Actually, Bobby McFerrin guest starred on an episode of The Jim Henson
Hour, and was very good as I recall. But that's no reason not to have him
on Muppets Tonight. Just a little trivia.

He would be perfect!! I'd love to see both Mr. Bean and Blackadder visit
the Muppets. The two characters are such polar opposites that there's
ample opportunity for comedy. Just think, Muppets could be the first
place where Atkinson's most famous characters meet for the first time (or
keep happening to fail to meet, just missing each other... :). TTFN.
In the same vein, how about Matt Frewer? My only concern is that
the human guests are sort of supposed to be straight men to the insanity
around them - but Garth Brooks did pretty well jumping right in. Of course,
I guess Matt would have to get well-known again before they had him on MT!
Maybe in a movie?

I'm curious; why do all of you people have a desire to see so many
professonal comedians on the show? IMHO these are usually the worst
shows that the muppets do. I'd much rather see Anthony Hopkins, Jack
Nicholson, Ozzy Osbourne, Bela Fleck, etc. than Jim Carrey or Robbin
Williams.

Um. . .I really think you're mistaken here. According to the Cardiff
Movie Database, Idle has never played a role in any Hitchhikers project
(however, he was a voice in the Transformers movie, I had forgotten
that). Douglas Adams is the only non-Python to have ever written for
the show (except maybe Neill Innes) but I think that street only goes
one way.

Wouldn't work. He's in Idaho doing bad stand-up comedy. No, I mean
really bad. But every now and then he does a guest interview for the
local radio station, and that's not too bad. I think someone else writes
his stuff then.

He does a guest interview for a local radio station in Sweden? Not the

We might have to settle for Dean Cain. Teri Hatcher would be nice,
though the people spreading those anorexia rumors have a certain point.
She's been looking rather gaunt lately. Anyway, as I recall, she can
sing, which is a plus. She's hosting SNL next week, which could be
either a plus or a minus.
