Muppet Show S1 E5 P2 - Rita Moreno

[Blondiegreeneyes72]

that part when that guy was hitting those litle furry things looked painful ;)

[Kitchenwitch83]

Emercito, the song the three guys sing is called "Morrow"

[jonax64]

She sounds just like Chiko Marx in the intellectual skit

[jasobres]

I bet that was her intention.

[emercito]

Does anybody have the lyrics of this song, sang by thee guys?

[loyboys]

7:07 did the guest say "bullshit"?

[checkeredgeek]

I think it was Bolshevik.

[moriya2k2]

Miss Piggy is a racist

[Blondiegreeneyes72]

why do you say that?

[moriya2k2]

listen to the way she talks to Rita

[Blondiegreeneyes72]

oh yeah i see what you mean.

[adrainville]

Who were the banjo players supposed to impersonate?

[lzhiu]

Their puppeteers - Jim Henson, Frank Oz, and Jerry Nelson.

[adrainville]

Cool. I've never seen pictures of the puppeteers... so I didn't get this at first.

Thank you! :)

[johntheechidna1]

Frank Oz being the one at the end going, "I don't get it.", right?

[johntheechidna1]

Frank Oz being the one who says "I don't get it.", right?

[1954godzilla1954]

i love the banjo players

[Remiera]

Their puppets look so much like them!

[RageDev]

OMG a Jim Henson-likeness Puppet!

[Tessatron]

Rita really kept in character.

She's a pretty swell actress.

Bahaha, Desi Arnez...

[archivesbc]

Fozzi's running gag is taken from the Marx bros. But I prefer Fozzi to Harpo :)

[waddleduckie1]

'I don't think we should be going to the ball anymore, we are attracting loan sharks'.

[AnnaValdez]

optimus:AttenTION!

jazz:Tuning up! (pow)

sari:OW!

[songkona]

AttenTION!

Tuning up!

OW!

... yea, the next guy is Desi Arnaz!

ROFL

I do love Rita's accent. ;D

[heyheyheydude]

Man I forgot how flat-looking Miss Piggy's eyes used to be in the 70's. Maybe she was stoned like everyone else was back then LOL

[fl1992]

Happy Belated Birthday to Rita Moreno, A Beautiful, Talented Spanish Actress!

[MateoG7788]

Puerto Rican... she is not from Spain...

[fl1992]

Yes I know that Rita Moreno is Puerto Rican. She's A Very Beautiful Latin American Woman! I loved it when she tickled Kermit in the talk spot of this episode!

[MateoG7788]

I'm just saying, Spanish people are from Spain, and she isn't from Spain. Therefore she is not Spanish. I'm just saying 'cause I'm from Colombia and I like to be called Colombian, not Spanish. But yes, she is very beautiful and talented.

[fl1992]

Rita Moreno is the only female performer to win an Oscar, a Grammy, a Tony, and an Emmy for this episode of The Muppet Show's 1st season back in the year 1977.

[MateoG7788]

Ummmm, thanks? I already knew that... O_o

[Gathol]

Thanks, I din't know that.

[fl1992]

Your welcome. Do you remember The Great Space Coaster?

[Gathol]

yes. but not really into it.  like i was speed racer.

[fl1992]

Do you remember Frannie, the 16 year old brunette singer/guitar player who used tease Puppet Goriddle Gorilla on TGSC?

[Gathol]

no but i do remember gary gnu. but then i grew up with the bugalloos and that saucy english chick. and emmy-jo from the new zoo revue.

[fl1992]

Do you remember Gary Gnu meeeting Actress Loni Anderson as a Great Space Coaster guest star?

[Gathol]

i missed that epi. but i remember it being talked about.

[fl1992]

What did Gary Gnu and Loni Anderson talk about together on The Great Space Coaster? If you know? His show was called The no gnus is good gnus show.

[oliviagale]

Zoot used to speak?

[wookie72]

Every once in awhile, yes. Check out the Sax & Violence sketch. It's great.

[sorrowwanders]

ooh i -love- this song! i've actually been to Morrow. (and got 2 speeding tickets there lol)

[ljks1]

hehe funny that it looks like them :P

[Afalstein]

Is the tomorrow song an added segment? I know sometimes they stick in extras to the DVD's

[bethhigdon]

I reconized Jim but who are the other two?

[BaWitda]

Jerry and Frank (played, of course, by Jerry Nelson and Frank Oz). Jerry's the dark-haired fellow on guitar and Frank's the redhead on bass.

[bethhigdon]

thank you. I gussed that one might be Frank.but I didn't know who the other was.

[Animesia2]

I'm guessing Jim Henson is the lead singer.

[huntress1863]

aaaaah!!!!! it's a jim henson muppet!!!!! lol

[Quidam]

Singing a rather confusing song. ^.^
