Muppets and a Question

[lls_mutant]

I am definitely having fun watching Season One of the Muppet Show. I'd forgotten how adult some of their humor really is. Examples:

(in the ballroom)
Zoot: Do you believe in the hereafter?
Janice: Yes.
Zoot: Then you know what I'm here after!

Gonzo: Kermit, are you busy?
Kermit: Yes, Gonzo, but I can give you my ear for a moment.
Gonzo: What would I do with your ear?
Kermit: Van Gogh impressions.

Kermit: Sam, Elton John is a very important musician.
Sam the American Eagle: Then why does he dress like a stolen car?

Candice Bergen: What do you get when you order a Russian dressing? Rudolf Nureyev putting on his tights?

I mean, seriously. Are kids supposed to get some of these? (She asks happily.) God, I miss Muppet humor. And I'm having a lot of fun making Muppet icons.

In a completely unrelated note, does anyone know any good artists who do fanart for A Song of Fire and Ice? I'd love to see some.

There was that Muppets Tonight series, but it seems to have fizzled. I wish it hadn't, although I wasn't too crazy about some of their new additions. Plus, the humor isn't quite as sarcastic in the episodes I've seen. :P

I would love it if they brought it back again as well!
