From the Balcony

Statler and Waldorf: From the Balcony is a webcast run biweekly on Movies.com starting in June 2005. The two loveable, old curmudgeons watch trailers for whatever movies are coming out that week, then heckle them from their box.

The middle of each "webisode" features a rotating segment: sometimes Pepe the Prawn reviews recently DVD releases or interviews celebrities at movie premieres. Other characters who have popped up during this segment include Rowlf the Dog, Johnny Fiama, The Swedish Chef, Bobo the Bear, Dr. Teeth, Animal, Sam the Eagle, and Sweetums.

Up through the fall of 2005 (episodes 1-8), the performers on each installment were Dave Goelz (Waldorf), Steve Whitmire (Statler), and Bill Barretta (Pepe, et al). These three performers are currently not attached to the project. Current performers include Victor Yerrid (Waldorf and others) and Drew Massey (Statler and others), who filmed the series' test pilot in February of 2005.

Statler and Waldorf's first "Coming Attractions" gig was a column in Muppet Magazine.
