Bruce Forsyth is the guest star in The Muppet Show episode 13.
Heres Glens fond look back…
This episodes guest star is a man who needs little introduction, Mr. Bruce Forsyth.
Hardly surprising, as he sports a rather smashing suit and dances magnificently.
The song originally featured in Stephen Sondheims musical,Gypsy.
The show also sees Brucie try out his stand-up skills.
One of the funnier, if not the funniest, takes on this sketch so far this series.
Brucies closing musical number is an excellent duet ofLet There Be Lovewith Miss Piggy.
Ever wanted to see the Muppets tackle the theme of incest?
Risque themes arent unusual inThe Muppet Show, but I was still quite surprised with this.
Another successful example of the recycling old material.
The Forsyth material was tremendous, as was the other material that made up the rest of the show.
This is one of the most consistently entertaining episodes seen so far in The Muppet Shows first season.
