Aired February 27, 1976.
Excuse the timecode... Here's the opening scene to the episode, which the Muppets appeared on to promote The Muppet Show. Thought it might be nice to upload this as a tribute to Des O'Connor, who recently passed at the age of 88. Plus this is a really fun and rare bit that introduced the Muppets to the UK!
Thank you for uploading this - when I posted about it on Instagram as a tribute to Des O'Connor last week, I got a huge response from people who didn't know this even existed!
This was shown seven months before The Muppet Show premiered on TV, so was the first look at what we could expect to see.
Weird hearing early Waldorf not voiced by Jim.
And George not voiced by Frank Oz.
After all Jim was already doing Kermit and Frank had Sam
I had no idea who Des O'Connor was until now.
He has a variety show on NBC summer of 1970 1971! Have several of his albums! Handsome singer and comic! Pass at away recently at 88!
It just occured to me, this is using the same laugh track as The Muppet Show
Yes, I heard that too. And the effect in the laugh track at 1:40, which sounds like an shaky «Oooh», repeats itself too much in The Muppet Show very often.
FINALLY!!! Been waiting a long time to see this ☺️
Do you have a copy of the full episode? Thanks!
Hold it...hold it, hold it, hold it. Hold it hold it hold it hold it hold it hollllld it. Waldorf's first named is CONRAD? At 0:48.
What the hell happened to Waldorf’s voice?! Who the hell voiced my main heckling man?
It sounds like Jerry Nelson to me, and this wasn’t the first time Jerry performed him. He once did so a year or so prior for a couple of Muppet Meeting Films.

We finally learned Waldorf's first name.
Ooh! I've been wanting to see this!
