#7 Florence Henderson: Lenny the Lizard and the Snake Frackle
I agree. Kermit and Lenny on the stage together would be interesting since they have the same design, right?

Agreed: 4, 9, 10, 13, 18, 20, 43, 47, 57, 64, 67, 70, 72 (!)
Partial: #15 (Boppity & esp. Mildred instead of Gloat & Hilda), #68 (agreed on groupies & Hawaiian pigs, maybe the chimp as well)

For #23 Kaye Ballard, I would have Thog & Animal instead of Gonzo & Scooter. Might add Thog & one of the band members to the goodnights of #10 Harvey Korman, as well.

For #16 Avery Schreiber, Scooter was an egregious oversight. What about Wayne (to show he's all right) or Gorgon Heap (to maybe look over Shaky Sanchez as a possible meal candidate) instead of Ohboy Bird? Or Rowlf, as he appeared in, what, 4 acts in the show?

To add my own, I would've rather seen Zoot & Gloat in the goodnights of #3 Joel Grey, instead of the Banana and (I think I can barely see him) Beautiful Day Monster.

John Denver: flowers, any one of the Whatnots that sang "Why Can't We Be Friends?"
Brooke Shields: the Duchess, anyone from the Jabberwocky skit
James Coburn: one of the octopi, Betsy Bird, a cowboy, the "Close to You" guy
Agreed on a Jabberwocky creature, octopus, and a cowboy, and on the John Denver suggestions.
