Muppets to appear in Disney Channel TV special

[MrsPepper]

Wow, really good clip of them on NBC! Piggy was funny but classy. Kathie Lee was a bit over the top and Piggy didn't fall to Kathy's antics. It was so perfect. AND they found them so funny! I think Kermie seemed a bit too overwhelmed, but I'm glad he was there.

Is it me, or do Miss Piggy's ears look larger?

I don't see anything wrong or offensive as Kermit's costume for his musical number or Piggy's attempt at aping a Jonus Sister - it works in the context of what they're doing - no different than Kermit donning Western threads to yodel with Roy Rogers or Piggy stealing Raquel Welch's costume for her forced duet.

ET. Remember. Used to hang out with a kid on a flying bike, and Drew Barrymore. I'm ashamed of that joke. I truly am.

And yes it is that short.

Oh! I can't believe I didn't get that.

Remember when I said that Piggy would make a great Sharpay?

Well, I'll say it again: Miss Piggy makes a great Sharpay.

When you look at the clip with no sound it looks hilarious!

Here's the video of Kermit and Piggy stopping by the Today Show! http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/25910973#25910973

Awesome Interview!

I agree 100% she stole the show in this clip, and boy while Steve's Kermit was good in this that puppet seriously could use some work or something.

Agreed! But, though it doesn't seem classic with Kermit wearing that costume or Piggy's wig...What DOES seem classic is what they are doing. Piggy and that girl stealing Kermit's attention from one another, and then finally just pushing him straight out the scene Totally classic, think "W.O. M.E.N."

Yeah, earlier when I said "classic Muppets," that's about what I meant. The styles, the songs, the actors are all modern, but what Miss Piggy and Kermit are actually doing in that particular number is just classic. Very Muppet Show.

And, that's "W.O.P.I.G."

 

[TheJimHensonHour]

Perhaps he was trying not to make eye contact with Kathy Lee.

Yeah I heard she eats small animals.

 

[SgtGonzoPepper]

Yeah I heard she eats small animals.

Those are actually the kids who make her clothes...I went there.

 

[TheJimHensonHour]

Those are actually the kids who make her clothes...I went there.

So she eats small children? or the small children who make her clothes eat small animals?
