(Scooter is in his room, looking through a scrapbook)
Scooter: Oh, hello there. I'm Scooter, and I'm looking through my scrap book of great guest star moments from the first season of The Muppet Show. I have collected pictures and other things of the guest stars, and we can relive these memories right now. Let me just open to the first pages. (opens) Well will you look at that? It's our first two guest stars, Juliet Prowse and Connie Stevens!

(cut to the talk spot with Juliet Prowes and Teenager In Love)

Scooter: (turning the page) Oh, and here are Joel Grey and Ruth Buzzi!

(cut to Wilkomen, Joel Grey talking to Gonzo about figures of speech, and You're Just to Good to Be true).

Rowlf: Hi, Scooter.
Scooter: Hello, Rowlf.
Rowlf: Oh, you're looking through you're scrapbook, huh?
Scooter: yep, and I was just looking at these pages on Rita Moreno.
Rowlf: Oh, that's good. You know, thanks to her, our show won an emmy.

(cut to fever and the talk spot from that episode)

Scooter: There's plenty of great stuff in here. Oh, look, it's Jim nabors, Florence Henderson, Paul Williams, and Charles Aznavour!

(cut to Thank God I'm a Country Boy, Happy Togetehr, the panel discussion with Florence Henderson, Paul Williams being approached by the large monsters, the talk spot with paul Williams, and Dance The Old Fashioned way).

Mildred: You know, Scooter, Charles Aznavour sure was a great dancer.
Scooter: Oh, I'm sure he was, but now I've got to turn the page. (turns) Oh, it's harvey Korman and Leena Horne.
Gonzo: You know, I really enjoyed harvey's talk spot.

(cut to the talk spot with Harvey Korman, followed by Sing)

Kermit: So, Scooter, how is your reading of the scrapbook going?
Scooter: Oh, it's going fine, Kermit. Right now I'm looking at photos of Peter Ustinov and Bruce Forsyth.
Kermit: Well, let's look together.

Scooter: Oh, and here's Sandy Duncan. You know, I staged her opening number...

(cut to Nice Girl Like Me)

Miss Piggy: So, who are you looking at now?
Scooter: oh, Candace Bergen.
Miss Piggy: (jealously disgusted) oh....

Fozzie bear: You know, Scooter, that Avery Schriver sure is funny.
Scooter: I know.
Fozzie Bear: I did an act with him.
Scooter: I know.

Scooter: Oh, and here are Ben Vereen, Phyllis Diller, Vincent Price, and Valerie Harper.

Scooter: Now I'm near the end. Here are my pages of Twiggy, Ethel Merman, and Kaye Ballard.

Scooter: And now, I'm at the end.
Gonzo: (zooms in) Oh, boy! It's one of my favorites..
Scooter: yep, it's the Mummenshaz.

(cut to the talk spot with the Mummenshaz)

(Kermit, Fozzie, Miss Piggy, Floyd, Hilda, and Crazy Harry are all in Scooter's room)
Scooter: Well, that's the end of my season one guest star scrapbook.
Fozzie: Well, that was great.
Floyd: Yeah, it sure was.
Scooter: Well, now I've got to go and find my season two guest star scrap book.
Kermit: I'll help you find it.
Miss Piggy: So will moi.
Crazy Harry: I'll help you find it too.

Thanks for the compliment. Are there any guest star moments from season 1 (not counting guest star scenes from the openings or the goodnights) that any of you think should have been included?

Well, personally, I loved Mr. Bassman with Scooter in the Mummenshanz (sp?) episode. But other than that, I can't really think of anything...

I was asking about guest star moments. Mr. Bassman didn't include any guests.

I know these moments very well from my DVD set. I'd have to look at them closely to think of what others should have been included. It's great though.
