Muppets Tonight goofs

Like with The Muppet Show, producers, directors and performers tried to make sure that the puppet characters of Muppets Tonight were presented as living objects. However, the occasional goof would appear, like those below.

Opening Theme

 * In the opening moment where Clifford begins to sing, the silhouette of the man performing Quongo can be spotted beneath him.
 * The arm sleeve for the performer of Lew Zealand can be seen as he follows Clifford down the halls. In the same shot, the head of his puppeteer pops up.

Season One

 * Episode 101: Michelle Pfeiffer
 * As the Muppets push the supply closet Clifford has locked himself into, the head of a puppeteer beneath a blue whatnot producer can be seen.
 * The hand of the puppeteer holding up the first cheese of Francois Fromage and his Dancing Cheeses can be seen as it enters.
 * The sleeve of the puppeteer of the nurse in Statler and Waldorf's scene after the cheeses number is seen as the nurse walks offstage.
 * The puppeteer of the Elvis on the far left side of the screen during the Blue Suede Shoes number of Great Moments in Elvis History can be glimpsed beneath it.


 * Episode 102: Garth Brooks
 * In the cold opening, the arms of the puppeteers of the Longhorn Cheddar Cheeses are seen. Later, the head of a puppeteer in Garth Brooks' mambo dance pops up beneath one of the dancers.


 * Episode 104: John Goodman
 * When the unnamed Whatnot peaks into the room where Andy and Randy Pig have just been turned into bacon, his performer's arm sleeve can be seen.
