Muppet Show In French!!

[Kaiser Gonzo]

has anyone watched the muppet show in french on the MS Series 1 dvds
its totally scary and very crazy, all the songs are in english but even the guest statrs dialouge is dubbed its weird, the theme song is the scariest bit

If you thought the French dubbing was bad, you should hear the Italian version

No but i did watch IAVMCM in French. It seemed very unatural hearing them talk in a foreign language.

Muppets en francais? C'est vraiment fou!

(Muppets in French? That's really crazy!)

Bonjour! Tu es francaise? Ca va?

(my french is limited, just started taking french in school)


I think its kinda funny when you watch the muppets in another language

 

[Muppet Newsgirl]

Oui, ca va bien. Je ne suis pas francaise, mais je peux parler la langue; ca fait sept ans que je l'etudie.

Translation: Everything's fine by me. I'm not French, but I can speak the language. I've been studying it for seven years now.

I agree that the Muppets are really weird in different languages...and I mean, how are ya gonna translate the jokes?
If you need any help with your studies, Sgt. Floyd, feel free to look me up. Word of warning: the subjunctive tense is a killer.

I already started a thread on this a few months back in this section called "Le Muppet Show". Unfortunately, I can't find the link as the search function isn't working properly.

Mods - is there anyway you could possibly combine the two threads together?

If anyone is interested I found on the web a full uncut Italian dubbed (with some English language) episode of TMS with Gilder Radner.

You will need a DIVX player to play

enjoy

I wached it a while ago.
Good grief it's freaky-deaky, especially the theme!
Mm... kinda reminds me when they showed Fraggle Rock dubbed in different languages in the FR documentry briefly.
