The Muppet Show has some of the most memorable moments in Muppet history. Each week a celebrity would embark on a journey into the zany world of the Muppets. The show stars Kermit the Frog as a showrunner who tries to keep control of the antics of the other Muppet characters (and his temper), as well as keep the human guest stars happy and secure. The show depicts a vaudeville-style song-and-dance variety show, as well as the behind-the-scenes aspects of such a show. The show was known for outrageous slapstick, sometimes absurdist comedy, and particularly for using Muppet characters to create humorous parodies. After the show became popular, many celebrities were eager to perform with the Muppets on television and in film. By the end of its run, over one hundred guest stars had appeared on The Muppet Show.
This little ditty was in the very first episode of The Muppet Show in 1976 and has become one of the most popular scenes from the show.
What would the show be without two old hecklers, Statler and Waldorf.

Nothing like Statler and Waldorf one-liners to bring a quick chuckle!
From Disney's MuppetVision 3D:
Fozzie: How did you get here?
Waldorf: We entered a contest.
Statler: Yeah! We lost!
