My friend and I were watching "Muppet Treasure Island" the other day so I came up with another one. Jerry Nelson's cameo as Squire Trewlaney's butler.

I never really had a favorite cameo during my first few years in the fandom, but nowadays the "bears wear hats" scene in Muppet Caper with Jerry and Christine resonates with me on a personal level. Not just because of my knowledge of Christine's illness, but because of Jerry's own death and how he's probably with her again in the afterlife. (Also sorry if I bummed you all out there...)
Second favorite is Jim at the end of the Christmas special, watching all of his creations singing together. Seriously the culmination of his life's work.

I actually found Richard Hunt as the taxi driver pretty funny in The Great Muppet Caper. It was also nice seeing Jerry Nelson cameo in season 40, ignoring his obvious poor health with the tube around his nose.
