Episode Summary

EDIT

AIRED: 5/24/79

In a change of pace, the Muppets intend to perform Robin Hood for the audience. The parts are quickly chosen – Kermit as Robin Hood, Fozzie as Little John, Gonzo as the Sheriff of Nottingham, Lynn Redgrave as Maid Marian, etc. Naturally, this proves to be far from a serious take on the material. Meanwhile, Miss Piggy didn't get a part at all and is jealous of Lynn. To that end, she intends to be Maid Marian by any means necessary.moreless

Hands down the best episode of the third season. Change can be a risky thing sometimes when it comes to the well established format of shows or anything for that matter. However in this case the change was well worth the risk. This episode is just as terrific today as it was when I first saw it when I was a kid over thirty years ago. The laughs just don't stop. The songs are terrific. Kermit's fights with the castle guards are great. As corny as the jokes are in those scenes ("Mine cost $1.95!") they are rip roaring hysterical. This episode is not just the best of the season, it is in my opinion, the best episode of "The Muppet Show" period. Make time to see it as soon as you can! Cavort! Cavort! Cavort!moreless
