Minnie Driver *Patrick Wilson (also in...

Okay, a longer list it is: Juliet Prowse, Connie Stevens, Joel Grey (love the look and feel of those first few) Rita Moreno (so many different comedy styles in the same half hour! So terrific!) Paul Williams (my all-time favorite, the template for things to come, the format clicks in) Ben...

Emerald, where does the pic in your avatar come from? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I don't know, I can't really decide which was worse: the underwhelming musical numbers, or the dumb sketches (and not dumb-funny, just plain dumb). Muppet bit was the best part of it, but too short. The show was at least a notch dumber than Sonny & Cher's show. That's really saying...

My favorite is actually not Gorgon Heap. It's THOG. I just love that guy, the big, cute, blue lummox. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Forgot about another prolific guest star they could have- Michael Caine! Two Oscars and they've worked with him before- why not? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

For you Muppet fans who don't know, two-time Oscar-winner Sir Peter Ustinov was a guest in the first season of "The Muppet Show" and had a cameo as the truck driver in "The Great Muppet Caper". Actor Sir Peter Ustinov dies Sir Peter had an acting career spanning more than 60 years...

Piggy telling people that she and Kermit are engaged IS the Andy Williams episode. Count- the Pigs in Space episode in which they encounter "Snackawaves", which turn everything on the ship into food (including the crew members) is from the Pearl Bailey episode. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

2 1/2 minutes is a 'long' musical number? Oh dear. I hope they do bring back musical numbers and guests doing things they aren't known for doing. One thing (of many) I hated about MT was that there was not enough music (odd for a variety show), too much overt parody (which wasn't very...

Thought of some more famous people who sing: From X-Men Hugh Jackman Patrick Stewart (also would bring the Star Trek fanbase) Ian McKellen (also would bring Lord of the Rings fan base) James Marsden Kelly Hu from X2 said that Jackman, Stewart, McKellen and Marsden would often go around...

'All I have to do is dream', better known simply as "Dream" (actual title) by the Everly Brothers, was never performed on TMS. Come to think of it, they never did ANY Everly Brothers music on the show! For shame! David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I used "Up, Up and Away" as the closing # in my Paul Lynde outline. Paul is a paratrooper commander with Fozzie, Gonzo, Scooter, Crazy Harry and Luncheon Counter Monster as the paratroopers. The Electric Mayhem plays the song while the others sing, and Thog dances around in the airplane. One...

A couple of songs by The Platters- "The Great Pretender" featuring a male guest star with the Gills Brothers "Harbor Lights"- same, perhaps outside a party, overlooking the dock/sea at night (yes, I'm a very visual thinker, although I can't form the symbols over my head like Kermit in the...
