Well, I got the tape with the Rita Moreno episode today. I've noticed other than Piggy and Janice with different voices, there were quite a few character changes. Marvin Suggs sounded a little different. I wonder if he was still performed by Frank. To me it sounded like, there was a hint of Jerry Nelson's voice there. The Newsman, didn't sound as different as a thought he would. What got me more was how strange he looked without his glasses. There was a point where Fozzie sounded different. He sounded fine in the Vet's Hospital sketch, but when he performed his monolouge, his voice was much lower. Actually, even though I heard it before a few days ago, I was a bit surprised at Richard's Piggy. It's hard to imagine she sounded completely different for most of that season. Well, except in the conversation panel. That was the pig we all know and love. I don't know why they would change things that much though. Especially, when they both perform her in the same episode. Actually, I know some people mentioned how different she looked. I didn't think she looked too different other than maybe having a thicker head. And there's Waldorf and Statler's box. It was facing a different angle than usual. It's weird, I didn't notice quite as many changes in the Vincent Price episode. Hopefully, I'll receive more first season eps soon. It's nice to see what things were like in the early days of the show.
Oh another thing, I looked at Byron's site earlier today. Was Fozzie the Vet's Hospital patient in both the Rita Moreno episode and the Buddy Rich episode? I didn't think they had the same patient more than once. I know somebody posted a list of Vet's Hospital patients here before, but I can't find that message. Can someone link me to that thread? Thanks.
