Not as funny as their Bohemian Rhapsody, but still worthy of sharing...

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Wonderful!

I love how Animal has become the star of these.

The Muppets themselves should be given a Kennedy Center Honors.

A posthumous Kennedy Center Honor to Jim Henson? I'd support that decision!

It never ends well for Beaker, still love him!

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen." Conan O'Brien

Animal reminds me of my self, somehow. Except I was a good bellringer and never got swept off my feet. That's pretty much the only difference though.
