No I’m not talking about somebody you know who you think is an idiot. That would be a whole other blog post. I’m talking about The Muppet Show, one of my favourite programmes when I was growing up. It was a regular Saturday evening appointment for the whole family, and I’m not ashamed to say I really miss it! They just don’t make stuff like that anymore sadly. Jim Henson was a genius.

After getting all nostalgic on Youtube the other night, I thought I’d write this little post.

There were a lot of great characters in the show, but my favourite was always Animal (though Gonzo was pretty cool too!). I mean what’s not to like? He’s a talented musician who is passionate about his drums, an all round entertainer, and sometimes he could even be a teeny bit romantic!

So, who’s your favourite?

I’ll leave you with this piece of genius…
