I forget which episode this is from:

Zoot: Do you believe in the here-after.
Janice: Oh yes.
Zoot: Oh good. Then you know what I'm here after.

That wasn't a whatnot. That was Miss Piggy. One of her best lines.

Actually, it's kind of hard to enjoy "At the Dance" segments from the first season since both Piggy and Janice spoke with their original voices.

I sort of enjoyed them more later on when Fozzie got involved. I also liked Piggy's and Gonzo's musical numbers. Also did Richard's Janice ever appear in an "At the Dance" besides in the Pearl Bailey episode?

I think it's from the Sex and Violence pilot:

Kermit: "I can get you a spot on a popular eduacation program" or something like that :big_grin:

Actually, it's "I can get you a job on an educational show for kids".

Now, here's some more of my favorite "At the Dance" jokes:

Bruce Forsyth:

Janice (to Zoot): Do you know what happened in 1776?
Zoot: No, but there's a great party in 1342.


Paul Williams:

Rowlf: I had a bit part in a movie last week:
Pink-sweatered woman: A bit part?
Rowlf: Yeah, I bit someone.


Peter Ustinov:

Rowlf (to Sexy Muppet): Hey, you wanna stop by the punch bowl?
Sexy Muppet: Why do they call it a punch bowl? (a boxing glove pops out of the punch bowl and punches her in the face)
Rowlf: That's why.

Janice: For once, I'd like to stand next to Queen Elizabeth.
Zoot: I'd rather sit in with Count Basey.

Mildred: I find that most people don't believe what other people tell them.
George: I don't think that's true.


Mummenschanz:

Pink-sweatered woman: Animal, my watch won't run.
Animal: Here. I'll run it for you. (runs the woman to the back of the room, then back towards the camera)


Harvey Korman:

Male Pig (to Piggy): Say, how do you think I'd look in a pork pie hat?
Piggy: Oh, no, you couldn't! You'd be like wearing one of our relatives!

Janice: That's what's annoying me.


Kaye Ballard:

Piggy: (says some romantic language to Kermit)
Kermit: Is that Italian?
Piggy: No, it's Pig Latin.


Florence Henderson:

Shouting Lady (to moustached man): Shall we take this moment to announce our engagement?
Moustached Man: Eh, why not?
Shouting Lady: OH! WE'RE ENGAGED! AH-HA-HA! I'VE WAITING SO LONG! WE'RE ENGAGED!


Charles Aznavour:

Piggy (to male pig): What is it you do for a living?
Male Pig: Well, I'm a garbage man.
Piggy: That's fantastic! Do you deliver?


Phyllis Diller:

Male Pig (to female pig): I'm so crazy about you, I can't even see straight!
Female Pig: Oh, I'm so goofy about you, I can't eat!
Male Pig: I'm so much in love with you, I can't even sleep!
Female Pig: What should we do?
(Zoot walks up to them.)
Zoot: Check into a hospital, man!

Janice (to Gloat): Wasn't that garlic you had for dinner, huh?
Gloat: Are you kidding? (breathes fire, prompting Janice to duck)
