Line 57:
*** Parodied in ''[[Greg the Bunny]]''.
*** Also parodied somewhat on ''Crank Yankers''.
*** ''[[Wonder Showzen]]'' completely and utterly thrashes this show around in their yard.
** ''[[Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas]]''
** ''Mr. Willoughby's Christmas Tree''
** Some of the dinosaurs from ''[[Dinosaurs]]'', at least the ones that aren't played by actors in costumes, that is.
* Not to mention such programs as ''The Jimmy Dean Show'' and ''The [[Ed Sullivan Show]]''.
* And earliest of all, ''[[Sam and Friends]]'', a locally-produced late '50s children's show on a Washington D.C. station, which featured Henson performing several Muppet characters, including an embryonic Kermit the Frog.
** On the other end of the spectrum, the earliest episodes of ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' had sketches with muppets (not ''The Muppets'' per se, but original characters). Sadly, the [[Animation Age Ghetto]] came into play and the Muppet sketches were withdrawn.
