I was suprised to find no mention of this online video in the minor series by Oancitizen so I though I'd post a link. It briefly delves into what the author thinks is a hidden influence on The Muppets. I try to explain further, but this video kinds of speaks for itself. It doesn't take to long and not that hard to follow, but it helps if you know something about the playwrite whose name I can never recall (though I am familiar with some of this better known songs). Nothing all that radical mind you, but I'm curious to see if anyone thinks theres a kernal of truth to it.
