what's that episode where this guy with a mustache (i real person) has a few muppets around him, including Kermit, and he says "KERMIT! I AM YOUR GUEST!" and the muppets look at the camera going side to side singing "This is our GUEST!" (like in Beauty & The Beast)

It is John Cleese, but I just wanted to comment on something.

They sing "This is your guest" as a pun on the line "This is my quest" from the song "The Impossible Dream", which was the song the Muppets planned for John to do (but he refused- in the episode, anyway; it's part of the plot). If you see the whole sketch you'll get it, because they go on to sing "This is your guest, to follow that star, no matter how hopeless, no matter how far. To dream the impossible dream!"

Hope this helps.

Cleese: I am not going to do some (????) Morrocan solo!
Kermit: Well, it doesnt have to be a solo. Comon guys!
(various Muppet monsters and pigs surround Cleese)
Cleese: There is no way that I'll do a song!
Monsters: (singing) There is no way that he'll do a song!
Cleese: Stop this at once!
Monsters: (singing) We will stop this at once!
Cleese: This is not funny!
Monsters: (singing) Oh, we hope this is funnnnyyyyyy!

Great bit!

I agree. I really like that one. For those of you who don't have it, it's on volume four of "The Best of the Muppet Show" Video/DVD collection.

Your best bet is to go to Timelife.com. I had the 800 number before, but it's saved on my computer which doesn't work. :frown:
