STAR WARS meets the Muppets

When Mark Hamill guest stared on The Muppet Show back in the 1970s, he brought along a few friends... Chewbacca, C3PO, R2D2 and Hamill's "cousin," Luke Skywalker. Even for the Muppets this was a very peculiar episode, culminating in the epic musical number you see below. C-3PO does a surprisingly graceful soft-shoe, Miss Piggy shows up sporting a Princess Leia double-bun hairdo, and then it all inexplicably turns into a visit to Disneyland... Dear lord, the '70s were a weird time.

I saw this clip on Youtube maybe a year ago, and by the time I sent the link to a friend the clip had been taken down. So, if you want to see this, I strongly suggest you get your click on right now. Start your Sunday off right, with dancing droids.
