Hi all.
I"m trying to remember a quote from the Muppet Show and I haven't had any luck finding or remembering it.

Kermit and I think Gonzo were standing backstage and a whole mess o' chaos is running around them and Kermit says something like "...and chickens on skis?"

And Gonzo replies, "These are a few of my favorite things!"

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!:crazy:

It's from the Muppet Show guest starring Melissa Manchester. In this show, a group of skiers sings "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" while tumbling all over eachother. Later on the show, the Swedish Chef's chickens seem to be bouncing all through the theatre - to which Kermit replies:

Kermit: "Skiers on crutches and chickens on springs!"
Gonzo: *ZOOF* "These are a few of my favorite things!"

Hope I helped!
:sing:

I wish I could remember all the things that folks can remember about TMS. I never in a million YEARS could have remembered that whole sketch thing!!

BTW, does Mahna Mahna appear on any of the 15 dvd's?

Cool av, Annie Sue! :smile:

Vol. 15 has the Juliet Prowse episode, which has "Mahna Mahna" on it.
