There's somebody underneath Kermit and Fozzie

At the beginning of Great Performances: The World of Jim Henson, there is a clip where Fozzie tells Kermit that somebody is underneath him, and then Fozzie notices somebody (with a beard) underneath Kermit as well.

Where does this clip come from?

It's from the 1980 PBS Special "Here Come The Puppets!" Hosted by Jim Henson and Kermit.

I think I remember seeing that! Vaguely though, I wish these old specials would find their way to DVD.

It would be great if Here Comes the Puppets was released on DVD. I wonder who owns the rights to that special. It features many different puppets from different creators and companies, so whoever releases it would probably have to pay residuals to at least The Muppets Holding Company and Sesame Workshop, and probably other companies.

Well it would be a mix, hence Oscar the Grouch sings "I Love Trash" with some Muppet Monsters at the end of the special. Its a bizzare crossover.
