SCREENING

The Muppet Show A Little Song. . . A Little Dance. . .: Julie Andrews / Gene Kelly

Ongoing

Episodes 41 and 97.Music fills The Muppet Show in episodes featuring legendary performers Julie Andrews and Gene Kelly. Andrews reprises “The Lonely Goatherd” from The Sound of Music and sings (and co-wrote) a special “Song for Kermit.” In his episode, Gene Kelly arrives as a spectator and has to be tricked into performing, eventually teaching Kermit to dance and joining Miss Piggy in a duet. Although his episode aired as the first episode of the fifth season, Kelly holds the distinction

of appearing in the last episode of The Muppet Show taped.
