those monsters were freaky. I would have been scared as a kid.

[cyberspektor7]

Listen sonny!

[nigelstephen]

I meant fewer frogs of course!

[nigelstephen]

Strictly speaking there are FEWER monsters than frogs Kermit! You Americans and your English eh?!

[llllllllllll99999999]

@ZNKChannel JEJ was the voice of Darth Vader.

[ZNKChannel]

James Earl Jones... name sounds familiar, but doesn't ring a bell. Did he ever have any Muppet and/or Disney experience?

[TherealRNO]

@ZNKChannel: Uncle Remus (Song of the South) & Darth Vader (Star Wars). XD

[ZNKChannel]

@TherealRNO Oh, yeah! Now I remember! He also did Mufasa in The Lion King! But I didn't know that he did Uncle Remus. I thought that was someone named James Basket or something like that name.

[TherealRNO]

@TherealRNO: It was James Basket, but the way he sang and performed was James Earl Jones-esque. In fact, watch later clips of James Earl Jones (for instance, American Legends) and you'll notice a striking resemblance between the two persons. Perhaps they'll really the same guy with a name change, since Basket was banned from Song of the South's release due to the prejudice of the times, whilst Jones is considered a part of Americana.

[HCShannon]

@TherealRNO Also when SOTS was released in 1948, and James Earl Jones was only 17 at that time!

[TherealRNO]

@HCShannon: That too.

[CadillacL]

COOKIE MONSTER!

[SnugglySara]

Gosh, they're trippin, man!

[jzerony]

Gee... when the monsters start arriving they play that scary music.... you'd think that'd scare kids, eh?? heh heh

[swingindoorspro]

lol "Now not a peep outta you, sonny!"

[yaziyo]

Kermit was about to get rolled there

[1990babyface]

Batman? When was he on Sesame Street?

[Hondo20132]

That 'crossing the street' skit.

[TherealRNO]

@1990babyface: Think Adam West. XD

[MIKECNW]

Kermit was a regular so why did Ernie say he was a guest?

[CDCB2]

It probably wasn't yet decided whether or not he'd be a guest.
