00:00:07,500 --> 00:00:08,680
Hi, I'm Brian Henson.

2
00:00:08,940 --> 00:00:12,560
This episode of The Muppet Show stars
former Supreme Diana Ross.

3
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:17,680
In this episode, she performs Love
Hangover, which features the largest

4
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:22,040
ever made. They're called the Gawky
Birds and the Bossmen. The Bossmen are

5
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,040
really tall ones.

6
00:00:23,140 --> 00:00:27,240
And the way they're performed is really
cool. The puppeteers stand behind the

7
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,120
characters dressed in black, working
controls that are painted black, so you

8
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,220
don't actually even see the puppeteers.
It's an amazing effect.

9
00:00:36,140 --> 00:00:39,580
In this episode of The Muppet Show, the
audience is so packed with Diana Ross

10
00:00:39,580 --> 00:00:43,800
fans that they hate everything except
for her. Right now the score is Diana

11
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,500
10, Muppets 3.

12
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,200
They even hate those singing fish, the
Gills Brothers, and Fozzie doing what

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,220
be his shortest comedy act ever.

14
00:00:54,580 --> 00:01:01,000
Here it is, The Muppet Show with Diana
Ross.

15
00:01:04,819 --> 00:01:05,820
Oh, Diana.

16
00:01:06,140 --> 00:01:08,860
Diana Ross, 15 seconds to curtain,
Diana.

17
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,180
Thank you, Scooter. Thank you. Scooter,
by the way, who put this thing in my

18
00:01:13,180 --> 00:01:13,999
dressing room?

19
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,900
Oh, well, I did, because Kermit told me
wherever you go, you have a big fan

20
00:01:17,900 --> 00:01:18,900
club.

21
00:01:21,420 --> 00:01:23,400
I just said there'd be shows like this.

22
00:01:26,980 --> 00:01:30,380
It's the Muppet Show with our very
special guest star, Diana Ross.

23
00:02:01,610 --> 00:02:03,410
inspirational, inspirational,
inspirational.

24
00:04:49,420 --> 00:04:51,380
One to ten, we give it a three.

25
00:04:55,700 --> 00:04:58,060
Well, maybe it wasn't that good. Let's
give it a one.

26
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:13,160
It's rough out there.

27
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,840
Yeah, it's a very strange audience. I'm
sorry about that. We had to go through a

28
00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:17,840
lot of work.

29
00:05:30,730 --> 00:05:31,730
You're what?

30
00:08:08,860 --> 00:08:10,800
I don't know. I don't know.

31
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,500
out there and I want to thank you for
warming them up for me.

32
00:09:22,780 --> 00:09:26,560
They're so terrific. They're the best.
When they love you, they don't hold

33
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,620
When they hate you, they don't hold back
either.

34
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,800
Kermit, first I want to tell you, that
audience is so great out there. I really

35
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,420
do love doing this show. It's the best.

36
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:32,180
Yeah, well, they certainly love you a
lot. It's just, well, it's just us that

37
00:11:32,180 --> 00:11:33,180
they hate.

38
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:38,540
Oh, no, Kermit, Kermit, you have to win
them over. Maybe you have to send in one

39
00:11:38,540 --> 00:11:40,380
of your surefire acts like Vets
Hospital.

40
00:11:40,580 --> 00:11:41,199
That'll work.

41
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:42,119
Vets Hospital?

42
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,840
Yeah. Now, that's a good idea, Vets
Hospital. That's where Dr.

43
00:11:45,100 --> 00:11:48,560
Bob and Nurse Peggy and Nurse Janice run
out there and they tell those awful,

44
00:11:48,660 --> 00:11:49,660
awful jokes.

45
00:11:53,310 --> 00:11:56,370
Well, what about Swedish Chef?

46
00:11:56,970 --> 00:12:00,410
Swedish Chef? Yes, Swedish Chef. A
hilarious cooking lesson.

47
00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:04,470
Yes, with somebody, this guy that you
can't understand making this food that

48
00:12:04,470 --> 00:12:05,470
can't eat.

49
00:12:07,290 --> 00:12:08,650
Hmm, not so good, huh?

50
00:12:09,090 --> 00:12:10,190
Well, let's see.

51
00:12:10,930 --> 00:12:12,610
What else you got?

52
00:12:13,570 --> 00:12:14,570
Pigs in Space?

53
00:12:46,250 --> 00:12:49,530
Careful, that's a solid gold disposable
lighter.

54
00:12:50,430 --> 00:12:51,910
Oh, don't worry.

55
00:12:52,130 --> 00:12:54,210
I'm an expert at these kind of things.

56
00:12:54,510 --> 00:12:56,990
Hmm, maybe First Mate Piggy could help.

57
00:13:21,699 --> 00:13:22,699
Touchy, touchy.

58
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,620
Yeah, and that wasn't the audience.

59
00:13:26,940 --> 00:13:28,940
Your gas lighter sprung a leak.

60
00:13:29,260 --> 00:13:32,360
Oh, is it? Oh, I dropped it. Oh, I'll
get it.

61
00:13:32,740 --> 00:13:37,080
It dropped over here by the tank of
nitroglycerin. Oh, do you want a

62
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:38,200
It's dark under there.

63
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:39,580
I'll just strike a match.

64
00:16:14,830 --> 00:16:17,490
I like it. Can I sing along with you a
little bit? Oh, would you? Thank you.

65
00:16:18,270 --> 00:16:22,410
Last time I saw him, he sweetly kissed
my lips.

66
00:16:23,330 --> 00:16:27,230
Last time I saw him, he said, I'll be
back for more of it.

67
00:16:27,810 --> 00:16:32,530
Hi! Last time I saw him, we were crying
at the bus.

68
00:16:33,190 --> 00:16:37,510
I knew he hated leaving, but he had to
set us up.

69
00:16:38,850 --> 00:16:40,350
I gave him money.

70
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,420
except, well, things like you.

71
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,319
Oh, things like me?

72
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,800
Well, do you think we can go out there
and sing this song? We're just messing

73
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,200
around, rehearsing a little bit. That
would be wonderful.

74
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:17,440
Just one second.

75
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:18,640
Oh.

76
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,980
He's stupid enough to go out there and
face that audience.

77
00:19:32,460 --> 00:19:36,140
I'll do it, Kermit. I've got the
ultimate act. But I'm going to need a

78
00:19:36,140 --> 00:19:37,140
typewriter for it.

79
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,960
Well, Gonzo, we don't have a typewriter.
Then I'll...

80
00:20:52,110 --> 00:20:52,849
on the stage.

81
00:20:52,850 --> 00:20:55,230
And I really do think he deserves
another chance.

82
00:20:55,630 --> 00:20:56,770
Who's she talking about?

83
00:21:22,030 --> 00:21:23,130
in the dressing room right before we
came.

84
00:21:24,590 --> 00:21:25,770
That's a terrible joke.

85
00:21:26,030 --> 00:21:28,330
That's the best joke I've ever heard. I
can't do that joke.

86
00:21:28,690 --> 00:21:30,530
Oh, come on. It's a good one. Give it a
try. Come on, please.

87
00:21:30,810 --> 00:21:31,810
Okay, stick close.

88
00:21:31,910 --> 00:21:32,910
Okay.

89
00:21:33,430 --> 00:21:34,470
Ha, ha, ha, ha.

90
00:21:35,510 --> 00:21:36,510
Hiya, hiya, hiya.

91
00:21:36,670 --> 00:21:39,510
Hey, have you heard about the new soft
drink they're making?

92
00:21:56,650 --> 00:22:00,610
drink they're making just for frogs it's
called croca -cola

93
00:22:00,610 --> 00:22:05,870
how

94
00:22:05,870 --> 00:22:12,730
did you do that well fozzie see it's
very simple you

95
00:22:12,730 --> 00:22:16,330
see i think that uh telling comedy you
know doing comedy jokes and things like

96
00:22:16,330 --> 00:22:19,510
it's just like singing really all you
have to do is let the audience know that

97
00:22:19,510 --> 00:22:23,730
you're reaching out to them and in
return they reach right back to you just

98
00:22:23,730 --> 00:22:24,730
this

99
00:22:34,860 --> 00:22:41,860
if you can reach out and touch somebody
and

100
00:22:41,860 --> 00:22:47,080
make this world a better place if you
can

101
00:25:13,100 --> 00:25:16,680
Thank you very much. I just love your
Coca -Cola joke.

102
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:17,779
Oh, good.

103
00:25:17,780 --> 00:25:19,380
Yeah, yeah. Of course I get a better
one.

104
00:25:20,360 --> 00:25:21,299
Yeah. Okay.

105
00:25:21,300 --> 00:25:25,240
Great. Okay, here we go. Have you heard
about the new soft drink made out of

106
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:30,240
acorns? No. Tell me about the new soft
drink made out of acorns. It's called...
