I am, in fact, a wizard*.




* wizard: corruption of "wise-arse", meaning "one, who at bottom, is wise".

Thanks for that info, Anathena and Gorgon. The only trouble is now I won't be surprised when I see them. By the way, I think Gonzo blowing a balloon out of his horn was also used in the Rudolf Nuryev episode.

Guys,

A few years ago Nickolodeon UK went onto Digital and they had two hours extra, Whereas the normal (Cable) Nickolodeon UK ended at 7pm.

So after 7pm the Digital viewers would get an extra two hours of 'teen' shows. The first show to air was The Muppet Show, We didnt have Digital at the time but my Sister did.

So i went and watched a few episodes and i know for sure that #10 Harvey Korman had the original Season One opening intact.


What other differences where made in the Openings?

There was that Season One Gonzo in a Season Two opening, Who also appeared in the Lynda Carter ep.


any more?

see ya

I'll have to look at that again. The tape with the Linda Carter episode was the last one I got, but I didn't notice that Gonzo looked different in the opening.

Daffy,

Sorry, i ment actually in the episode.

Watch when Super Gonzo flies in, In the 'Flash! Bam! Alakazam!' number, And in the 'Goodnights'.


see ya
