The Muppets Show Intro

[Chosenviper]

Life's A Happy Song when there's someone by your side to sing along!

[metalhead317]

18 people need to be rocketed into the sun.

[TheJawarpower]

"fuck the simpsons"? get the fuck outta here with that shit faggot.

[AvEryBadApPLe]

This, the Incredible Hulk cartoon intro from the 80's and the Benny Hill theme are stuck in my head. lol

[louisaemily100]

Me

[178MrKings]

who saw the muppets movie

[theblackjet]

Anyone know who those guys in the opening shot are? Right after Kermit introduces the show. There's a big blue guy and two guys who look like elmo on steroids. I don't remember them from the show who are they?

[jamesbrown227]

13 now always wasched this as a kid



[Michaelscoolio]

Both the Muppets and John Cleese were such a big part of my childhood. I love them so much and get nostalgic just surfing youtube for vids of them. I found a good stash of John Cleese at the snapsnap channel.

[Abiboo21]

0:51 perfect!!!!

[sexpen]

<3

[DarkC12ow]

love the muppets

[MrJuicypineapple]

hahaha the best is 0:50 !! so cute!

[MrWambo1996]

Yoda should be guest star !!! Who agrees ?

[Offthbadan]

Friday night at 7:30 pm I believe. 8:00 pm the Dukes of Hazzard , then Dallas. It's been 30 plus years but I think I still remember the lineup. I was 11 or 12 and the chef would crack me up.

[bambina320]

omg i loved this show so much when i was little.

[SusannaRM9]

Love u

[kittycat5498]

i love the muppets

[binturong1000]

I think I mised this one who was Mr. Jhon Clease?

[ocir988]

"well, they'll never get things started" LOL

[WikitronNinja]

Just got the season one dvd. I have never heard of any of the gest stars.

[frynross1]

@WikitronNinja yeah, season one was made up of friends of the creators that were in show business. It wasn't until season two that they got some big names (like Elton John)

[EddieTheFishReturns]

Oh my word, it's Clohn Jeese!

[Dadge42]

good show; tv has gone steadily downhill especially in children's programming, trying to dumb them down and keep them dumb.

[SgtHydra]

@Dadge42 No kidding.

90% of what's on right now is completely unwatchable unless you're a vegetable.

[KatieAnn2012]

AHHH... I LOVE THE MUPPETS!

[Salieri1760]

Plus John Cleese

Damn I love that guy

[Salieri1760]

They sold an entire DVD collection of this show! Wonder if they still have some in stock

[Justypowatorek]

Just amazing!

[mcrrocks80]

its the Muppet show! with our very special guest star miranda cosgrove wa!!!!

[zonerboi22]

i only watch the opening segment just to see what gonzo blows out at the end...this time that horn actually worked..it was probably the only time! i had to applaud with the audience..lol

[ScrubmanLowell]

Turns out those two old geysers @ 0:36 aren't alone. There are actually 12 of them!

[coolwatters]

CLASSIC! Wow, it is amazing how some things like this can bring back so many memories and give me warm and fuzzies! Thanks for posting!

[poodle720]

I want this song to begin my funeral when i've gone to the great gig in the sky

[MackFalzone]

His trumpet actually worked for once!

[nillawafers96]

This brings back so many good childhood memories. Yay!

[kdondrub]

The Muppet Show Lyrics (1)

It's the Muppet Show with our Very Special Guest Star, ...

It's time to play the music

It's time to light the lights

t's time to meet the Muppets on the Muppet Show tonight.

It's time to put on makeup

It's time to dress up right

It's time to raise the curtain on the Muppet Show tonight.

[Asxhmoula]

Man, I wish I was just a little older when the Muppet Show was on so I could get the most out of it. I wonder what the older folks thought of it back then...

[FanofKaren]

Loved the Swedish Chef on this show.

[OEKCVB]

Say what you want but this show was awesome clean, funny and Hensen and his family God bless you and thxs for all of the years of laughter!!! Jim RIP a true wonderful spirit thank you

[PeteTehBeastDX]

I remember one episode when fozzie tries to cut someone in half and got electrocuted. This sure brings back memories I used to watch that on Nickelodeon

[alslevie1986]

One of the best ones ever was on the start of Rocky 3,Sylvester Stallone appeared on the Muppet show as Rocky Balboa.

[LongIslandHobbyist]

They gotta bring this back to tv man I used to love the old grumps in the balcony level lol

[murfy50]

ja ja ja wonderful, i love the 70´s and 80´s

[JFredUK]

This was considered top-notch entertainment back in the 70's. And, I still think it's good, honest entertainment for younger, (or not so young), viewers. So, it was rather shocking to learn that this sort of show is viewed by some youngsters, nowadays, as being, 'lame', 'stupid', and, 'for babies to watch..'

Oh well, you can't win 'em all.

[KatzenImNebel]

Love it!

[ohhellnoyoudidnt]

gonzo finally got it right at the end.

[MrNodzilla]

Fuck the Simpsons!

Muppets,best show ever!

RIP Jim Henson,genius.

[duccool]

wat bist du denn für ein opfer simpsons the best shit baby like opfer

[MrNodzilla]

@duccool , VOTT ?????

[Benstudio13]

@MrNodzilla The Simpsons and the Muppets are two completely different franchises. Why you even thought of bringing up the Simpsons is a mystery to me.

[MrNodzilla]

@Benstudio13 .Burgerking and Mcdonalds are two completely different franchises as is Star Wars and Star Trek,my point being that although one is animation and the other puppetry,they both target the same demographic and both come under the guise of family entertainment.

[theknack101]

@MrNodzilla

Was that necessary?

[MrNodzilla]

@theknack101 .You've lost me,what are you on about,was what necessary?

[theknack101]

@MrNodzilla

"fuck simpsons"

Why cant they both be good?

[MrNodzilla]

@theknack101 .I'm not saying the Simpsons weren't any good but that ship has sailed,the Simpsons are a shadow of it's former self.

[theknack101]

@MrNodzilla

Muppets are exactly relevant now either.

Even the movie realizes that

[13dutchdennis13]

@MrNodzilla muppets show nr1 and the simpsons nr2

[debfan74]

i still love this!!!! I am 35 and can recall the lyrics lol!!

[suricologa]

@debfan74

[Hermyoni33]

This is definitely the shorter intro.

[SIRIAN740]

Fantastic!

[dp0p]

Love you Muppets!

Love you Jim Henson, God bless you!

[LoveHurts1712]

what a funny show

[TheFlintlockwood]

LOL i loved this tone 0:51

[FORTY848]

@TheFlintlockwood lol yeah same, best sound ever

[AnastaciaJaycins]

The Muppets Aspire me Then & NOW in my everyday life. GOD BLESS Jim Henson!

[flembagg966]

God help me, I LOVED THIS STUFF!!!

[zantetsuken1986]

Lol, Gonzo finally got the Trumpet to play a tune. I remeber it was always a complete fail for him.

[Yoshiboy510]

@zantetsuken1986 I remember Kermit blowing the trumpet before Gonzo even tried to. :D

[zantetsuken1986]

Lol, those where the days.

[jjay5512]

its time to get things started, theyll never get this started, time to get it started

[BandGeek3430]

is that a bass saxophone

[ziggy72170]

Love those Chicken's ! they'd always be back-stage.. Kermit would say ; Ladies ,Ladies, please get ready .

[bananachip33]

Muppets are great.

On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, how awesome is the muppet show?

I would say ∞/10. (that little thing means infinity, btw. Just in case you didn't know)

Hmm, december 1997? I was... -19 years old.

The muppets and Animaniacs were definitely the best programmes ever made.

[mudra136]

in 1997 i was 10 lol

[econtg]

First time I saw this, really scared me. I was 6 o 7 yrs old.

[magicalgirl]

Love the show, love the theme, love the clip!

[bulitboy]

I love the comments. I have a friend tell me, he hated muppet show. I don't see how anyone could not like Muppets. When I was young I got to go see the Muppets at a San Diego Museum, and I had Kermit and Animal.

[TelephoneRock4ever]

Your friend hated the Muppet Show? I practically grew up with the Muppets, both from Sesame Street and the Muppet Show! How can people NOT love the Muppets?!

By the way, very catchy and bouncy theme song! I've loved Gonzo.

[MrJtiger]

I Love the whole song!!

[slashudson1987]

I love the trumpet at the end ahhahahaha

[Terragen]

First show I ever loved. I grew up on this and I cried every time it ended, and I had to wait a WEEK for the next episode! A WEEK was like half my life at that point!

[nataschakl]

I TOTALY understand what you're saying....must lough right now, but it was like a tragedy at the time....:) :)

[SimonCowellrecommend]

Like this? Type: 'The Muppets On Any Other Day'

[redfox409]

How many muppets are there just before gonzo shows up inside the o with the horn?

[agent4051]

i miss being a kid

[redbear3100]

Addition to that statement: I miss being a kid.....back then.

[DanysSahne]

Wohoooo

[mattfido1]

this used to be the highlight of sunday evening

[philipkeaveney777]

Why didn't gonzo blow up??? Boooo

[noaTr]

the horn in the end is killing me!!!!! :)

[Darklordgroup]

I realy loved this show

[garfield501]

Haha, love this show

[apodino]

Holy Cow. Gonzo's horn worked right for once without anything funny.

[1Burninhouse1]

Nothing beats The Muppet Show !!

[binturong1000]

@1Burninhouse1  Why are there not full episodes of the muppets on a youtube?

[Dernogg13231323]

@1Burninhouse1 except rock.

[FanPortal2]

@1Burninhouse1 Amen to that!

[Maxiethe1]

@1Burninhouse1 It's the most sensational , inspirational , celebrational , muppetational. This is what we call the Muppet Show!!!!
