just when we thought this group of
hilarious puppets couldn’t get any
funnier these celebrities proved us
wrong
and Here Come welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top 10 celebrity guest stars on
the Muppet Show for this list we ranked
our favorite performances by stars who
appeared on the show
listen pal we’re on a mission there’s no
way we’re gonna be involved in any
third-rate variety show nothing more
complicated than that now it’s time to
get things started on the most
sensational inspirational celebrational
muppet ational list
number ten
mr. Peter sours after busting our guts
as Inspector Clouseau in the Pink
Panther series this British actor took
his comedic chops and many personalities
to the Muppet theatre stage for the
show’s second season yes there used to
be a me but I had it surgically removed
he’s a delight in the cold open
reprising his famous role dressed in
iconic detective garb but there’s way
more it was to have been a grand
impersonation of her late Majesty Queen
Victoria things really get hysterical
when he spoofs another of his most
immortal personas the next thing I must
do is to test out the elasticity of the
tendons in the leg areas soon going by
the name of dr. Marek Verdi gleba which
translates to dr. Strangelove in German
cellars plays a German masseur who gives
link hog throb a very memorable massage
delivered in the inimitable cellar style
that earned the actor an Emmy nomination
for his hosting duties some losses in
such good condition oh I can tell a good
Muslim in a few run number nine what are
you rich
this jazz musician was widely regarded
as one of the most technically
proficient drummers of all time
and this penultimate episode of the
series which originally aired in 1981
allowed him to really strut his stuff
Kermit is suitably impressed with the
display of his amazing technique as he
plays percussion on a variety of items
on his way to the stage in a blackout
but that’s just a warm-up when the host
and resident Muppet drum expert animal
go head-to-head rich shows just what he
can do on a real drum set animal didn’t
stand a chance
the lights again
number 8 Rita Moreno
despite the greatness of animals
performance with Buddy Rich
he was even funnier when he got to
perform opposite this Broadway star in
1976 in one of the series first episodes
Moreno is one of the few performers ever
to of won an Oscar Grammy Tony and Emmy
and it’s this appearance that earned her
that Emmy we’d say it’s a well deserved
honor but there are others who might
take offense by coup I like the guy who
holds the cue cards you need proof her
dancing singing and comedy chops are on
lock but just watch her perform the
classic tune fever with your favorite
shaggy hair drummer who does his best to
get in the way and you’ll see what we
mean number 7
mr. Vincent Price this performer had a
storied career including appearances in
classic horror films like the original
House of Wax
murdered torture execution scared the
living daylights out of people I don’t
care for that kind of image and on
Michael Jackson’s Thriller album but his
Muppets show appearance in 1977 allowed
him to demonstrate his considerable
comedic flair can I give you a hand oh
please that’s my kind of joke which is
part of the series appeal in that it
lets serious actors relax and be
themselves well I have asked two of my
culinary friends to join us tonight on
your immediate right is PL aku’s one of
the world’s great chefs a pleasure on
top of being a great first season
episode it also marks the first time
that the mood of an entire show was
built around the guests quickly quickly
prepare a dungeon chains medicals bind
me the episodes horror vibe inspires
great moments and even lets kermit play
against type as a vampire you’re always
turning into a vampire well how do you
do that
number six mr. John plays although this
hysterical British comedian had many
amazing moments as a member of Monty
Python I thought in your dinner
direction your mother was a hamster and
your father’s mate of elderberry his
work with the Muppets produced
similarly memorable bits in this 1977
episode which pleased himself had a hand
in writing
it is pirate of the seven seas
particular note is Cleese’s Long John
Silver’s team sketch where he shares the
stage with an especially talkative
parrot harkening back to monty python’s
famous dead parrot sketch of course hmm
always the same no one could play angry
as amusingly as Cleese and the Muppets
take advantage of that talent get done
there we are going to birth your arms an
ascending but even when at his nastiest
with Kermit please is clearly having a
ball I’m sorry that that’s our mistake
I’m sorry we just got confused alright
we’ll just I take it out on curtains
number five yes Julie answer one of our
favorite things is this sound of music
stars performance with the Muppets in
1978 although she’d already appeared on
many TV specials with them previously hi
on who was a lonely fitting in perfectly
with her co-stars Andrews is marvelous
reprising the lonely goatherd from the
classic film accompanied by yodeling
Muppet animals but that’s far from all
she does in the episode now you were
saying Julie Oh what I was doing I hate
to interrupt Julie excuse me Kermit
coming did you ask to see the flying
zucchinies human cannonball at uh not
right now Farley I shall go tell my wife
on a particular highlight is the tender
and sweet song she wrote for and sings
to Kermit when you were a tadpole her
amazing charisma throughout the episode
keeps it consistently strong guess what
number four the stars on Star Wars a few
months before the 1980 release of The
Empire Strikes Back
c-3po r2d2 and Luke Skywalker reunited
with the voice of Yoda Luke Skywalker
one of the heavenly bodies change also
known as Fozzie Miss Piggy Sam Eagle
animal or simply Frank Oz on this fourth
season episode of The Muppet Show hunnit
hunnit yep get my channel
yes no no no he’s my cosmic landing in
the Muppet Theater in search of
Chewbacca Luke refuses to perform but
fortunately we think his cousin Mark
Hamill is happy to oblige Hey look Nick
me
I’ll go get my cousin
later on Luke’s back and is faced with
first mate Miss Piggy standing in for
Princess Leia naturally she can’t keep
her hands off of him the result is a
hysterical sci-fi parody which brings
out the best in Hamill and the Muppets
this means we must resort to the
ultimate weapon oh and boy deep 20 what
pray tell might that be
Chewbacca the Wookiee number 3 mr. Steve
Martin while episodes of The Muppet Show
are usually punctuated by a laugh track
this is one show where canned laughter
wasn’t necessary I didn’t even use a nap
this hysterical comedian was so funny as
a guest star in this 1977 episode that
the usual laugh track was mostly
replaced by the backstage laughter of
Muppet cast members what am i around
here nothing Steve I I don’t know what
to say
well I do excuse me
Martin’s juggling and balloon animal
making along with his irresistible
charisma and unique comic persona get a
great showcase here puppy dog oh so cute
thank you very much Martin is also a
talented banjo player and he gets a good
chance to show off his skills in the
performance of Dueling Banjos backed by
a variety of Muppet characters
number two mr. Elton John this rock star
is exuberant personality and flamboyant
fashions made him a perfect fit for the
Muppets it’s great to be here even my
lunch likes me but by the time he
appeared on the show in 1978 Sir Elton
was sick of the get-ups and requested
that he not do the crazy costumes and
huge glasses Oh coming I thought you
were more professional than that they
must have come to some kind of agreement
cuz we were not let down in the wild
outfit Department his performance of
Crocodile Rock backed by a chorus of
puppet Crocs is particularly hilarious
and no one can ever forget his duet with
Miss Piggy on don’t go breaking my heart
I’m gonna reckon you
even if Sam the eagle wasn’t a fan Sir
Elton certainly won us over
if Mozart wore high heels wigs and
stockings I’ll eat my hat and give Elton
John a big introduction not true
hey guys look at this great picture of
Mozart Elton John humans before our
number one pick takes his or her curtain
call
here are some honorable mentions the
rain comes tumbling down till the rain
comes in
ah
Oh
he come from the mountain building on
mountain the mountain to the world
around drop out and go back to the world
around her
I’m Jackson
number one Alice Cooper as mentioned The
Muppet Show was a great way for stars to
show their softer sides never was this
more true than for Alice Cooper sir I
think there’s something you should know
yes these monsters aren’t ours I know
they’re mine one of the most
controversial rockers of the era known
for outrageous onstage antics like
beheading live chickens welcome to my
night the rock star was able to make his
persona family-friendly enough to
deliver a standout performance and he
made the Muppets a bit edgier in the
process Rudi’s Posey got the name Alice
oh it’s a family name he was named after
a maiden uncle the show’s creators built
a hysterical show around Cooper’s
fascination with horror this is the bill
from special effects and it features
Cooper as Satan’s agent who’s trying to
get the Muppets to sell their souls well
then just sign this contract
yes I have a friend that runs a service
he could guarantee to make sure and when
he gets musical as in the hard-rocking
school’s out
he creates some of the show’s finest
ever musical segments

think so when I wrote it
