Welcome to Muppet Wiki!
Miss Piggy is repulsed when Gonzo tells her that he loves her. Kermit tries to help by asking Piggy if she would like to go to dinner -- and when she accepts, he fixes her up with Gonzo. Everybody gets karate-chopped.
Highlights
- Scooter and Floyd sing "Mr. Bassman".
- In the guest talk spot, Mummenschanz "talk" with Kermit -- the mouths of their masks open, and bubbles and ping-pong balls come out.
Notes
- This episode marked the debut of Gonzo's trademark, rushing rapidly through camera with a WHOOSH.
- This was the last episode to feature the voices of John Lovelady and Eren Ozker.
- This was also the last episode that was written and produced by Jack Burns.
- The Sam the Eagle puppet from the Ben Vereen episode is used here.
