this video shows the real problem of wandering bands of lobsters banditos from mexico crossing the border illegally and holding our chefs up at gunpoint.
These are so much fun. Jim Henson did the main puppetry for the chef, and Frank did the other arm. But they often didn't tell each other what they were going to do with the arms, making for pure anarchy.
@wookie72 i agree. a friend was tellin me to check this vid out. i love the way everything in this vid is so dramatic but comical at the same time. prolly one of my favorite characters ever
From what I've read, lobster shells are a muddy brown originally and turn bright red when cooked. Next time you go to a seafood restaurant, look at the lobster tank. Note the color of the shells.
@polleman1 Nope, but what does that have to do with anything? I've seen similar characters make fun of all accents and languages, including my own. It's not meant to be taken seriously, noone actually thinks swedes speak that way, that's why it's funny.
@NBK160 I was just saying to my husband last night that this wouldn't be allowed to be shown anymore, which is a shame because back then there wasn't anything like "racial stereotyping" and people didn't really think of it that way...
It's the Rock Lobsters!! Or what later became the Rock Lobsters when they did the revamped 'Muppets Tonight' in the mid-late 90s. They had mafia voices there though, and ended up fighting with Pierce Brosnan......
@Majston Actually, if you read some of the posts by Swedes he does occasionally say something in actual Swedish. And they said that "Bork, bork, bork!" means "Gone, gone, gone!" in Swedish. Most of it, of course is pseudo-Swedish english jibberish.
Does anyone else think that the chef sounds a lot like Kermit, aka Jim Henson?
@rwhaller42 Hehe, "Bork" dont mean anything in swedish (I'm swedish). The word you're thinking about is Bort, which means "Go away" ( and is pronounced very differently :P)
@Majston Thanks Majston ansdBossentuppen for clearing that up. And if "Bort" is pronounced very differently, then it can't be what the Swedish Chef is saying because that is definitely "Bork" or something very close to it. Though I wear hearing aids so I am not the best judge of such things ;-) In any case, it is damned funny!
ROTFLMAO!! Bandit lobsters and the swedish chef are SOOOO much better than my special education homework! This is right up there with the banananana split skit.
This is how childhood Tv should be - it's just as good as you remembered it, if not better, 'cause the adult in you can be 5 again and appreciate all the silliness.
Thank you swedish guy, finaly some swedish people with humor! Not that im saying that you swedes don't hav humor, but there are so many of you that hate stuff like this. I know because im Norwegian. Ps. I can prove that i'm norwegian: Jeg er norsk, altså og jeg pleide å snakke akkurat som han
Okay, so I'm sitting here quietly at my desk at work and no one knows I'm watching the Swedish Chef until that lobster says "dooon move". I think my laughing gave me away. That's the funniest damn thing I've seen in a long time!
Funniest Swedish Chef EVER!!!! Mexican Bandito Lobsters...Brilliant!!!! This was my Mothers Favorite One. Also, MultiShadow29... Your ignorence is showing. Please put it away and keep it to yourself. Thank You.
