The Muppet Show

[Angry Ewok]

I bet I'm not the only one who loves the Muppet Show.

[mjkoehler]

Love the show and I have my kids loving it. I try to watch it with them and crack up still.

I have a bust of Rowlf sitting on my desk as well as a bobblehead Kermit.
This is what it looks like.

[mjkoehler]

Thats awesome.

[corey]

Indeed. My wife got it for me on the first Christmas that we had together.

I have season 1 on DVD and a ton of the movies. I'll pick up season 2 here shortly. I have t-shirts and some other memorabilia. I really enjoy everything Muppets.

This is a polystone bust by Sideshow Collectibles. They did about a dozen different characters, and retailed them at $50 (give or take depending on design)... Awesome piece and extremely cheap considering the quality. The best part is that its of a limited edition and it's a true collectible as most of Sideshow's stuff is... meaning you can get more than what you paid for on the secondary market. Awesome piece, Corey.

My only Muppet Memorabilia is an original vinyl of the Muppet Movie soundtrack, and of course I've got the first two seasons on DVD. The third one is already ordered, so I'll have that soon, too.

If I had the money to splurge, I would buy one of these...



It's a true-to-scale and puppet-accurate Kermit the frog. Fully pose able, too. Limited to 2,000 or so pieces, and totally sold out. Retailed at $200... so it was too pricey for me to snatch it when I had the chance.

There's a shitty picture I just took. You can see my signed Sloss Furnace poster up above the cluttered desk.
If you look hard enough, you can see Kermit's arm sticking out a little bit just above and to the left of Rowlf. Kermit is buried inder a Destro and Snake Eyes action figure that I bought a few weeks ago.

Joel did a great job with that Sloss Furnace poster. My first show ever, and it happened to be a My Morning Jacket concert.

Here's a link to one of my favorite Rowlf bits.

There's also my Alabama state flag hat with a Crimson Tide hat under it.
Roll Tide!

Lots of love for The Muppet Show!!!
Fav guest stars? I'm going to have to go with Star Wars (Luke, C3PO & R2!)

[Angry Ewok]

Star Wars Cast and Elton John are tied for first place, I think.

My favourite scene was when the greatest drummer ever, Buddy Rich, dueled with Animal. Rich's solo is an extremely exciting thing to watch, and Animal does ok too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56sZOUPegUw

The memories that this brings back! Amazing clip!

All of my true friends know that I cannot watch the Mahna Mahna song without laughing until I cry. I literally cry, I laugh so hard.

Thanks Brad. Now I have that stuck in my head. *walks away whistling*

GOD! MAKE IT STOP! Ah much better. Oh and thanks for using the far superior Ricky Gervais version of the Office.
