The Muppet Show - Sam vs. The Rats

[JohanStarDragon]

Hehehe.  Sam probably sends that list to the head of the FCC.

1:48 One of the few times Rizzo talked on The Muppet Show

[NaiTaiDai]

If the rats do so much good for the theater, why did Kermit want them out in the Joan Baez episode?

[PepeTheKingPrownOK]

0:52 - ...MASTERPIECE.......

[stopertimev]

that rat has to be mexican he called he's whole family to help him xD

[NaiTaiDai]

Is the rat performed by Jerry the one that would become Rizzo? 

[ZNKChannel]

@NaiTaiDai I think so. Steve said he always made costumes for this one rat puppet, but I think they chose Jerry to do him here. But you can hear Steve's Rizzo at the end when they throw Sam out.

[KakiHat]

These were from the last good days of the Muppets. Is their any way we can get this stuff in DVD?

[Oldiesmann]

@KakiHat This is from Season 4, which isn't on DVD yet. Unforutnately, Disney (which now owns the Muppets), has not given any word as to when Season 4 will be out or what the delay is (it's been several years since Season 3 came out). In 2009, Disney said it would be out in 2010, but that never happened. There's now speculation that they might be waiting for the upcoming new Muppet movie to release it, which would bring it out in November.

Two people are under a citizen's rat arrest!

[vigo894]

Don't let Piggy hear that Kermit.

[batsarecool09]

that rat hauled ass!!!!!!

[NJburbsSeeker]

Eco Rats...they pickup all the trash at your job and dump it. HHHmmmm...back to the lab.

[glowworm2]

"What is a rat doing in a legitimate theater?"

"Well I um send him out to buy me a chocolate milkshake actually." XD

[3in1master]

heh, they took out the trash...the muppets were great, until Jim died

[savagesteve13]

Sam was the Glenn Beck of his time.

[Gunganfan]

Personally, I'm surprised a bird of prey is so sensitive to rodents. Rats form a substantial part of most eagles' diets.

[DrThunder88]

I love how Sam uses a quill pen.

[IANOYTYK]

That's the kind of place it is you know? The uh the chickens dance- the uh pig sings and the uh the rat goes out and gets me some food.

That is my favorite Kermit line ever- perfectly describes the muppet.

[dude13zo]

Sam is awesome i loved him in the treasure island movie

[TheEmikodo]

I first discovered Sam on THAT.

When I started to like the Muppets on the 2009 at summer break.

[Hawkpelt34]

No, it's because Sam's being a jerk to the rat.

[TheEmikodo]

Why?

Because now they want to kidnap Sam?

[Hawkpelt34]

Lol! Excectly, but don't forget to bring back the clipboard!

[TheEmikodo]

Sam gets kidnapped by rats!

[Hawkpelt34]

Ha! Serves him right!

[TheEmikodo]

Why?

Just because I said, "Sam's been kidnapped.

But still, why?

[TheEmikodo]

Hey, I heard Sam Say "Put me down"!

[NaiTaiDai]

Well, Rizzo was definitely the first among the rats to gain some sort of personality, since he called his species "creatures of GENIUS" in The Muppets Go To The Movies, right?

[PJSkins26]

I wonder if this was the inspiration for creating Rizzo The Rat.

[NaiTaiDai]

Anyone get the feeling when Gaffer says "Prow?" she was being performed by Dave before Kathy Mullen took the role?

[vaillylovestodance]

I love sam, he should have got more air time!

[TheEmikodo]

I love Sam the Eagle TOO!

He's funny when he's angry!

I want to kiss him 20 times!!!

^^ ^^ ^^

[XTesT15X]

LOL! citizens rats arrest

[eliy25]

oh i love sam he makes me laugh

[MorningCop]

Fabulous Show. To bad it has been taken off the screens. Especially Sam was such a magnificent character. He and his never ending conflict with "all those rats here"! Love it.

[UdoShan]

1:00 For the first time in my life, I felt sorry for the rat! Lol
