BobHopeSite,
Ive looked through the TV Schedules and couldnt find that the Muppets were on the show tonight. Still, watch it just to be sure.

I know that we missed the First Episode of Flip Wilson which aired on Sunday, And the Muppets were in that one.

The Next Muppet Appearance is -

July 25 2004, 4:30AM EASTERN/PACIFIC TIME - Guests: Pearl Bailey, The Muppets, Jack Benny.
Highlights include Flip performing with "Sesame Street" Muppets Bert and Ernie; a comedy sketch with Flip, Pearl Bailey, and Jack Benny; and a duet with Flip and Bailey.

The episode with Big Bird was just on this morning. I was lucky to have caught it. It was interesting to see how dumb Big Bird was played. I'm glad he didn't remain that way.

I saw on the guide that another Muppet episode of Flip Wilson is airing in the next couple days but I can't recall what day. I believe it's on Thursday though.

That Flip Wilson is really funny! And I'm glad he included the Muppets as guests.

And is it me, or does he remind you a lot of Wayne Brady?

I've been watching a few of these, and they're really fun! The one with Loretta Long, Big Bird, and Oscar is playing on my Tivo right now. I'm really surprised at how different Oscar looks! I think this was the first year he was green (rather than orange), and the whole shape of his face is much different from how it is now.
