It was set to this whirling, eastern-euro-folksong sounding music. Where can I get a copy of that video, and what is that song!?! tag:ask.metafilter.com,2005:site.27288 Tue, 15 Nov 2005 15:11:11 -0800 frog Kermit music notsnot http://ask.metafilter.com/19012/The%2DMuppet%2DShow It's time to play the music, it's time to light the lights, it's time to ask some questions about <i>The Muppet Show</i> tonight! The Muppet Show is far more surreal than I remembered. A few questions, on the off chance that someone here might really know: <br> <br> (A) How scripted were the shows, typically? It seems to me that many of the guests are just winging it, or have been very selectively filled-in on what's going to happen. <br> <br> (B) How were scripts created? Obviously, good drugs were involved. But were the guests? Did they have a hand in developing their roles in the show? <br> <br> (C) Were there any (non-Henson) historical predecessors to TMS? Or was TMS the first truly surrealistic television act? <br> <br> (D) Was TMS in its day as controversial and upsetting as, say, <i>Family Guy</i> and <i>Southpark</i> have been in our time?<br> <br> And finally, (E) I love TMS, Family Guy, Meet the Feebles, and other surrealistic, cartoony, trippy shows. What others should I watch? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2005:site.19012 Sun, 22 May 2005 19:08:39 -0800 kermit Muppets television tv five fresh fish
