"The Best of The Muppets from The Muppet Show"

[minor muppetz]

Minor Muppetz, did you forget to put "Happy Wanderer" on the Season Four DVD you posted? It's a lot funnier than "Why Can't We Be Friends". "Happy Wanderer" have just pigs, as "Why Can't We Be Friends" have just whatnot muppets.

Actually, Why Can't We Be Friends? is my favorite segment from the John Denver episode. The rest of the show is a bit bland to me. Not really bad, but not really my favorites. So I did not forget The Happy Wanderer. It's not something I ever think about when thinking up contents for compilations. If you've read any of the compilation video fgan fictiosn that I have written, you might notice that I've never included this sketch in any of those compilations.

Of course, in the various ideas I've included, I have listed segments that aren't neccessarily my favorites. Some of my least favorites that I have included include Ram-a-ram-a-ding-dong, Hawian War Chant, A Four-Legged friend, Swine lake, Somethings Missing, and Dance! They're not bad, but not stuff I'd put oin a top ten favorites list.

It's okay if you like it. You can put it in your own list. I'm not going to tell you to include my favorites that you excluded, or tell you to replace any of my least favorites with my favorites.

The Happy Wanderer is MY favorite segment from the John Denver episode.

The Happy Wanderer is MY favorite segment from the John Denver episode.

It is my favourite too Dil but let's not argue the point with minor muppetz. Everybody is an individual and we don't always agree. Let's just agree to disagree in some cases such as this and stay friends in our discussions
