  • Holy sheeeet. That was epic. God(s) bless Jim Henson! 

  • I think the thing I like most about this pitch isn't that it's hilarious and creative, or the anchor who pretty much explodes with patrtiotism, but that this pitch forced Jim to stop making the jokes at his expense, just for a second, and made him pronounce how awesome he truly was. He was so modest and humble that he'd never do it unless he was forced to.

  • As epic as this is, it's hilarious that something that seemed so "American"...needed a British TV producer to put on the air. Long live Jim, Jerry...and Lord Lew, the man insane enough to bring this insane and brilliant show to air.

  • "Freaky, long-haired, dirty, cynical hippies will love our freaky, long-haired, cynical Muppets!" beautiful.

  • What is the use to block embedding? I hate it.

  • I think that this pitch makes it's point in over ten thousand ways.

  • He looks like Bill Gates.

  • Wow, the two combined are Jesus.

  • brilliant!!!!

  • Shame it's missing the punchline of Kermit's "What the hell was that all about?"

  • WTF? LOL

  • Oh gawd, when he mentioned egg head intellectuals, I was crimson. LOL

  • LOL that was absolutely amazing, especially the hippy-muppet joke

  • You know, if that guy had sun glasses, hed look like the dude from the Valentine Special

  • he is they just changed the puppet a little

  • That just ran right off the rails, didn't it? Ahahahah!

  • They cut the part out where Kermit comes out and asks "What the hell was that all about?" Excellent, though.

  • R.I.P. Jim

  • "Freaky,long-haired,dirty,cyni­cal hippies will love the freaky,long-haired,dirty,cynic­al Muppets!", great stuff! Not to mention the line before that about the college students. Jim Henson will always be considered by many including myself to be a purebred genius of comedy.

  • Jim Henson was a GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yes yes he was

  • That was beautiful.

  • What's the name of this song heard in the background?

  • It's "Battle Hymn of the Republic."

  • The Wilhousky version to be precise.

  • the other one is "There's no business like show business" from "Annie Get Your Gun"

  • anyone have the unedited version whith the "what the hell was that?" comment?

  • @.o God loves them too. I just know it. They did get a 40 mins slot didn't they?

  • seems prophetic now. doesn't it?

  • hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­ love it

  • Nice!
