Vincent Price

Just in time for Pride, 2021 or Groundhog Day, 1977 it’s…a super spooky Halloween episode? Whatever the season, we loved this episode, the first theme episode of The Muppet Show’s run. Vincent Price is a great guest, fully embracing the Muppet ethos and bringing his own creepy/campy/fun sensibility. Plus the first appearance of Uncle Deadly and a Droop sighting! We wouldn’t have minded some better singing but at some point beggars can’t be choosers.


With Our Very Special Guest Stars…Josh Krebs and Liz Richards Krebs!

Josh grew up obsessed with horror movies. Liz was so frightened by an accidental glimpse of Nightmare on Elm Street 3 when she was seven, she swore off the genre forever.

But they love each other - so much that they dreamed up the podcast Bloody Date Night, where a horror movie nerd and a total novice share what happens when you introduce who you love to what you love...that they're probably going to hate.

In each episode the couple break down a different horror movie that they watched without each other. Josh could be seeing them for the 10th or 20th time and for Liz, it's always a first-time viewing. They then come together to discuss, dissect, and flirt just a little. It's the most fun you'll have being a third wheel.

This didn’t make it into the show but it’s even weirder than the Harmonicats. What if Aaron Tveit and Stockard Channing were Wayne and Wanda?

 

“Fuck Paul McCartney…and happy birthday.”

We said “We should make a list of all Muppet Show/Scooby Doo cross-overs” and of course Muppet Wiki has already done it.
