061 - The Muppet Movie ("I Miss My Pudding") (w/ Danielle Brown)
Monday, 24 November, 2025
The Muppet Movie is a 1979 musical road comedy, and the feature film debut of The Muppets, Jim Henson's famed ensemble of puppet characters. Produced by Henson himself, the film was directed by James Frawley and written by Muppet Show writers Jerry Juhl and Jack Burns, and followed the origin story of the puppet troupe as Kermit The Frog travels across the country to make it big in Hollywood, meeting a cavalcade of friends along the way. The film starred Henson and Muppet ensemble players like Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, Richard Hunt, and Dave Goelz, with human performances by Austin Pendleton and time-defying legend and cryptozoological enigma Charles Durning, a plethora of cameos from the likes of Dom DeLuise, Madeline Kahn, Steve Martin, Mel Brooks, and many more, and featured a soundtrack by Kenneth Ascher and Paul Williams. (Mr. Sex himself!) The Muppet Movie was a major commercial and critical success, and was deemed culturally significant by the Library of Congress in 2009.On a new episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott close out #HotDurnAutumn with a screening of The Muppet Movie, joined by special guest and friend of the pod Danielle Brown. Join them for flawless Miss Piggy imitations, stentorian renditions of "America The Beautiful", and one last marveling at the gloriousness of Charles Durning in his endless quest to finally git that frawrgg.#HotDurnAutumn...with Lilz & Scott!
