Muppet Film and TV References

[animalrescuer]

On "Man vs. Food: Nation", the host, Adam Richman, made a voice similar to The Count and said "Eight, eight slices of cheese!" and performed something close the The Count's signature laugh.

I don't count The Great _____ Caper titles to be references to the muppets *shrugs*

No, but it's probably why they chose the name. *shrugs*

I like shrugging too! *shrug* *shrug*

It's a *shrug* war!

*shrug* *shrug* *shrug* *pant* *pant* *shrug*

He's making what looks like a Beaker face...though I'm going to bet it was a coincidence more than a reference. Spongebob is always making strange faces...

Yeah, I totally thought of Beaker when I saw that. Also his hyperventilating kinda sounded like he was doing something similar to Beaker's voice.

I dunno, maybe it's just me *shrugshrugshrug*

Oh good grief, what have I started?

I was watching GSN (Game Show Network) & on $100,000 Pyramid , (Kermit ) was mentioned in one of the subjects .

I remember one from Whose Line Is It Anyway, they're doing one of those things where the style keeps changing and it was something about killer bees I think, they change to the style of Sesame Street and one of the guys says in a Bert voice "Can you spell Bee?" and another says in an Ernie voice "You can't spell B, Bert, it's only one letter!"

That was Greg Proops! I think it was either Collin, or Ryan (or it might've been Wayne Brady who said that last bit!)

This isn't exactly a Muppet reference, but I found it very funny.

In an episode of "Once Upon a Time" (I think it was Season One, episode 13), David/Prince Charming is in the hospital when a doctor tells him he is going to tranfer him to Dr. Hopper, who's the head doctor there.

Doc Hopper! That really made me laugh.

GOT ONE! Rupaul's Drag Race episode title, Draggle Rock. Also Manilla Luzon did a tribute to Big Bird http://thegaybeaner.com/2012/09/20/big-bird-coming-to-town-no-its-manila-luzon/

Here's another odd comic book reference. I didn't even get this one until I saw the screen shot of the page and I own the issue...

Ugh... I can't find it.

Anyway, in one of the issues of Darkwing Duck (forget which one), Quacker Jack either hides out in or attacks a store called "Clint Wacky's Joke Shop."

Clint Wacky, you see, is the character from The Muppet Show Comic Book: On the Road that was a very nasty comedian beloved in the town of Little Statwald.

Yep... an interlicense comic reference to a comic book only Muppet character.
