@DocWyldeCard Doc. Jim Henson is dead. bringing it back (again) would be like bringing back a zombie. It may be similar, but the soul would be missing.
But hey this is pretty good for "bringing back the Muppet Show." I think the Muppet Show could be brought back if they got better writers, I mean the Muppets (2011) was hilarious and had great comedic timing, unlike Studio DC which was... Well...
@QIsForK12 Muppets Tonight also isn't THAT bad but its nowhere near as good as the original show. The jokes are a little more stale, the skits aren't as amusing, etc. Plus that was when they were trying out what Brian Henson era characters worked and what characters didn't. Pepe and Bobo were pretty much the only survivors.
@AngelusDlion It's Steve Whitmire performing him. It's said Jim personally chose Steve to continue with Kermit. I think he's doing a great job myself, seeing as he does a few other guys too.
@theperfectone121212 It's just me being a grumpy old man, don't take it personally.
and please, I did not mean it was bad. Just different. Jim was one of a kind and I know I would be unable to fill his shoes myself, and wouldn't even want to try.
@AngelusDlion I won't take it to offense, I like both Jim and Steve, but Jim's sounder more natural, because his regular voice was similar to Kermit's. Plus his attitude was a bit more frantic. Steve isn't bad either, It's like you said, he's different, in more ways than one.
@collgoff and that makes me sad. That means I was 14 when Jim died. And I still remember it like it was yesterday. I am not ashamed to admit that I cried.
Way back in 1966 I appeared on this very stage at the old Hollywood palace TV show. And it was so sucuessful it took them thirty-five years to invite me back.
Whoever is doing Rowlf's voice at the beggining of this segment, is doing a hell of a good job. Sounds just like Jim Henson's Rowlf. Keep up the good work!
whoever does the muppets now adays should seriously consider doing another muppet show. it would do so good! they put on utube the bohemian rhapsody thing with the muppets and it got likee 3 million views in a matter of days! PPL WANNA SEE THE MUPPETS!
Yes there was unfortunatly. It was either take offthe entire video ortake out Mahna Mahna. Its a shame but i had to do it as the music was owned by Warner who are notorious for taking down videos due to music.
What year was this on?
