Muppet theater

[amanda]

Lala and I discussed it. We are the Muppet Show.

here's a quiz (http://www.zefrank.com/bulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=969) lala found to figure out what Sesame Street muppet you are, in case you are unsure.

But I think we've got some distinct Muppet characteristics going on here. Who do you think would be what Muppet? Cast yourself and (at least) one other zemonkey.

I'll post mine later.

I am Snuffie, apparently:

Sometimes I get lonely, but I am a unique, special, one-of-a-kind individual who no-one could ever replace.

(Sounds like how my ex used to describe me. Blast From The Past).

[bealeblues]

dinz and i are statler and walford-- the two old farts sitting up in the balcony being critical of everything....

[masterofNone]

JAFG

just another focking grover.

I think I'm closer to Gonzo though, truth be told. I have a thing for the chickens and I hang out with rats.

[bealeblues]

to help you out, go to www.henson.com , navigate through, then click on the bottom left where it says 'characters'... good refresher

[dinzdale]

This is going to get deep when assigning people to Miss Piggy and Spamela Hamderson....though we could all think of one or two.
Equally, would you want to recreate Pigs in Space ?
Dangerous ground indeed.

I'll be nice and just suggest
Fozzie Bear - Beale
Janice - NYCwriter
Dr Honeybun - DickieC
Swedish Chef - Norwegian RuneT
Scooter - Deviate
Dr Bob - MasterofNone


Maybe we should all be The Flying Orisinis......

[amanda]

alright, here's what I could suss out, so far

ze- Kermit
mon- Rowlf the dog/ Dr. Teeth
nyc- Ms. Piggy
dinz- Animal
Rune- the love child of Gonzo and the Swedish chef
moel- Beaker
dickie- scooter
lala- Janice
beale- either statler or waldorf

[bealeblues]

i suppose ze would have to be kermit, b/c kermit's the glue that holds it all together....

[dinzdale]

...and he's green

Anybody, who was the nutcase with the boomerang fish ?
I loved that guy.

[Red Princess]

I am the Cookie Monster, hmmmmm ?

[surflugen]

I want to be Beaker. Meep Meep meep ma-ma meep- beep meep!!

[bealeblues]

all this muppet talk reminded me of something i read on "the onion", the only true news source out there...

[dinzdale]

The River Rats (?) from Emmitt Otter's Jugband Christmas....classic stuff.

[AllegroNg]

Oscar. Oscar?!?!? Sheesh! :hides in trashcan:

[beckstra]

I'm pretty sure I'm Gonzo.

[noxxville]

I have to be Beaker. Beaker is my guy. I have this twisted Beaker figure where he looks verry sinister. Maybe I'c actually be Beaker's sinister, and little known, twin.

I'd actually put Ze as Hensen himself, being as how he created all this for us to play in.

Maybe cast Rune as John Denver....the best Muppet guest.

[Red Princess]

Rune as John Denver, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
maybe Beale

[Red Princess]

me me me , can i blow stuff up please?

[lapietra]

aaawwwww... come on.

You guys are trying to be all polite - but everybody *knows* I'm Miss Piggy. Always have & always will be. Regardless of whatever dress size I might be wearing at the time.
It's an attitude. ;)

But thanks. Janice (http://www.muppetcentral.com/articles/rarelyseen/janice.shtml) is pretty hot. :D

[bealeblues]

maybe agentsmith should be the one to blow stuff up....

[RuneT]

no no I can't be this:

begging to be swedish chef instead

[dinzdale]

Sorry Rune, but you do wear the same sweaters.....

[Red Princess]

awww, let him be the swedish chef, he already has the herring.Dinz can be John Denver

[lapietra]

ppppppbbbbbbbbHAW HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!
hahahahahahahaha
hee hee hee hee
hooboy


*sigh*

Talk about casting against type.

[dinzdale]

But I cant sing very well.......oh I guess that doesnt disqualify me does it?

How about your version of Piggy Sue ?

[masterofNone]

it's not everyday you see a guy that green with the blues that bad.

[Red Princess]

here's Dinz singing Denver
Take me home country roads
to the place I belong
the institution, strap me down please
take me home
country roads

[dinzdale]

I knew it would go downhill fast......

[Red Princess]

sunshine on my shoulders gives me sunburn
sunshine on my hair makes me blonde...

[red]

Oscar the Grouch here.
Somehow I knew it.

[Deviate]

Grover! WOO HOO!

this thrills the hell outta me.
