This is a pretty neat thread......never thought of it myself...but now since you pointed it out......it is quite funny.

Bernie Brillstein the Yiddish Yodeler. Bernie Brillstein, or course, was in real life Jim Henson's agent.David French said:Who was the only guest star (in the context of the show) who sent the note with messenger boy Chris Langham?
You wanna talk weirder than the Muppets? There's only one guest star IMO who's palpably crazier than they are: the father of British absurdist comedy, Spike Milligan. He was also a manic-depressive whose fans considered it an extreme honor if he swore at them, so that right there says a lot.Daffyfan2003 said:A few I can think of who fit that category are Steve Martin and Madeline Kahn. They seemed weirder than the Muppets at least in the opening scenes.
If any of the guests who were on the show really weren't happy, I'd say it would be someone who guest starred during the first season, as it was really hard to get people to agree to be guests that year, and also many of the guest stars guest starred as a favor for somebody who worked on the show.rexcrk said:I think it's people who acted like they didn't wanna be on the show. (I can't think of why someone wouldn't enjoy being on The Muppet Show )
According to the Muppet Morsels, she thought of The Muppet Show differently than other celebrities at the time she was on. It says that most celebrities thought that the muppet show didn't have a chance at success, but she believed in them. I think the morsels said that she liked being on there.Saironi said:I also remember reading Lena Horne didn't seem to like being on the show, but I only half saw it. Another thought is, maybe she was too dedicated to performing musical numbers or something.
