What Muppet Show wasn't classic? One of the greatest shows to grace the screen ever. The writing and the creativity were second to none. Absolutely loved the show, didn't miss an episode. The whole family watched it-name me a show today that the entire family can watch and enjoy.

Mark Hamill / Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, Chewbacca, and C-3PO were awesome on the Muppet Show. The fact that Hamill played himself and his "cousin" Luke Skywalker as separate characters made the show.

that not even Berle could hold his own against those two just shows how outmatched Fozzie was.

Here's Bruce Forsyth getting one over Statler & Waldorf.

Oh, so many great shows/guest stars. But leaving satisfied seeing Alice and Harry Belafonte. "Turn the World Around" still gives me chills, and the mask puppets were stunning.

Victor Borge and John Denver certainly deserve nods.

Det tror jeg ikke.

Here to express my love for the Vincent Price episode.

Damn it, that man was awesome.

/loved Harry Belafonte, John Cleese and Peter Sellers as well, and I have a soft spot for the John Denver appearance

Went through the slide show looking for Harry Belafonte & leaving happy. I will respectfully state that might be the greatest 30 minutes of TV ever. Absolutely phenomenal.

That said, list fails without Johnny Cash.
