Cheryl Ladd
It’s our season finale, and we enjoy being a Muppet Show podcast with our own very special guest star, Danny Horn, of Tough Pigs, Muppet Wiki and Muppet Pictures. Yaaaaay! It’s a super-sized episode, because we needed extra time to go all in on queer theory, Miss Piggy as long-form drag performance, Muppet jobs vs. Muppet identities, dogs and cats and chickens living together, eyelid mechanisms, twoo wuv, Charlie’s Angels & jiggle television, Link’s nipples, and Rodgers & Hammerstein (okay, we would have gone all in on those last two anyway). Give a listen to the new sound made by this podcast, won’t you?

At The Dance
After watching this, Adam mostly retracts his comments about Norman Maen ripping it off. Influenced, sure, probably, but he doesn’t even come close to what Fosse did here (to be fair, how could he with 2 hours of rehearsal, and Clodhoppers?). You should watch it! Even if you don’t like the song it’s great on mute. (“Brass Band” proper starts at around 2 minutes in.)

The Question Is...Who Cares?
Watching this I realize why I liked it as a child: The questions were VERY easy.
Murder She Wrote: Death Casts A Spell (Adam happened to watch this in between recording and releasing this podcast episode. There’s a hypnotist and, yes, clucking like a chicken.)
