If you guys could, seeing as how you have better sight than me, please provide me with a list of all the Muppets who appeared in the Brooke Shields episode of TMS, the one where they recreated the world of Wonderland during the whole episode. Also, please match up the Muppet character with the Wonderland character they played in this special episode. For example, Gonzo the Great as the Mad Hatter; the March Hare; and the Dormouse Chicken or Doormouse Chicken, etc.
Thanks for your help and have a good day.

I believe that Fozzie was the Tin Man, because he was under the impression the show was going to be "The Wizard of OZ". :wink:

OK, so we've got Fozzie Bear as the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz who'll be added to my listings. But what about the rest of the Muppets In Wonderland cast I asked for? If anybody could, please post it fright here in this little thread. Thanks for your help and have a good night.

Well I can post what I remember.

Marvin Suggs was a judge with one of those English white wigs and I black robe.

Piggy was the queen of hearts but she was also in an Alice costume because she originally assumed she'd be Alice.

Floyd was the catipillar.

I believe Statler and Waldorf were Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.

Dr. Teeth was the cat.

Thats all I can remember.

Gonzo was the Mad Hatter. A nondescript bunny was the March Hare (played by Steve Whitmire). I could be wrong, but I believe the Tea Mouse was Rizzo (with no lines, of course). Scooter appeared as the knight in a reindition of "Jabberwocky," the famous poem from that book.

Dr. Teeth was indeed the Cheshire Cat.

Hmm, I'm drawing a blank now. Can anyone else remember the rest?

Well, if by "tea mouse" you mean the Dormouse then yes that's incorrect. At least, as far as I know www.kermitage.com has that character listed as "The Doormouse Chicken" thus it was played by one of the chickens.

Was Marvin Suggs the Judge at the trial of the Knave of Hearts?
Who played the role of the Knave then?
Was Miss Piggy both Alice and the Queen of Hearts? And was the Queen the role she ended up playing?
Was Floyd the Blue Caterpillar?
Were Statler and Waldorf rully Tweedledee and Tweedledum respectively? Which was which?
Thanks for your help and have a good night.

That's right, the Doormouse was a chicken. Hilarious casting against type! It's been too long, I had forgotten that.

Alice: "That's a dormouse? Doesn't look much like a mouse to me."
March Hare: "Doesn't look much like a door, either!"

Actually, he was under the impression the show was "Peter Pan." Don't ask. Lol.
