The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years

[BlueAM]

I really, really LOVE the 30th Anniversary Special!

So, who are your favorite characters?
Mine are Yorick, Crazy Harry, the Count, Ernie and Bert, Fozzie, Grover, and Scooter!

And what are your favorite scenes?
Mine are:
Ernie taking off Bert's nose (It reminds me of when Daffy Duck's beak ends up on his head in the "Duck Season-Rabbit Season" cartoons.)
Crazy Harry causing an explosion as the Count makes his entrance
Yorick nibbling on Kermit's leg (or arm)
Jim paying for the bill at the end
All the crowd scenes
The Swedish Chef making a speech and Fozzie translating for him
The Two-Headed Monster interacting with Sweetums
And, most of all:
When the WHOLE gang sings "Rainbow Connection" (In my opinion, this is the best version I've ever seen of the song.)

And what are your favorite clips and montages?
Mine are:
The montage of guest stars (Zero Mostel with Sam, Steve Martin with Scooter, George Burns with Scooter and Gonzo, Elton John with the gang, etc.)
Rita Moreno singing "Fever" with Animal
Kermit and Ray Charles singing "Bein' Green"
The wedding scene from TMTM
The "Keep believing, keep pretending" scene from TMM
The monster montage with "There are millions of us who are ugly" playing
The eating and explosions montage to 1812 Overture
The clips from "The Muppets Go To the Movies"
And many, many more

Thanks!

Welp, for one thing, I just LOVE how the "Muppet music" segment ends on JANICE singin' "Rockin' Robin" (I consider it the "grand finale" of the montage ), and of course how she and Floyd get to introduce that segment.

Fozzie translating the Swedish Chef??? Did Odyssey edit that part?

Fozzie translating the Swedish Chef??? Did Odyssey edit that part?

I liked that part too. Especially the expression on Oscar's face while the Chef was talking. I never knew Fozzie was an expert on mock Swedish.

Fozzie can translate mock Swedish? That's pretty good, but let's give him a challenge. Let's see if he can translate for the Two-Headed Monster!

You LIKE the Muppet Music sequence, Byron? I know how much you LOVE Janice! I like the Muppet Music sequence, too, namely "Rubber Duckie", "Mahna Mahna", and Bobby Benson and the All-Baby Band, as well as the rest of this scene.

Do any of you guys like the Eating and Explosions sequence set to 1812 Overture?

Do any of you guys also like the part when Fozzie says that the Muppets have appeared on magazines and record albums and the montage of Muppety clips with "There's No Business Like Show Business" at the beginning?

What other characters did you like seeing in the crowd scenes? Mine are:

The Honkers
Bruno
Sherlock Hemlock
Annie Sue
Mulch
The Tiger
Droop
Louis Kazagger (sp?)
Miss Finch
The Dodos
The Food
And many, many, in fact a GREAT MANY others, as well!
