My God, this was so good.

I heard a certain trumpeter got his chance to perform! I didn't see the performance!! .

Absolutely incredible performance, I'm completely blown away by Matt Vogel's Floyd, he's doing the character such justice!

 

[LipsGF4Life]

Yeah! Matt did an awesome job with Floyd! But I'm mostly happy to see Robin and Lips!

I didn't watch the whole show in its original broadcast (and it's actually not often I make an effort to catch Muppet appearances on shows I don't watch... It sort of feels weird that the only Late Night with Jimmy Fallon I've seen was his last), but I just now watched the opening monologue. During the portion where an audience member walks out, I feel they should have used Statler and Waldorf there.

Lips was there but he didn't play the trumpet (I don't think Zoot played the saxophone either).

That's been a recurring bit on his show with the same guy always walking out. Statler and Waldorf could have worked but it would kind of take away the origins of the bit.

Someone had asked about Jimmy unveiling the "Muppet Pipes" The first video is from the "Today Show" the second is from "NBC Nightly News" which shows Frank Oz seeing the pipes for the first time in years!

I noticed a few people point out that Rowlf and Sam weren't there. To be frank, I'd prefer to see Lips and Robin in this appearance, just because they're not very well known. Seeing them was a welcome surprise.

They were probably out in the sheep pasture. Oops. Wrong Ralph and Sam.

I love the song that they did, but would it have been cool if they did "Saying Goodbye" on Late Night, and then sang "Together Again" on the new Tonight Show?

Well, they missed out on "Goodbye," but the second part of your request may still be in the cards.

Then maybe they should have had them sitting with him.
