Hey everyone!

Rizzo MIGHT be appearing on the Jerry Lewis telethon (it just started on WGN). I just heard the announcer list the hosts. When he said "Tom Bergeron", they showed a little video insert with him talking to Rizzo. There was no sound, they just played the opening music over it.

Tom and Rizzo both had tuxes on. That's all I know. The announcer said nothing about the Muppets, but I know Rizzo when I see him!:shifty: Is Rizzo on tonight...or was that just old footage?

Right now, they have these tap dancers on dancing to "Grand Old Flag". Anyone else seeing this?

Aaaargh! I missed it! I took a shower and thought the tape was recording but it didn't!:frown: If I had only waited 10 minutes longer...

It was last year's stuff, eh? Ah well, it'll be on Youtube I suppose. I'll have to search for it...:search:
