Beaker:

5:30 AM?

Ya got me beat. The latest I've done here is around 4-ish AM.

Does the majority of the intended audience for the special sit up at 4 AM writing about it? Ha! I'll bet not even 1% do.

We are the HARDCORE :big_grin:

just because scooter had a lampshade on his head doesn't mean he was drunk, incidentally...it's all in your perception...just like animal was chugging egg nog...whether it had rum in it is up to the viewer to decide. Neither were stumbling around or slurring their speech or anything that would suggest to me that they were loaded...

In the Great Muppet Caper, Kermit, Piggy, and Fozzie all drink champagne, and we've seen Kermit and Piggy drinking the finest wine in Idaho, and there have been plenty others.

I've never even tasted alcohol, and I haven't been offended by it.

And Animal was drinking Egg Nog.

And if Scooter just came out of a decade-long coma, he deserves to get lit.

Quinnnnnnnnn
i second that scooter comment.

I walk around with lampshades on my head occasionally... :big_grin:

Anyway, I'm sorry for takin' this all way too seriously. Muppets have been like this in other family shows and I never complained, in fact I found it funny. Like in Muppets Tonight!

Rizzo to his nephew and niece/Bobo to Cindy Crawford:"That's a nice set of balloons ya got there. Maybe you'll let me play with them later."

"I suppose this is a bloodsucking basskisser!" "Let's flip off the camera."

Seymour: "I wish I knew about Prince's changes before I ruined these expensive leather pants!"

Kermit: "My mood ring has turned all mellow yellow."
Bunsen: "So have my bippies!"

Rizzo: "I want a steel butt by Friday."

Andy and Randy referring to Sandra Bullock as "Sandra Buttocks"

Phil van Neuter, drunk: "Eggie noggie, eggie noggie, eggie noggie..." "YOU FREELOANERS!"

Spamela Hamderson's lifeguard outfit (talk about boobage jokes!)

Grouper on laughing gas

Gilbert Gotfried's guest appearance. "Have I ever shown you my collection of war photography? It's called 'Isn't It Gross'. I'll show you while we eat. Look at this guy, he doesn't even look human anymore!" "UNDERPANTS! I'M STANDING HERE IN MY UNDERPANTS!" (seriously, I LOVE that dude!)

hehe..I plead the fifth...

anyway, even if they were drunk,I dont' care...c'mon, I'm drunk all the time...but I'm saying that there's no hard evidence, and I doubt a kid would care/worry about it...

Sidcrowe, were not gonan talk about being up at 5:30 am^_^

Second, how could I have forgotten...there is a milion examples of Muppet consuming alcohol! I think though usually its in an adult, good tatse way. I mean there was a brand of hard liquour that had Cookie Monster on it some decades back! Now if the Muppets started smoking I'd be pretty upset to say the least.

Btw Quinn, youve *never* tasted alcohol? You must have taken cough syrup, and that stuff is more closer to bar alcohol then a lot of the watered down drinks they serve.

Also lets not kid ourselves...wearing lampshades, beer bonging egg nog? It's all drunken party merryment...I think its interesting how people try to look around the obvious. I dont think JHC had to have a popup video dialogue every time something obvious came up.
