Gomer Pyle!

I think I can explain the whole Scooter-continuity thing for anyone who makes another comment about it.

The first two episodes were merely pilot episodes for the show. As the first season started airing, these two pilot episodes were heavily edited to match up with the final product of the show. Scooter wasn't actually IN the first episode, but rather, all his scenes were plastered in to replace some deleted material. (see reply)

[TeamRocketRockin]

@TeamRocketRockin By the time the first episode aired, most of the other episodes were already released, and as such, Scooter was already introduced in the 6th episode. Although the continuity of the show isn't entirely accurate, CBS swerved away from this problem by airing episodes out-of-order. I know this doesn't explain Scooter's appearance in Episode 4, but again, released out of order. Space-time annihilation narrrowly avoided. THERE!

4:49 And now, an episode of House

[MollyKoenigStarGleek]

Dr. Teeth is one of my favorites! I wish Jim Henson had chosen to feature him more.

[Shancus32796]

i remember when i asked my mom what scooter's purpose in the show was she said "he's a go for" and i said the EXACT things kermit said xD

[WheehW]

muppets continuity debate

[MusicalGirl2311]

These were definitely aired out of order, Scooter was already in previous episodes.

[4everUself]

@MusicalGirl2311 in wikipedia it's writen that this is the 2nd episode after the pilot, you can find the original episode list there

[TheCoolColorOfBlack]

Their attenttion to detail never fails to astound me, there never seem to be the continuity errors that we see on crappy Kids programs today :S

[DerEchteBold]

@TheCoolColorOfBlack

haha - and it's not like the top comment establishes that the first episodes where broadcasted in the wrong order

but anyway

it's the greatest show ever

[TheCaelanator]

I saw Karen Prell's name on this show, but the only role I know her as is the athletic Red Fraggle.

[Stephen10528]

@snoop0851 Another weird thing; he's on The Muppet Movie, the movie that shows how the muppets met for the 1st time.

[Stephen10528]

Kermit told Scooter he doesn't look like a gopher. He doesn't look like a scooter either, does he? :-)

[TheReboot70]

for those of you a little younger heres the who's who of voices on the muppets.... Jim henson did kermit,rolf the dog,dr teeth,sam the eagle.Frank Oz,did fozzy bear,miss piggy,animal.david golenz? did gonzo,dr stangpork,an various others.I'm sure there are ones that I missed. come to think of it,think henson also did link hogthrob

[SuperSonichero10]

@TheReboot70 Pardon my Minor Correction but Sam the Eagle was actually performed by Frank Oz, Not Jim (Muppet Wiki Supports this!) and his name is Spelt Dave Goelz who also played Zoot and Bunsen Honeydew as well! I hope that helps too! =)

[sweetjoey2]

@SuperSonichero10 yeah sam the eagle has always been frank oz that one i'm sure about. and didn't know who voiced zoot and bunsen for sure thanks)

[SuperSonichero10]

@sweetjoey2 You're Welcome, I'm always glad to spread the awesome knowledge of Jim and Co.! =)

[sweetjoey2]

@SuperSonichero10 i'm always wanting to learn more about jim and co. because jim and i share the same birthday and i believe jim helped mark from star wars fame become the "BEST CARTOON JOKER EVER VOICE WISE" SOMEBODY tell me i'm wrong

[SuperSonichero10]

@sweetjoey2 Yeah, I guess we can both agree on that!

[Jessegirl4eva]

I LOVE JIM NABORS!

[classicrockfan555]

Why did Dr. Teeth eat the money?

[LovedbyKenubus]

LOl dr.julius strangepork...love that name....♥

[LovedbyKenubus]

does jim henson provide the voice for dr.teeth....?

[TheaterServant]

@LovedbyKenubus Jim did voice Dr. Teeth before he died

[ZNKChannel]

Is this the first time Dr. Teeth is shown with live hands?

[gnrrrg]

Dr. Teeth's money song is better than Eric Idle's song on The Money Program.

[mabgamer6407]

1:48 I can Imagine Mr. Crabs singing this.....

[LadyEdgar]

JIM NABORS I LOVE YOU. Oh, and the muppets, I love you as well.

[TnseWlms]

I remember distinctly watching this episode as a kid- Waldorf and Statler made some comment about Jim Nabors with a pun on his last name- but it did not appear in the DVD version.

[GeninAsurii]

That guy shouldn't have said "Break a leg" to Animal XD

[garrettor]

what was the first ep with pigs in space?

[teenangel93]

Milton Berle (S2 E3) :)

[cyberdragonessmaster]

makes me wonder do you think scooter uncle really owned the place or dose he just say it to get what he wants

[TamTheHamster]

I think his uncle really does... why should Scooter have said that otherwise to the janitor... It was not as if he wanted anything from him...

I like Scooter. - But then I like nearly all of the muppets...

[TheRealKingOfIdiots]

That was a long way to go for a "dog eat dog" joke... and I loved every second of it.

[LFirstbasema]

Scooter's 1st day part was in a Muppet Show book I read.

[moriya2k2]

??? didn't he meet Scooter in the first episode?

[jedieco23]

How is this about Scooter being introduced in this Episode? He's being around since the very begining!

[KayKay345]

I know! Im confused now.

[Externica]

The episodes were aired in a different order, than they were produced.

I hope I said this right, my english isn't that good.

[kblixt]

I call it the flashback episode of how Scooter was introduced.

[GameStation3]

Does anyone know where I could find the complete versions of the Joel Grey, Jim Nabors, Paul Williams, Charles Aznavour, and Vincent Price Muppet Show episodes? Please, I desperately want them.

[roedtbeist]

I absolutely adore the last song "Dog Eat Dog". It always makes me break out in a huge smile. =)

[GameStation3]

Where is the uncut version of the Jim Nabors episode with the two songs missing here?

[heathernicest69]

YAY!

[ljks1]

bling bling dr.teeth :P

[Glennandrews]

I have heard that the reason that the Muppet Show ended was that Kermit developed a serious cocaine problem and nearly went crazy.

Also Rolling Stone magazine rated Animal as the 4st best drummer of Rock's top 100. After the Muppets, he worked with a variety of acts from Glen Campbell to Marilyn Manson.

[LincolnHeightsrocks]

It's funny how originally the Newsman did inteviews with the Guest Stars. And by the second season it was set up where something would fall on the Newsman or something crazy would happen to him. Thanks for posting these first Season TMS episodes. It was a great Season.
