I remember that scene. When Herry saw John John in that military uniform. He said, "I guess they don't call you John John anymore." And (John) wanted to count to 20 with Herry again like old times. And so they did, and once they got to 20, they flashed back to John John being a kid again.mikebennidict said:well it was better than the stupid 35th aniversary special to begin with. the cast talked about being on the show and there were a couple of segment were a few kids who were on the show. 1 who was mentioned a 1 of the previous posts. John John who was in a few skit with the SS Muppets including a few with Harry such as were the 2 of them count to 20 and JJ counts in this deep voice between 11-20 and harry copies him. they were showing some of that incluing JJ who was probably about 20 in 1989. he was in the military at the time of special and Harry asked him about what he's doing and so forth. and if you rememebr shalla if that's how you spell her name and Fanny and after that Octapuss film was shown Kermit says that was a neat film and they hugged him. actually squeeze him. well after showing that 1 Kermit and the girls, they show Kermit dressed as he was when he did the SS news in Downtown NYC for something and who should come walking down the street? none other than Shalla & Fanny probably also in their early 20s. can't rememebr that exact words that were exchanged other than they said the Kermit they were S. and F. and at the end they squeezed him again. thney also showed the Mr. Hooper segment were Big Bird came to term of his passing. i'm sure it could of been better as always but you gotta admit this 1 was pretty good.
At first I was confused by the title "and Pam Arciero", over Telly while he was holding Natasha in his arm -- that's Kevin, isn't it? -- I thought. But now I think I get it, the caption was over Telly's right arm, operated by Pam.jeffkjoe said:What was really cool was that when they flashed each of the Muppets at the end, they had a little subtitle that said which Muppeteer was performing them.
For instance, when Ernie and Bert sang their verse of "Sing," the screen said: "Starring Jim Henson and Frank Oz" and then with Count, it said: "Jerry Nelson" and with Linda and Elmo it said: "Linda Bove and Kevin Clash" and so forth....
