Well, I don't know what it says when someone becomes disillusioned by something as meaningless as a TV Guide interview. You have to expect sappy oddities like that when you like a licensed character.

It was a gag. The TV Guide writer was writing some really, really terrible jokes on purpose. So he was writing these horrendous Fozzie-worthy jokes. The bit was the writer -- much like Fozzie, himself -- doesn't realize how |terrible| the jokes are.
