The Muppet Show Season 1 Episode 20

When Kermit asks Animal if he likes the theme, he starts to agree until Floyd prompts him otherwise. This is the only indication in the first season that Floyd has some kind of caretaking role with Animal.

Floyd’s “Fugue for Frog” probably was ahead of its time in 1976. 25 years later after a thriving alternative music scene, it doesn’t sound that bad in retrospect. It actually doesn’t seem that far removed from the opening theme of The Muppet Show: Sex & Violence.

PUPPETEER SPOTTING: Dave Goelz’s head can be seen throughout practically

the entire One Note Samba number in the crevice in the set dividing Zoot from Animal’s drumkit.
