The Muppets

[Mud_Bogger6]

Who here used to watch the Muppet Show

[weeds]

i'm guilty, didn't all kids under ten watch it

[Mud_Bogger6]

Wouldn't know, but if you have Austar/Foxtel, channel 707 at midnight everyday

[weeds]

nah, i'm over it now, i don't think i will ever let the kids know about it

[Mud_Bogger6]

Why not???

[Vandermorph]

Sesame Street!!

i have a muppets dvd it has one of the greatest sketches by the muppets ever....

the merner-merna song... featuring animal.... its great after a few beers .... always gets a smile no matter how peed off you are... shame i havent got it at the moment... could do with watching it!

advice to any new migrants... dont buy a house over here until you have the money from the UK! (if thats where your coming from!) hence my need to watch it!

Anyways.... muppets = Legendary

Thanks

Steve

I drove a bus for a schoolies camp at Caloundra one year with a mate of mine. One of the leaders told me that us 2 oldies (late 40s and early 50s) were like the two hecklers from the Muppets.

I had to watch a couple of episodes when I came home to work out what he meant, guess what .... he was right! :arms:

[olbod]

I much preferred the Naked News !
They were real dolls.

[stusgonesailing]

The two hecklers were Statler & Waldorf.. another bloke and myself have been nicknamed after them. The rest of the staff reckon all we do in meetings is heckle. This picture is on my desktop

Ok, Next question, Who was/is your favourite character

Mine personally is Animal and chef

[Reads90]

Yeah used to watch it
And Animal was and still is my fav

[CraigE]

What do you mean used too???? Still do on Fox with the kids and on DVD when the kids hire or buy. Muppets from Space is one of the funniest movies out.
I like Pepe the prawn.

Bloody brilliant lineup...

[markyc]

Hah what a show!
Swedish Chef ('Hurdy-gurdy')& Beaker (assistant to scientist with specs but no eyes) are my favorites.

Big muppets fan....

I like em all...

its time to get things started...


the best sketch IMHO was the end where the 2 old guys started out with that was pretty good, well it was alright, it was ok, it wasnt that good, it was bad, it was terrible... boooooooo

[George130]

Love Beaker.
My older brother was known as Animal

[cewilson]

Loved the show, and animal was my favourite.

As for sesame street, my kids love that now!!!:(


But to test memories - who remembers Emmylou Harris with the Muppets???

[billnjim]

didn't everyone growing up in the 80's watch the muppets?, or was that a kiwi thing, used to get a laugh whenever i saw those signs saying 'police do air patrols of the area' and people would scribble 'pigs in spaace' underneath. i graduated to 'meet the feebles'; classic muppet style show, just don't show it to the kids.

[Cap]

Yes, muppets I used to watch.

Does anyone remember "The 6 Million Dollar Man"? Kinda sounds like a cheap rebuild by todays standards dont it! :D
