The puppet broke down in the middle of a performance.
And my eyes are leaking like crazy! For all its insanity and creativity, The Muppets are such heartfelt characters and they could get reactions like that. This is one of the best examples.
Oh, poor Gonzo. My grandfather made his own version of this song that he used to sing at special times. I wish I could remember the words but I was too young. God bless you granda, and Godbless everyone.
Shucks, this sure was touching. For better or for worse, Muppets have sure had an impact on me. I was not enthused much over the Green Album (it had its moments, I guess), but I am looking forward to my once-every-four-years trip to the cinema to see the new Muppet flick that comes out in November (I think it's in November.. Better not make any plans based around what I say). The Muppet Show is my favorite show of all time. I'm going to go watch it right now and go to bed. Goodnight, Mush.
@spsbroly Tell you wat, I bet if they re do it today with the same themes; Pigs in space, the old two men, vetenerian hospital ect with the "stars" of today it would kill big time. Most deffinitly.
I recall gonzo singing a song that went "I wish I had a coat of silk, the color of the sky".. but I cant seem to find it... what episode was that one in?
@SunDown419 Gonzo arrived - immaculate as described. His legs bend so he is sitting on a shelf watching me. Trouble is his arms and legs don't stretch.
@SunDown419 Don't know but it has a genuine Muppet Label with Disney on it. On Ebay I did see smaller Gonzo. My daughter adores Animal, I just got her Animal Pyjamas from Sainsbury's - small Mens size. and No the trousers don't have a front and back - they just pull up or down. She is 34 this year.
Usually, I laugh when I watch the Muppets, but right now, I just need a good cry, & this particular scene fits the mood perfectly. Oh, Gonzo, Ifeel your pain! Love you forever!!!
In the theater, Gonzo has often been the object of ridicule from the audience and his co-stars at times. But when he realizes that going to Hollywood may mean he may never see any of his friends again, he has second thoughts while onstage.
Being offered a movie deal means SOMEONE thinks he's good enough for the big time, but is he really willing to change his way of life and leave behind everyone he knows?
My son, who is now 36, sobbed for days when we watched this episode back then - Gonzo was his favourite. He was traumatised, sensitive little chap as he was.
I've heard this done by Pavorotti, The Sex Pistols, three guys from Texas, Ol' Blue Eyes Himself, and now The Great Gonzo! Man, I've seen EVERYTHING!!!
I was just kidding about the Gonzo situation. But BikouTenma started beef with me earlier on a different video than this one. So just screw you & get out of my kool-aid conversation.
O.O Eh? Oh...so I was mistakened? Oops.... *blushes red with embarrassment* Um...sorry about that. I thought you were another hater or something. Again sorry. As you could see, I don't really like haters and anti fans. I apologize for the things I've said. To make it up to you, I'm deleting all posts except this one so we can both forget this.

Gonzo has no vocals. That Little Blue Stringed alien can't sing a lick even in his own dreams. The audience should've BOOED Gonzo off the stage for that.
It's a lil kids show, dumbass. Noone is going to boo him off.
Why are you so angry at the muppets? Did the stringed wonders hurt you in some way? Did they deal some kind of psychological impairment?
Do you enjoy trolling these videos? Hating on a character that is played by someones hand? I hope you enjoy your pathetic life, because we are just laughing at your idiotic shit.
Seriously kid, try going outside once in a while, a lil sun will do you some good

Angry at the Muppets!?! Boy Stop! I grew up on watching the muppets. WHAT IS YOU TALKING ABOUT? AND I HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR GAY, FAGGOT, SHORT LIFE. Who would name there son Joe? Your parents must have been drunk, sippin on that Gin & Juice, like real talk. I bet your parents were like "Hey Honey, let's try some Sloppy Joe tonight". "Okay Dear!" You really need a life.
@1990babyface Uh, yes I do have a life. you semen licking piece of shit, If I didn't, then I wouldn't be on my computer typing this reply, would I? In fact, I wouldn't be on this Earth at all. You're the sorry ass son of a whore who needs to get a FUCKING LIFE!!! And some emotions which you lack. This is a very sad video and for some 'so-called' Muppet fan, you're one hell of a dumbass. Instead of putting up crap of you hating The Great Gonzo, go back to your little cot and shake your rattle.
@CJPrime931 Go crawl back to hell lucifer. This conversation died out 2 years ago & your pussy ass just loves be noisy & jump in some other bitches business to start shit. Your life is already over & dead burning in the lake of fire. Pathetic fucking cunt.
A true Muppet classic. I love how the Muppets could be absolutely off the wall bankers one moment, and then have truly touching moments like this one that tugged at your heartstrings. Kudos for the post
