Chrome Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 Something weird happened to me over the weekend (weirder than normal, I mean) ... I was watching one of those "I love the 70s/80s" shows on VH1 and they had Kermit the Frog on as one of the snarky critics ... giving his comments about various pop culture, uh, icons, and that was strange enough, but then they had a clip from "The Muppets Movie" and had Kermit commenting on that, too ... my head almost exploded!

Dan Gould Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 I don't know, I liked the post-modern element of Kermit commentary. And some of those episodes are quite amusing, until we get to the hair bands of the 80s, at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 Hey, at least Kermit is still Kermit. What if they took Miss Piggy, turned her into Liz Taylor and did a "Behind the Muppets" episode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrome Posted February 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 (edited) From the Slate guy's review of Super Bowl ads ... "Pizza Hut introduces a new four-section pie (I believe it was termed the "Four-for-all") with Jessica Simpson and the Muppets. I have not much to say about this, except: Did you notice Miss Piggy's new haircut? It used to be curly and brassy (sort of a '70s Farrah Fawcett look), but now she's had it straightened, with bangs (more like a Sex and the City Kim Cattrall look). I think she had some work done, too." Emphasis mine! Edited February 3, 2004 by Chrome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
