[swampfire3000]

OH CRAP! NOT kermi.Ahh..CHOO! *turns into chicken,looks at himself* you've got to be kidding me.

[MollyKoenigStarGleek]

Heck YES Gonzo is hitting on Kermit!

[darijoe]

Why did the band miraculously turn back into normal at 7:22??

[TeamRocketRockin]

@darijoe Disney had to do some plastering work; being the lazy bums they usually are, they use the exact same scene for every closing logo they covered up on the set. No exceptions. No refilming.

0 dislikes. Apparently everyone knows this is good.

[AingealGrl]

So that's how he got the job on Robin Hood. He had cluckitis!

[Canti654]

What I'd give to be sitting in on the writing table when they were brainstorming this episode.

"What kind of sub plot can we have running for this one?"

*a few moments of silence*

"I know! Everyone starts turning into chickens! We can call it Cluckitis!"

Pop Goes The Weasel.

[mohinderbauer]

I wonder what was the budget to produce an episode.

[NaiTaiDai]

@mohinderbauer For THIS episode? What else? CHICKEN FEED! *dies laughing*

[SmashtasmLink]

Bet you were expecting chickens!

[RedaFox1]

maybe it's gonzo's love for chickens that prevents him from turning into a chicken......although Gonzo would love to be one himself..

[RedaFox1]

I wonder if gonzo is immune to cluckitis?

[GINOFUMO829]

haha kermit turned into a chicken, but he still has his green collar

[Deathproofbabe]

No one else think it's funny that Roger Miller also played a rooser in Disney's Robin Hood? :P

[ZNKChannel]

@Deathproofbabe That's what he meant by saying he had Cluckitus before!

[Stephen10528]

How do they get the muppets to look like they're turning into chickens?

[LadyDeirdre]

@Stephen10528 By using a cross-fade. That means that they fade out on the set with the regular muppet, fade in on the same set with a chicken muppet, and overlap the footage in editing.

[historyfreakfroman]

This episode is full of bad yolks!!!

[Stephen10528]

Why wasn't the guy at the very end a chicken?

[Stephen10528]

My favorite episode of the Muppet Show! So glad to have found it on you tube!

[mrtelevision]

Rowlf turns into a Chicken at 0:12

[cmulwee001]

No "King Of The Road"? You'd think Roger would've performed his signature song on The Muppet Show. Still, a hilarious episode!

[slacker4rent]

startet at 2:22

[MichaelBrookham]

Notice that at the beginning of this clip when Rowlf is playing the piano, he sneezes and turns into one chicken. At the end, in the closing credits, there are two chickens playing the piano.

[Stephen10528]

@MichaelBrookham So Rowlf must be playing the piano w/ another chicken.

[damonika09]

Leave it to Statler and Waldorf to be the opposite of the running gag! XD

[simplecoffee]

"Pappy is a pistol, I'm a son of a gun" XD

[NaiTaiDai]

I wonder if Gonzo was immune to Cluckitis or if he already had it.

This kind of remind anyone else of chickenpox?

[dorourke105]

ACHOO! (turns into a chicken) Oh no it's contagious

[Dracorex13]

Oh god, seeing the Statler and Waldorf possums made me laugh until I cried.

[muppetfan33]

@Dracorex13 Possums don't go "woof woof," do they?

[lawoma]

what kind of animals were W&S turned into?

[mrtelevision]

Possums

[Stephen10528]

@lawoma I found a message on google once saying they were mongooses.

[Zerovarth]

lol i did expect chickens

[Zwiezwerg92]

They were right - i expected chickens :)

[mylovelydame21]

LOL That is a man that enjoys his work. I don't know how long I could've kept a straight face.

[Julian9ehp]

It's endearing that Mr. Miller keeps on bursting into laughter at the Muppets all around him.
