Roger Miller and Muppets: two national treasures!

[@AbrasiousProductions]

I love how natural Roger is with the muppets❤

[@graceparikh1535]

I was on a road trip with my husband and this medley came on. He was in stitches when I knew all the words 😂

[@Danimal1577]

Roger Miller is a genius.

[@LenHummelChannel]

A truly brilliant and clever lyricist. and yes: in his own kind of way, he was a unique talent, even genius.

[@joeladams5200]

Yes

[@morgancook9222]

Not only a master of lyrics but he could turn a phase

[@calvinlam7272]

When Roger Miller in this episode mentioned he once had Cluck-itis, it’s an allusion to the fact that he voiced Alan-a-Dale the Rooster from Disney’s Robin Hood! 🐓

[@fairportfan2]

He also did the voice-over narration for Terence Hill's film "Lucky Luke" - as Jolly Jumper, Luke's horse.

[@stuccateur]

Not to mention he did the soundtrack

[@anthonyhengst2908]

Yes! I never thought of that.

I used to listen to Roger Miller in upstate NY on the farm where I lived from '63 to '66. Great memories.

"Chicken ain't chicken, 'til it's lickin'-good, fried." I'm sure many would agree, Roger!

[@jeffdawson2786]

The decision to use chicken Muppets with Roger was perfect.

[@royalanempire2965]

Especially when he sang in Robin hood.

[@MisterMikeTexas]

I miss Roger Miller! There'll never be another!

[@LittleBudd13]

And my therapist can't figure out why I make random sounds and say words that ain't words!

[@philipparogers5613]

This is the tonic the world needs during this covid crap Roger brings a smile to any face he's a genius always makes you laugh what a guy ...

[@frankbarnwell____]

Yeah, but ain't no mo. Rip

[@rusty8491]

Those Muppets are pretty good at it too.

[@chrismahfouz7709]

I loved the Muppet Show! I have memories as a small child, swinging on my little blue swing set in the backyard and singing “Dang Me” and “King of the Road.” I loved Roger Miller in Robin Hood and enjoyed sharing that movie with my children-they loved it too! RIP Roger Miller! ❤️❤️❤️❤️You made so many happy with your music.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@williamqubileemartin457]

I remember Roger when he was a fireman in Amarillo Texas.he played guitar with my dad.he liked white bread toast.butter. cinnamon.he liked my song.you can not horse trade with a mule skinner.Em.C.A.1-4-5.

"Chicken aint chicken till the chicken is fried!" "Keep On the Sunny Side". did we get these great Classics from this one man!!???🙌

[@geraldthebusdriver3491]

I find it awesome that Johnny Cash and Roger Miller were on one of my favorite shows growing up

[@blakehornsby5653]

And kris kristofferson

[@Jabberstax]

Kids TV back then was so much better than the crap shown to children today

[@Oldiesmann]

The Muppet Show was aimed at adults, not kids.

[@MisterMikeTexas]

It was a family show, but mainly for adults, like the original run of the Flintstones. Fred and Barney even starred in the cigarette and beer ads, which sponsored the show.

[@homeone4189]

Love Roger Miller

[@katierigby9407]

❤ my favorite song ever my favorite part is my uncle used to love me but died i love it😮

[@ambersalcove]

This gives me the giggles because i have been having a bad day

[@sweetcharity5426]

This makes my heart happy :))))))

[@Bentfingrr]

You can't take a shower in a parakeet cage but you can be happy if you've a mind to, all you got to do is put your mind to it-knuckle down, buckle down-do it, do it, do it!

[@OlafProt]

This is the best episode. My kids adore it

[@garycarpenter6433]

This is my bliss.

Chicken on the bass is awesome.

[@ziggy12657]

The muppets turned into chickens which was the plot when Roger Miller guest starred in Season 3.

[@kelseylacroix2762]

This will be stuck in my head for weeks

[@acureforuselesseyes]

I laughed out loud when he said "Buffalate" lol

[@nickhill8612]

@HQ Music Videos Haha yes I know right.

[@bobbilluck2222]

Lol 🤣🤣 Buffalate

[@elizabethalvarado8698]

And Roger almost did, too.

[@glennjohnson8170]

Glenn Johnson ......and,so glad to share it with you.Been years since i last saw this.Loved Roger Miller and as a tribute,i often perform some of these numbers in my stage show.Thanks a lot.

[@donnalichvarcik5588]

Roger played the singing rooster in Robin hood a great Disney legend

[@nashvilletennessee3194]

I'm surprised these chickens would sing chicken ain't chicken till it's fried! Say it ain't so!

[@artofbeautyvienna]

Still nice! Great musician

[@rnelson299]

Very cute!

[@scottlindhorst2748]

Did he have a cold? He kept clearing his throat and his singing sounded slightly off (but maybe it's just the audio) still fun to see him with muppets singing my favorite songs lol

[@marcocipriani9747]

Fantastico!

[@alextavalesthemuppetmaniac5607]

One of the songs You Can’t Roller Skate in the Buffalo Herd was previously sung in the Ruth Buzzi episode by the Gogolala Jubilee Jugband.

[@Stephen10528]

Anyone else 👍 this episode best?

[@battlejack1863]

He must have thought doing this bit quite amusing and entertaining

[@knightscroftsquire-muldoon]

Yup...

This is my favorite M.S. episode, followed by the Loretta Lynn one.

[@tiffanycarter5432]

If there was ever a singer that was a perfect match for the Muppets, it was Roger Miller. His brand of droll silliness was perfect for the Muppets.

[@nickhill8612]

@@tiffanycarter5432 Haha yes

[@alanoneill3065]

clever man!!!

[@gonota72]

You know you you made it when you were on the Mupper Show!! His song were totally random but great all the same!

[@james_cinnabond]

That was awesome and I dont even know why lol

[@JohnShinn1960]

It's Roger Miller, that's why!

[@donnalichvarcik5588]

The reason is because of great sketches music and celebrity guest stars

[@waynegoff764]

"My uncle used to love me but she died" WOW, Roger miller prophesied

[@oklahomahank2378]

He said someone, maybe a child, made that mistake repeating the title and he just went with it. By the way, the “uncle” part is not nonsense. He was raised by an uncle on a poor cotton farm in southwestern Oklahoma farm as his father died or ran off (I have read both) and his mother couldn’t take care of him.

[@evvignes]

Now I've got another name to throw out when people give me shit for playing and ovation guitar.

"My uncle used to love me but she died" Roger must have seen onto the future.

[@JustSomeCanadianGuy]

Anyone else think he looks like The Mandalorian? 😂

[@nickhill8612]

I guess so 😃😂

[@jasobres]

Roger Miller was a weirdo. Just listen to these nonsensical lyrics. That's what made him a good match for the Muppets.

[@TEMUistheworst]

Let's see.. I like the Muppet Show and Roger Miller but HATE Disney. What to do, what to do?
