It's the actual Muppets, and they're funn-ee!

I liked the one scene with Pepe on the streets of Hollywood! It was good. His punchline was great!!

Discussing the 40 YO Virgin film, and Statler gets embarassed and Waldorf begins to eye him for an answer, that look on Waldorf's face CRACKED ME UP!!

These just keep getting better and better!

I couldn't find the extra Pepe clip this time.

It is quite good...but...still not as funny as Statler and Waldorf were in TMS. Is there something wrong with Statler's Mouth? It seems to move strangely...

I think it's where the thumb goes into the bottom jaw. The left side of his mouth closes and the right side of it seems to droop down some. Or, maybe he had a stroke and we don't know about it?

I thought this one was quite funny. I miss "Hey A Movie," though. I loved the Lord of the Rings joke, even though it was at the expense of people like me. Also, I thought Pepe's joke about A Lot Like Love was very funny.

:boo: :sleep: :rolleyes:

I was hoping to see someone other than Pepe do the DVD, this is the first repeat character in 5 episodes

I thought the look Waldorf gave to Statler after he said "This movie is completely rediculous! NObody would be a virgin still at 40!" and Statler replies with "Heh.. right... I mean Yeah! Right!"
Hey, I was 26 when...um...yeah. *looks around* The look on Waldorf's face as he looks toward Statler was too much indeed. We need more cryptic references tho!

I didn't really understand the Lord of the Rings mention that Waldorf made though...
Because of the stereotype that geek guys into Lord of the Rings/Harry Potter/Star Wars/Stra Trek/D&D can't get girlfriends.

Ah ok thanks for clearing that up. I just can't understand Lord of the Rings being considered "geeky" whereas I CAN see how people would consider Star Wars/ Star Trek "geeky" (and I AM a big Star Wars fan lol)

Yeah, that was great puppetry, but I didn't need to know about Statler's intimate affair... what a gross visual. :grouchy:

Are we confessing? :wink:

The jokes we're sad, but the performances were great. Isn't it interesting that PePe wouldn't comment on "The Beauty Shop"? Guess they don't want to offend their old co-star!

Hey, I am a girl, and I think Star Wars, Star Trek, LOTR, etc. completely pwn. (But Uncle Owen, I was going to go to the tachi station and pick up power converters!) And geeks rock. Especially cool geeks. I was at a comic book store today and everyone there were cool nerds. It made me jealous. But they had SO MANY MUPPET FIGURES... it was drool worthy. But I'll talk about that somewhere else later.

Glad to see Pepe back! And the old bonus clip is back up! I don't like this music though, it's rather boring. Is it new, or from another movie? I don't recognise it.

Really dissapointed they didn't review THEIR OWN SHOW, though. Some good jokes could have come out of that. They mention Oz, but not the season sets. Pshaw.
