I'd say Bob Barker, Robin Williams, and Jim Carrey, and any other TV game show host!

Neil Innes, because not only is he a wonderful singer/songwriter/musician/all-around-charming-&-cuddly-kinda-guy, but he also has a fun song called "Eye Candy" that could totally lend itself to a big Muppety number. Part of it goes:

"...I was being zapped around from place to place
From World War II in color to outer space
Trying to save the future of the human race
I was the one with the lumps on his face

I was a TV chef, chopping up a courgette,
I was an emergency animal hospital vet
With my hand up some fluffy family pet
I was trapped inside my own TV set..."

I'd like to see serious actors,who have a sense of humor guest host with the Muppets.

My choices: Hugh Laurie,Christopher Meloni,Kyle Maclaughlan;for a start.

I'd also like to see past actors that have worked in Muppet projects on the show too,such as: Tim Curry,Peter Falk,Charles Grodin.

It would be an interesting idea to have past Muppet Show guest stars and have them rehost.I wonder how that would work.:smirk:

Tim Allen,Will Ferrel and the afore mentioned choices are a good idea.

I would like for Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Al Gore, Bob Dole, and John Kerry to all appear in an episode. April fools!

I really wish Connan would, though. That would be so awsome if he did!

I would LOVE to see Ricky Gervais as a guest host. That would be great. And Tim Curry would be awesome too. Although he isn't very relevant these days.
