Oh, the Horror

So in lieu of a stirring opening to this week's blog, I'm going to link to a story I wrote. It's a 5 page script and it involves horror movie cliches.

TOP TEN: MUPPETS--- No sesame street muppets eligible


10. Sam the Eagle: Never quite got what was going on, and often had hilariously stupid speeches.

9. Rowlf: Good for a good quip now and again. Was overshadowed by the more loud mouth muppets.

8. Gonzo: Not as funny as some people think, but watching a strange looking muppet having a creepy relationship with a chicken is a good time.

7. Animal: If you don't know why animal is funny, kill yourself. This is probably lower than Animal is on most lists.

6. Swedish Chef: Ah Borka Borka Borka. Who cares if you can't tell what the hell he's saying, it's still hilarious.

5. Miss Piggy: A psychotic woman who smells like bacon. She is the perfect foil for Kermit and is very popular in her own right. Plus she was a Pig in Space

4. Beeker: Meep Meep Meep Meep Meep. The eternally suffering assistant of Dr. Bunson Honeydew of Muppet Labs. You can pretty much bank that he will blow up at some point.

3. Rizzo the Rat: A wiseass rat. What else is there to say.

2. Statler and Waldorf: The guys in the balcony, and yes they count as one. They sit in a balcony and insult the muppets, in particular Fozzie, and basically rip on everyone. So yes, they are my heroes.

1. Kermit the Frog: Well, no kidding huh. Famous the world over and instantly recognizable as an American Icon.

Where is Fozzie you ask? Well I hate Fozzie and I don't think he's funny. I would have put Scooter, Lew Zealand, Dr. Teeth and the rest of the band ahead of that bucket of poop.
