We're Going to Go Back There Someday

Richard and Jerry were such a dynamic duo. I love this video of their work together. Especially Richard’s shriek, and the comparison of their laughs.

Believe me when I say, these are the BEST Muppet bloopers ever. Please, please WATCH. You get to watch Frank Oz’s sanity slowly slip away. Priceless.
“Hubba wah?! HUBBA HUBBA HUBBA WAH?! Hubba WAH?!?”

Thank You, Jerry for all your talent, your songs, your friendship, and your incomparable kindness and generosity. We miss you and wish you the best.”

I strongly recommend everyone watch this. It’s a look at the behind-the-scenes of the making of Muppet Christmas Carol. It gives us all a real nice idea of what all goes into each and every Muppet production.
I may or may not have yelled “WHITMIRE, LOOK HOW ADORABLE YOU ARE WITH YOUR HAIR” at my computer screen several times (it’s been a while since I’ve seen this clip). But, oh my goodness, everyone is so young (especially David Rudman, holy frack, look at his face). Jerry and Frank are always such a treat when they share their insight, especially since we don’t really get that anymore nowadays with them both being retired and all. And I love how much Goelz and Whitmire we get. They’re such pals, it’s awesome. My favorite part is when Dave messes up (around 5:23). You can just tell by Steve’s face he knows Dave’s biffed it, and then they just laugh. Plus they’re both super goddamn adorable. Love, love, love it.
(Yup, I just reposted the exact text I wrote up for this clip last year. Don’t care, it still holds up.)
