And here is Gonzo the Great to tell us about some of our new programs! Take it away Gonzo.
Thank you very much, Kermit! Let's see, here on Monday we have Murphy Prawn,...
...and the Single Duck in the City and his apartment full of friends...
Rizzo I got one too.
...and for this evening's show right now we have TBA followed by the X-flies...
Ahr...er.. 'x...'xcuse me, but TBA means 'To be Announced', which means...We don't have a show for tonight!
[freaking out] What?! No show?! Oh, no, that's terrible ! [resumes "normally" after a pause] Okay, on Saturday we have...
Congratulations, Clifford, you got your own show
[into the phone] Hold on, baby. [to Kermit] My Own show?! I've always wanted to have my own show! Man, this is great! So, so when does it start?
Ooh, in about thirty seconds.
[into the phone] I call you back. Iuh![faints]
I'm Clifford, your homey made of foamy!
[There is no opening act]
Clifford, your problems are solved: I've got an act that's gonna knock your socks off.
Oh, yes, okay. [clears throat] Muppets Tonight is proud to present: François Fromage and his dancing cheeses ! Give it up, Give it up!
It better be Gouda! What? Too cheesy?
[Miss Piggy offers her services]
You're really gonna do our show? We', that's great! But, but I thought you were busy doing infomercials.
[repulsed] Infomercials? Hahah, hah, hah, hah: it is to laugh! Moi am a star ! I do not stoop so low as to do... infomercials !
R Redshirt
[Turns on tv] Hey, Miss Piggy, They're running one of those infomercials you do not doooo...
[eliminates him] Hahahah, haah.
PO Miss Piggy on the Infomercial
And not only do my Pigwig hair extensions make a provocative fashion statement - as - vous - can - plainly - see, but...they are also handy in the kitchen as a lovely pot scrubber. Look! [the pot turns her around really fast] The pot is getting so clean, I can see myself! Whoa, whoa!
[deadpan] Don't laugh, it paid for the beach house.
[Clifford has foolishly agreed to hire Andy and Randy Pig, two nephews of Miss Piggy]
So which one of you fellows are Andy, and which one's Randy?
AR Andy and Randy
This job is too hard!
[Statler and Waldorf in the nursing home]
Waldorf Nurse, there's something wrong with this tv!
[Next week: Elvis of Arabia]

Dang, it's hot out here.
[Clifford is still a bit dizzy from his last encounter with Miss Piggy]
[dazed] Ladies and gentlemen, here's a sweet musical number, from The Sound of Music...number.
[Michelle Pfeiffer and Miss Piggy perform The Sound of Music]
MP Michelle Pfeiffer
[to children] I'm going to sing you a song. [to Miss Piggy] In key.

Now, er, how would your name appear on my list here?

Ooh, ok, Dr. Rorschach, I'll play along. I see my mother and a butterfly doing a mambo on an orange.
T TAFKAP
Just check the list, fool!
Pretty mouthy for a guy with no name.
[The crew just performed Delerious for Prince]
T TAFKAP
That's wonderful, but I ain't into the leather and lace look much anymore, guys
GG Gonzo the Great
Oh, good, 'cause this bustier is killing me, heheh.

T TAFKAP
By the way, Gonzo. You are definitely workin' these pumps 'n fishnets.
