I mean at the same time that Statler and Waldorf were on. I assume that Statler and Waldorf were in a balcony or something and that is why Steve and Dave didn't switch off to do them, which is actually nice for a live show.

I enjoy it. It's something different and it puts their years of heckling to somewhat constructive use.

Just watched the 2 newest episodes, great fun!

Especially loved the appearance of Luncheon Counter Monster and a Muppet bunny!

Good stuff.

YES! That was quite the cool little obscure cameo...are they rebuilding some of the older lesser known characters? Hopefully we see more TMS cameos soon.

I don't know if it's just me, but it seems Statler and Waldorf got rebuilt and it's not pretty. But Sam does make an appearance which i liked. I still say this guy does an amazing Sam. Oh, and Scooter's head was used on a puppet. This show wasn't too bad, but I'm not liking the new puppets designs.

Nope, not just you unfortunately. Waldorf's face is a mess! His eyes are rotated inward, and did he get more bags under them too? Statler looked fine though, imo.

Sam was great!! And yeah, was cool to see a Scooter head on that little concession dude.

I loved Statler's little film noir bit, good stuff.

OOH!!! I LOVED the latest ep.!! SAM IS AWESOME!! Perfect voice! Perfect character! PERFECT! And I disagree, I think Statler's head looks swolen and Waldorf looks fine. :smirk:

That one Muppet in the concession stand music number DID look a lot like Scooter. And it was great to see Sam the Eagle there!

Although I don't think the new puppets for Statler and Waldorf are very good.

This is why Disney should have paid what the creature shop wanted.
