I'll take two out of three.

I will watch anything involving the Muppets.

I thought Muppets were Craig Ferguson's schtick.

TheShizzler: I thought Muppets were Craig Ferguson's schtick.

This was originally John Denver's shtick. Fallon's borrowing.

Fozzie cracks me up every time.

That made me smile...of course it may have been the vodak...

I enjoyed that, but then again, I'm on my second bottle of sake.

Jimmy Fallon loves the cock.

John Denver & The Muppets is *still* my favorite Christmas album after 20+ years. I still haven't actually seen the original, my parents always played the soundtrack and that's been good enough for me.

I've been in a Bah Humbug mood all season, but after this I think I'll add some rum to my eggnog and give a goodwill countdown to Jesus' birthday party.

Holy crap the 'vodak' meme lives.

The Grassroots > The Roots

The muppets and John Denver were a perfect match. I have always wondered why they don't still show those specials. It's been a while but I imagine they are pretty timeless.

Vodka Zombie: FTFA: Merry Christmas, comedy fans! Here's Jimmy Fallon...

I don't think that means what you think it means.

he refers to himself as 'we'... what did you expect?

I don't care what the people say
Christmas time is near.

Jimmy Fallon is actually...better now. It's weird but, he's actually been funny these last few months.

john denver and the muppets = best Christmas record evar!!!!

/glad to see that it's getting some respect here on fark

John_From: Holy crap the 'vodak' meme lives.

There was a vodak headline just today or yesterday

I thought I was the only one who had that John Denver/Muppets album as a kid.

Have that version of "12 Days of Xmas" on mp3, but I should go out and get the entire album. With some of the cheesy or just plain bad Xmas music I've already got that I don't listen to once a year, I may as well. For the novelty, if nothing else (half of my music collection is "for the novelty").

finally? i mean the song is just farking terrible

I'm pretty sure he's got Conan's old writers

Damn, but Denver wax good there.

Flapjack727: Jimmy Fallon is actually...better now. It's weird but, he's actually been funny these last few months.

Agreed. And The Roots have been awesome since the first episode (and well before this, I'm reliably told). Fallon is actually the only late-night show I DVR anymore.

Oh, and Captain Kirk, The Roots' guitarist, is some sort of God.

IAmNotRickMoranis: TheShizzler: I thought Muppets were Craig Ferguson's schtick.

This was originally John Denver's shtick. Fallon's borrowing.

Why were the Muppets all blocky and pixelated back then?

/Merry Christmas all you Farkers!

Christmas music? Hurry, please, Dec. 26th.

Black Thought is the Jesus of flow. Gift of Gab is the Holy Spirit. Ace is God.

The Roots are awesome, best live show I have ever seen!

Fozzie gives great head!

Of all the late-night shows to be the house band for, why Jimmy Fallon? The Roots are the best thing about the show

ScottHimself: Black Thought is the Jesus of flow. Gift of Gab is the Holy Spirit. Ace is God.

The Holy Trinity.

The saddest thing about all of this is that a whole bunch of young viewers (if there are any) are going to think Jimmy Fallon is so original for doing this...

/only 29
//get off my lawn

Ms. Piggy is a butt slut!

It's after midnight on the east coast. For all yous EST farkers, Merry Christmas!

/Central, Mountain and Pacific can EABOD

Merry Christmas...Its 10 past here!

google's down

We've already wasted 10% of the 21st century with stuff like this. ;-)

This was pretty awesome. I can't recall if the Muppet's version of Bohemian Rhapsody was linked here, but I'll pass it along anyways.

Clicky pops.

Ha ha ha, finally?

_{/WTH have I been?}

That sounds like it would be an abortion. I'm not risking this one, subby.

That's pretty good...but the best Christmas related thing I've seen in quite a while was actually Jimmy Fallons informational christmas gift wrapping video

Link (new window)

It's full of win. Guaranteed.

Jimmy Fallon



/Not watching

thrgd456: google's down

odd..you're right

Is that show funny now?

Hey Jimmy Fallon, hit yourself with the Talent stick a couple of times cuz you aint got none. You suck.

/anyone who likes Jimmy Fallon fails at life
//The Muppets, however, ROCK!

I don't think I know anyone who doesn't like the Muppets.

They're actually pretty close to each other, aside from the obvious of Fallon taking Denver's part. The biggest difference I noticed was that they swapped a few characters - they bumped Statler, Waldorf, and the Electric Mayhem for Sam the Eagle, Rizzo, and Pepe.

T.M.S.: The muppets and John Denver were a perfect match. I have always wondered why they don't still show those specials. It's been a while but I imagine they are pretty timeless.

That's a good question. I'm in my twenties, and I don't remember that special ever airing on TV. Judging from Amazon, it's also not available on DVD. My guess would be that they think the demand isn't there, or the rights to the special are lost in the quagmire that happened from the Muppets changing hands so many times.

All I know is that most of the Muppet material, especially their Christmas specials, ages well. I still watch Muppet Christmas Carol almost every year.

FAIL-LON

What an obvious and blatant RIP OFF of the John Denver version.

Are comedy writers so artistically bankrupt that regurgitating a Muppets CLASSIC is the only way to fill Fallon's Show? This is the same group of idiots who walked out because they wanted more money for their "artistic gift" of writing sitcoms and comedy shows. And they got the raise. This is the result?!
