PopTodd Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I watched The Muppet Show with my kids last night, and they were the guests on the episode that we saw; the last episode of season one. SO FREAKING COOL!!! Here's a YouTube link: (YouTube is blocked here at work, so I'm not sure which clip this is... hopefully it's either the notepad flirting, or the clay faces. Let me know, please.) Never really thought about it before, but they were pretty much the precursor to The Blue Man Group. And, I guess that they're still around and still performing:www.mummenschanz.com Cool.

Sir Stewart Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I have fond memories of watching TV with my family and all of us following my father's lead in making fun of the Mummenschanz ad whenever it would come on (I guess they must have toured back then? Not sure what the ad would be for otherwise, since it was pre-VHS -gasp-). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Winston Legthigh Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I used to love these guys as a kid. Also Shields and Yarnell! (They even had their own variety show!) Back then my two favorite shows were Shields and Yarnell, and Sha-na-na. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
