Tell me, which seemed more memorable to you? The "Temptation" Number performed by Octopusses or The "Temptation" Number performed by the Muppet Glee Club?

Quick question, what's that?
For a change, he's actually making sense. He's asking which version of the song "Temptation" (sung on two different eps. of TMS) do we prefer - the Muppet Glee Club version (from Juliet Prowse) or the version sung/drummed by the three Octopi (from the James Coburn).

Oh, Muppet GLee Club by far! It's just so funny, and Miss Piggy's voice there is scary and deliciously hilarious!!! Plus the "Dum, dahdahdah, dum, dahdahdah's" going on are laugh-out-loud funny.

I've never seen the other version, but I am sure that Muppet Glee Club will remain my favorite as it had the biggest impact on me. Not only is the pre-song dialogue hilarious ("And when I wave the stick, I would like to HEAR SOMETHING!") but to me, it was the first sketch that really showed the beginnings of Piggy as we know her today.

(Oh yeah, and can't forget about the Dave cameo.)
