The Muppets Celebrate the 4th of July

The Muppets have released an exclusive Independence Day video onto the web. Sam, the American eagle, presents a musical salute to America. Joining Sam in the tribute are Animal, the Swedish Chef, Beaker, Bobo, a penguin, a couple of chickens and Crazy Harry. So watch this very patriotic video and be sure to send it to all of your friends!

I don't care what you say, Statler & Waldorf! I loved it and thought it was quite funny and creative.

Great to see Bobo and Crazy Harry again, too.

That was truly Muppet!
Reminded me of the Jim Henson Days!

Yay! That was great!

Whaddya think, Eric Jacobson as Sam? Is sure wasn't Kevin Clash...

Brilliant! I'm glad to see some of the newer characters (like Bobo) aren't being totally discarded (like Segal seems to want). Who was doing Waldorf, though? I couldn't place it.

Wouldn't it be nice if the people at Disney knew how to properly display a flag? The union (star field) ALWAYS goes on the viewer's left.

um, i think that's TWO flags and they are properly displayed

I agree - it's great to see my old friends (and some new ones) again. Thought Disney was going to bury them! Good memories of the original "The Muppet Show" through the first 6 years including "The Muppet Movie". David Holman, Las Cruces, NM (Retired Emmy Award winner & production executive)
