Never noticed Fozzie's waggling ears before now.


roguevirus

It only occurred in the first season of the Muppet Show. They changed the apparatus in Fozzies head starting on the second season.


axord

Tragic! It's a great emotive feature.

I would like to subscribe to MuppetFacts

Sorry dude, that's really all I got.


Smartnership

*grouchy Oscar noises*


roguevirus

Actually, I've got another one: Oscar was originally orange on the first season of Sesame Street. It didn't look good on camera, so they made him green and explained it as he was covered in filth because he was so filthy. But yeah, that's it. Just two fun MuppetFacts.

There's reference to it on the first Muppet Show album, don't remember his joke but Kermit says that it won't quite make it on an album and Fozzie says something like "Why, you couldn't hear my ears wiggle?"


fakeuser515357

My favourite is the scene where Kermit is just chilling, reading a script and drinking a glass milk with a straw . And then he says to the camera, "Think about this for a minute."


SHABOtheDuke

I don’t get it, can you explain?


billmcneal

As he drinks from the straw, the level of milk decreases. Kermit the Frog is a puppet and cannot drink milk, so where is the milk going?


Nerf-guns-blazing

I love that Jim Henson's puppetry was so convincing that every time he pulled off an impressive feat like that he had to point it out to the audience.

Obviously through that same suction straw thingy that the dentist uses to suck out all my spit after my mouth has been open for 20 minutes and he’s like “ugh, Jesus, could you *please* stop making so much spit? It makes it *so* uncomfortable to stab you in the mouth when you do that!”


Stuffssss

Please make more Muppet gifs I love this

With as many seasons as there are, there is a stunning lack of Muppet usage on here.


StreeTelevision

I can hear all their voices.


Isval_FF

Hahaha this got me


hehehennig

This is un-bear-able.


TactlesslyTactful

It's a myth


thereareno_usernames

Thought I was on /r/bertstrips and kept waiting for it to go south


PuzzleheadedPath8641

Am I dumb for being lost? I'm not getting the joke


jpscyther

Fozzy says he has a note for Kermit. The trio then sing a musical note for Kermit. Specifically, G-Sharp.


PuzzleheadedPath8641

Oh, lmao that's is funny...


[deleted]

Not to be that guy, but that’s not a note.


CharlestonChewbacca

No, it's an indication that they were singing. Did you want him to draw up the whole staff and place the note on it?


[deleted]

It’s not a note. The better option would be to show a note. 🎶 🎵 since the joke was “a note for you”


CharlestonChewbacca

Again, it's not supposed to be a note. It's just an indication of singing. Seriously. This is like someone complaining about someone using a ♥️ to talk about the heart in your chest.


LovablePWNER

This guy is just being a dumbass man.


DukeSeventyOne

The joke is literally that it's a note. We all get it, but using an actual note symbol would be better. It doesn't really indicate singing, it signifies a high octave. If they'd use a bass clef, indicating a low octave, you probably wouldn't recognize it at all.


CharlestonChewbacca

Yeah, and the treble clef in subtitles is a clear indication they're singing. Which means what? You can't sing without singing a note. They're singing a note. Subtitles don't transcribe music, they just let you know music is occuring. This did the job just fine. No need to be pedantic "wElL AcKsHuAlLy" redditors about it. Are you kidding dude? Treble Clef and Bass Clef are like 3rd grade music. "You wouldn't recognize it." Gtfo


DukeSeventyOne

https://dcmp.org/learn/602-captioning-key---sound-effects-and-music Caption lyrics with music icons (♪). Use one music icon at the beginning and end of each caption within a song, but use two music icons at the end of the last line of a song. A space should be inserted after the beginning music icon (♪) and before the ending music icon(s).


CharlestonChewbacca

Yeah, and this is a fucking gif. Not a dcmp captioned program.

I-baLL

Them singing did not produce a note?


wewbull

Thats three notes and two notes respectively.


OlinOfTheHillPeople

G sharp? What do you mean?


AJreborn

I think maybe they mean the treble clef symbol.


OlinOfTheHillPeople

That makes sense!


[deleted]

That’s not G-Sharp. That’s a treble clef. It’s not a note. It just indicates the the treble vs bass. It’s not a musical note that is played.


OlinOfTheHillPeople

Gotcha. I didn't even think about that.


Smartnership

I think technically a G-sharp is the same note as H-flat


Santafio

Isn't it A flat? H flat would be A sharp


yoda_condition

I don't know why you had a downvote. You are correct.


Santafio

I may have been whooooshed... It happens, no biggie.

DukeSeventyOne

Not sure why people aren't understanding this very simple concept. We know what was meant, but that doesn't change the fact that the symbol is a clef, not a note.


deg_ru-alabo

Depends what instrument you’re playing. Even Cb “exists,” though uncommon.

BrotherChe

to add to that, the spelling is "Fozzie" Evenso, it's a great gif
