It's time to meet the Muppets...
The Muppet Show: Season 3 is out on DVD next week. We've gotten our first review, and it would seem that the episodes are uncut once more. :D
We get some nice extras here. The 1968 documentary Muppets on Puppets, hosted by Jim Henson and Rowlf the Dog. Several modern-day interviews with the puppeteers. Some old ads with Rowlf for Purina Dog Chow.
And the following episodes:
* Episode 301: Kris Kristofferson & Rita Coolidge
* Episode 302: Leo Sayer
* Episode 303: Roy Clark
* Episode 304: Gilda Radner
* Episode 305: Pearl Bailey
* Episode 306: Jean Stapleton
* Episode 307: Alice Cooper
* Episode 308: Loretta Lynn
* Episode 309: Liberace
* Episode 310: Marisa Berenson
* Episode 311: Raquel Welch
* Episode 312: James Coco
* Episode 313: Helen Reddy
* Episode 314: Harry Belafonte
* Episode 315: Lesley Ann Warren
* Episode 316: Danny Kaye
* Episode 317: Spike Milligan
* Episode 318: Leslie Uggams
* Episode 319: Elke Sommer
* Episode 320: Sylvester Stallone
* Episode 321: Roger Miller
* Episode 322: Roy Rogers & Dale Evans
* Episode 323: Lynn Redgrave
* Episode 324: Cheryl Ladd
My personal favorites of these are Spike (of course), Danny Kaye, Sylvester Stallone (who is hilarious), Harry Belafonte (brilliant final song), and Alice Cooper, trying to sell Muppet souls to the devil. Also, not as bad as season four but still bad, this is where the Muppet obsession with country music guests begins. Hope you like country.
Recommended for adults and kids alike.
