Thank goodness it wasn’t Manimal vs. Animal.

on the one hand, it seems to me that animal cheats rather badly.
on the other hand, animal seems so far jenseits von everything that it’s kinda impertinent even to raise the question.
i did like the part after the contest when he squints and blinks mightily, as though even he had suffered a struggle to keep his eyes fixed and open.
and floyd so consistent with his character–almost as good as his “old man frog” line in the dudley moore clip.
whatever those muppeteers are paid, they earn it. brilliant.

Don’t let anyone ever tell you you aren’t perspicacious.

Not even Zach Galifianakis could keep a straight face through that. Brilliant.
