The Muppaphone

[Skye]

It's so weird because when I was younger, I always thought Marvin Suggs was hilarious with his Muppaphones! But now that I'm a little bit older, I really feel bad for the poor, cute little things, lol. They really are adorable!

I love 'em all, though. And I have to admit, they do make some fun music!

Was this a Monty Python movie, or was it from the show? I have all the episodes of 'Flying Circus' somewhere, but don't remember having seen that. Of course, I always thought John Cleese was doing a take off of the Parrot Sketch when he was on TMS, during the 'Pigs in Space' bit. ('How'd you like to be an ex-parrot?') To me that simply screamed Monty Python.

Yuppers. That was indeed based on the ex-parrot sketch from Monty Python. John Cleese actually co-wrote that episode of The Muppet Show.

Hehehe, no wonder it looked and sounded so familiar. That is one of my favorite Pigs In Space bits, though. Really funny stuff.

On another note, I'll have to watch the Gilda Radner episode again cause I missed that. But, anyone who knows me, knows that I miss a lot.
