Kermit: "Get away from me, you hulking creep!"

[Wheeljack214]

This is the 2nd time Kermit was eaten. The 1st time was by Big V in the original Inchworm sketch in 1965.

This has brought my co-worker and I into hysterics at 2 in the morning at work. The way Gorgon Heap's eyes light up at the second dish... Priceless!!!

[disneyrangerblue02]

LMAO!!!! That's hilarious!!!

[kevin zachary]

And here is my ex wife, one of the worlds greatest eaters...

[Pete Piper]

vincent had those eyes and then a excellent delivery that was always why he could tell a story or present drama thrillers and horror on screen himself

Gorgon Heap, So Funny!!!!!

Actually, Kermit doesn't get eaten here. He escapes up to the balcony (where Statler and Waldorf promptly ask for his ticket).

This is even funnier if you know Vincent Price's real-life passion for gourmet cooking (he even wrote a couple of cookbooks).

[SilverterrorII]

Poor Kermit, but it's still funny.

[80MWH]

There's something fiendishly funny about Price's voice when he decides to partake in 'Froggy's' left arm.

[disneyphilip]

Not really. Kermit got eaten a lot more often in the old days.

Not just in the Inchworm/Glowworm sketch, but in other bits as well, such as the "Music Hath Charms" sketch (where he gets eaten by a monster piano) and "Ive Grown Accustomed to Your Face" (where he sings the song in drag while Yorick attempts to devour him/her), just to name a few.
