The Muppet Show - S3 E17 P3/3 - Spike Milligan

[NaiTaiDai]

A pleasant evening.

Now an APAULLING EVENING!!

Now, comedy weather!

[Capng123]

Oh the bitter irony of that closing number considering how things turned out...

Also Spike at 00:44 my god... so funny... "Now... WHO... CAME... FIRST!?!? Answer!!"

6:55

(Electric Mayhem hears "Small World" still playing)

THE SHOW MUST GO ON!!!!

[MollyKoenigStarGleek]

Disneyland is definitely my favorite country. . . right after Hollywood Land.

[cainster]

Hahaha, poor Jim Henson gets a pillow to the face and we don't even get to see his reaction. I bet he had trouble keeping Kermit serious.

[cainster]

I know that they did it in takes, but I wonder how many puppeteers it took to create the entire 'Small World' segment. Looks like they had the whole "cast" out for it; I count at least 15 individual puppets.

[sha11235]

I always thought he was a cuckoo, especially in the window sketch.

[GuardianOfMoon]

Was this a hint to the horrific deal of Disney buying the Muppets?

0:19-2:26

[AnomalyINC]

Haha, just look at poor Sam as the credits roll. He just knows Milligan is around there somewhere.

Gotta love that bird.

[TheWarnerSister]

Only this show could call Disneyland a country and be taken seriously. XD

[timdaughte]

Statler and Waldorf obviously do know talent when they see it.  Spike rules.

[shannon1234550]

The Muppets rocked, for all age groups! Too bad nothing ever really succeeded in replacing them.

[futuremadonna6]

no international muppet show could be complete without the annoying song, it's a small world. :P

[monomonster]

According to what I have heard , Spike was going through a manic phase during to the filming of this episode. He suffered from maniac-depression through most of his life.

[LooneyTunerIan]

It's a Small World - 3:38

[LooneyTunerIan]

IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL...

IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL...

IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL...

IT'S A SMALL SMALL WORLD...

Monotinous, isn't it?

[juntaothesecond]

say, does anybody recognize that song i heard in the credits?

[LooneyTunerIan]

@juntaothesecond It's A Small World After All is the name of the song

[dharmaseed]

Boomerang 'phssssshhh'?!?! LMAO

[EalaDubh]

This is anarchic even by Spike's standards.

[793lavalightening]

oh my gosh! stalter and waldorf actually liked something on the muppet show

[RedaFox1]

@793lavalightening

its the end of the world!!!!!

[dharmaseed]

@793lavalightening Question was, could they figure out what they liked about it?

[Orenotter]

@dharmaseed

I think it was that the song annoyed Kermit.

[LooneyTunerIan]

@793lavalightening Or maybe they got the song stuck in their heads! XD

I love the Muppet Show, but this really wasn't a good episode. I don't know who this Spike Milligan guy is, but all he does is act like a moron, and it's not very funny at all. But then again, like any show, sometimes you get really awesome guests, and other times you're scraping the bottom of the barrel. I guess you work with what you've got, right?

[SamHouldsworth]

@obliviousfafnir01 Spike Milligan is a comedic genius! The Monty Pythons have said that Spike influenced their writing and he's famous in British comedy for the Goon show where Peter Sellers (famous for the pink panther films) worked along side him. I agree that he wasn't at his best here though but it wasn't really his style. He couldn't show his full potential in this either as he only got small moments to perform. He's better with a live audience as well :-)

[obliviousfafnir01]

@SamHouldsworth Ah. Alrighty then. I'll have to look up some other clips of him then.

[pmyodb1]

LMAO@ the fact that for one he's tryin to get Sam the Eagle PLUS @ the end he throws a pillow @ Kermit cause he can't get the folks to shut up while he's tryin to take a nap......CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!

[grizabella626]

Wow! XD So much politically incorrectness!

[WWEChampion16]

Love the last performance.

[JuddonPlatoon]

Cool episode
