Will any former Muppet performers return to the show for the 50th anniversary?

[Pig'sSaysAdios]

Maria has long confirmed that she'll be returning for this occasion.

She says she'll come back if the producers ask her to.

Ah, I must have overlooked that detail.

Ah, I must have overlooked that detail.

But hopefully they do. If not, I won't be too disappointed though, as long as I enjoy what the writers have planned.

Hopefully some of the other cast members besides Bob, Luis, and Gordon will be returning.

I'd like to see Linda Bove return or maybe Ruth Buzzi.

I can see Ruth Buzzi making a possible cameo appearance for the 50th anniversary, but who knows the status of Linda Bove and whether or not they can get her and Barkley back together again for the 50th anniversary ?

 

[Daffyfan4ever]

Well, they should. I know Barkley was on the show for some time after Linda left, so I'm sure he'd want to see his mistress. Come to think of it, it probably would be the same deal with Wolfgang and Uncle Wally or Odie and Lyman. Lol.

I'd love to see Ruthie again, but unfortunately I think she's retired and living in Texas.

So it was recently reported that Fran Brill stepped out of retirement to attend the retirement of Caroll Spinney, the man behind and . While that is a touching moment to see...it does give me a bit of hope that maybe they can convince her to make a cameo appearance via Season 50, right ?

We'll see what happens.
