    First season closing credits

    Well.... Peter Ustinov - The Hatrack is credited as one of the writers; does that count? ;-) Julie Andrews - Zoot's last note is replaced by a Moo. Oh, and the camera stays on the stage as the end credits run, with Julie asking Kermit and Fozzie if they've seen her cow and even describing...

    :-) Thanks for the kind words. I've now posted a thread about cuts made to episodes in NZ.

    Cuts made in New Zealand

    When TV 3 in NZ (owned by CanWest) aired the series in 1992, they made a large number of cuts to every episode. The following is a list of the cuts that were made, based on the info from the episode guides on this site. For the moment, I can only give you the cuts made to the first two seasons...

    First season closing credits

    'fraid not. Most of that is coming from memory, and unfortunately I don't have any full episodes on video tape.... Actually, strictly speaking that's not true. I have the Buddy Rich episode in full (sans UK Skit) but it's the version with Zoot blowing a bubble, but more importantly I don't...

    First season closing credits

    I certainly can. In fact, I posted what some of them were on IMDB under the Crazy Credits section. :-) Harry Belafonte - one of the Masked dancers blows the Sax note at the end (on stage as well). Roger Miller - Zoot as a Chicken blows the final note. Dudley Moore - Animal starts to hit...

    Your Thoughts: TMS Season 1 DVD

    I can understand the arguments in both camps - on the one hand it is disappointing that cuts have been made, but on the other I understand why the cuts have been made. I sympathise completely with those in the first camp - when TV 3 in NZ (owned by CanWest) played re-runs in the 1990's, they...

    First season closing credits

    No, I was merely answering the query that someone had earlier as to what the last shot was on that particular episode.

    First season closing credits

    I disagree; Carlton have released DVD sets of The Saint, The Professionals amongst others on the Umbrella label, but despite that they have kept all the old Copyright text on the end credits (pity they didn't restore the original Season One titles for The Professionals). Just because a certain...

    Muppet Show Season 1

    Two things wrong with that. 1. Robin does appear in the First Season. He sings "Halfway up the Stairs" in the Harvey Korman show and he's part of the Frog Chorus in "I'm in Love With a Big Blue Frog" from the Paul Williams show. 2. Kermit and Fozzie do get along. Its just that Kermit...

    Where does this Muppet clip come from?

    That's from the Anne Murray episode. It happens just after the Pigs perform 'I Get Around' on motorcycles as the opening number.

    Trying to remember a guest

    Easy one. This was from the Panel sketch done on the Candice Bergen episode.

    First season episodes

    That's because he appeared in most (if not all) of the 'At the Dance' sketches. Although come to think of it, he can be seen playing his sax in every episode.

    First season episodes

    I think you ought to read over the Season One episode guide on this site, as most (if not all) of the episodes do have plots, eg Kaye Ballard, Harvery Korman, Rita Moreno, Ethel Merman, Mummenschanz, Ruth Buzzi, Juliet Prowse, Connie Stevens....I could go on.

    "Is Conversation a Dying Art?"

    I understand that, but the point I was trying to make is that perhaps that was an intentional piece of continuity by the production team. Indeed, if you watch a lot of TV shows in recording order, you get a better idea of what the production team had in mind when they were filming. Off-hand, I...

    What episode has...

    The Mahna Mahna skit appeared in Episode #1 (Juliet Prowse). The Prairie Dogs episode was the one with Crystal Gayle.

    "Is Conversation a Dying Art?"

    This could be mere coincidence but... In the Harvery Korman episode of TMS, the panel discuss about life, and at the end Kermit says that they will discuss the topic "Is Conversation a Dying Art?". This topic was raised in the Rita Moreno show, however... The Kermitage and the episode...

    UK Transmission Dates - 'The Muppet Show'

    Hi, I'm new around here. I've been meaning to point this out for ages, but I've come across an online article from the BBC about 'The Muppet Show' that includes the original UK Transmission Dates. Sadly, it doesn't include the order that the episodes were played in, but I thought it might be...
