My wife called Fonzie "Fonzo", and now I can't help but imagine Muppet Happy Days. (lemmy.world)

Obviously that means Gonzo plays Fonzie, breaks the jukebox worse when he hits it, then says something about "picking up chicks" and leaves with Camilla.

Kermit is probably Richie, Scooter is Potsie, and Fozzie is Ralph.

I haven't thought out the rest of the casting, but Ted McGinley should definitely come in as the token human to end out the bit.

Oh, absolutely. They're supposed to be an acting troupe, right? Make an anthology show where each episode is a self-contained Muppetized version of a classic TV show. Muppet Cheers could be fun too, or MASH if they kept to the lighter side of it.

    Brilliant ideas. I'd (re-)watch stuff like this throughout the year. Ofcourse I would hope for more than one off episodes.

    The Muppet show already had a surgery room situation that worked, so translating that to a MASH one would be fine imo.
