Episode Quotes

Waldorf: Well, what did you think?
Statler: Beats sitting around watching television.
Mahna Mahna: Mahna Mahna!

Scooter: Kermit, Muppy wants you to know he's very sorry he bit you.
Kermit the Frog: Oh, yeah.
Scooter: He wants you to know he's very grateful you're letting him do the Simon Smith number.
Kermit the Frog: Oh, well that's nice.
Scooter: He wants you to know he wants his own dressing room and star billing.
Kermit the Frog: Who is this crazy dog?
Scooter: He's my uncles favorite pet!

Rowlf: I've been playing saloons down in Snake City for three years. It was the roughest town in the west. I mean we had some mean customers.
Miss Kitty: Howdy Rowlf.
Rowlf: Hello, Miss Kitty. I mean they were tough. After three years I thought I'd seen it all. I'd seen the Clem brothers, the Under brothers, the James brothers. Not to mention the Osmond Brothers. But when Kid Fozzie came to town, I knew I hadn't seen nothing.

Mistakes/Goofs

Goof (crew or equipment visible): Just as Miss Piggy throws herself over Kermit near the end of the "Muppet Glee Club performing Temptations" sketch, you can briefly see the face of Dave Goelz performing beneath the hens (right hand half of the choir).
