Synopsis
By the end of its five-year run on television, The Muppet Show had transformed its motley cast from fistfuls of felt to multi-media celebrities. Sophisticated and highly individuated, each of the Muppets embodied a conventional character type from classic television comedy. Kermit functioned as straight man to the majority of the show's jokes. Miss Piggy, the resident diva, evolved from first season chorus girl to full-fledged megastar. A Costello to Kermit's Abbot, Fozzie peddled his vaudevillian shtick to a tough audience, but his genuine sweetness made him lovable even when his jokes were lame. These essays represent the work and ideas of a global community of scholars and Muppet enthusiasts, providing a unique perspective on just how Kermit and the rest of the frogs, dogs, bears, and chickens became cultural icons with influences reaching far beyond the world of 1970s television comedy., By the end of its five-year run on television, ""The Muppet Show"" had transformed its motley cast of characters from mere fistfuls of felt to true multi-media celebrities. This book contains essays that present the work and ideas of a global community of scholars and Muppet enthusiasts.

- m***1 (11)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoopItem is in good condition, if not slightly better than good. It has a sticker on the cover and some slight smudges on the back, but the pages look and feel practically the same as a new book. For some reason, the sender was HPB; I am assuming that they work with AlibrisBooks. Regardless, seller has proven to be reliable and I am happy with the purchase.
