And the episode when they talked about Jim Henson dying and it was the first time any of the puppets heard that there was people underneath them and they all looked down in surprise. A tear jerker with a laugh in the middle.

But I think my favourite skit involved a bunch of woodland creatures singing 'For What It's Worth' (Buffalo Springfield) hiding from redneck hunters, hootin' and hollerin' and firing their guns indiscriminately. It was very powerful, given the lyrics. ("There's a man with a gun over there, Tellin' me I got to beware.") I didn't see the episode when they discussed Jum Henson's death. That would have destroyed me. _________________________ Editor: Movies/Celebrities/Crosswords "To insult someone we call him 'bestial'.

Beaker and Animal, the Swedish Chef -it's so hard to pick out who was the best, when it was all such fine stuff. It's a shame kids aren't being treated to watching these guys anymore. The Muppet Show was pure, rich creativity at it's best - no computers, no high tech stuff. Just feathers, felt, glue and raw unbridled imagination. _________________________ A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is just putting on its shoes - Mark Twain

Have spent many hours watching the Muppet Show but it seems like such a long time ago.... _________________________ "If Life Were Easy Where Would All The Adventure Be?"

Not much wrong with that show! _________________________ "A bookstore is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking." ~ Jerry Seinfeld

Favorite show was with Mark Hamill Darth Nader giggle _________________________ Forum Moderator: Useful Tips & Tricks, Movies & Television, Music Cellar Senior Crossword Editor
