Muppet Film and TV References

[Drtooth]

Bump!

In, of all things, an episode of Super Mario Bros. 3, I found one...

In the episode Sneaky, lying, giant Ninja Koopas, not only do they have a reference to the TMNT movie, (Big Mouth said, "I love Bein' a Koopa," ala Michelangelo), there was also this one scene where a giant parrot whines about Koopa using its cage as a prison for Luigi, Toad, and Princess...

"My whole life was in that cage! My Big Bird Poster, my Worms from Outerspace Comics.... everything!"

In a Friends episode (can't remember which one) I think... Joey (??? Maybe it was Chandler... I so don't remember this episode) has a girlfriend, and she has a really odd name so one of the 'friends' says "Is she from Fraggle Rock?"

in that episode of friends chandler makes a new years resolution/bet with ross to be less sarcastic all the time and ross comes in and says he has a date with a girl named elisabeth hornswaggle. and at the end of the episode chandler finally cracks gives ross the money and says " Hornswaggle, what are you, dating a character from fraggle rock?" then he sighs with relief.

Hi folks,
Certainly I've got one you never heard of.
In 2001, comedian Giorgio Panariello and big-band member Paolo Belli were on a show together. As a theme, Paolo started to play "The muppet show". When Giorgio says: Would you do something a little more dramatic?, Paolo plays TMS theme song slowed down and sad.

There was one in "Sealab 2021" when they suggest doing something out of "Fantastic Voyage" where they shrink themselves down in a miniature rocket and get injected into the bloodstream. Stormie, the resident idiot, says it's like that episode of "Muppet Babies" where has Spinal Menengitis....Well, at least that's what Stormie thinks, anyway. He's not the brightest bulb in the bunch, eh?
