Really enjoyable article, Ken, thanks for posting the link. I love the bit at the end about Landis and Tim Burton and The Muppet Movie, I had no idea.

I think it's cool that Landis was Grover! A Frank Oz character. I suppose that's why, in Blues Brothers, the one guy in the toy store holds up a Grover doll and says, "Do you have this in a Miss Piggy?" I love that line! HA!!

Landis, Oz, Muppets, SNL, Aykroyd...the connections continue!
