Happy Funshine Friday! Last week, I posted a Sesame Street tune and that has inspired me to keep on the Henson track. Here’s two short and sassy clips from The Muppet Show circa 1977. The first features guest host, Vincent Price, and in the second, The Swedish Chef cooks up some Fishie Chowder. Børk! Børk! Børk!
Previously on Funshine Friday: ‘Sesame Street,’ ‘The People in Your Neighborhood’ (1971)
When I was a kid it took a while to realize that the Swedish Chef had “human” hands, that the puppeteers real hands were used rather than a glove. Funny stuff.
I still find myself imitating him at inappropriate times.
