TV Clip of the Moment - The Muppet’s Bohemian Rhapsody

A Queenly salute to Rock n Roll Royalty.

Jim Henson and his most famous creation exposed



John Doe knows he is not alone in his love affair with the puppeteer maestro Jim Henson and all the imaginative creations that sprung from his fantastic cerebrum (The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth etc).

The ebullient response JD got to his reviewing Season 1 of the seminal variety show and sharing The Muppet Movie Poster Collection provides more than enough impetus for Johnny to post this latest musical delight from the timeless masters of childish mayhem.

Take a good look, you may never see Bohemian Rhapsody the same way
Always aware of their parodies place in the lexicon of pop culture and respecting the inspirations obsessive fan base. Here the personality disordered, eccentric cloth creations rework Queen’s epic rock anthem Bohemian Rhapsody with hilarious results.


Pure genius, it’s hard cite a favourite moment with the “Swedish Chef”, “Beeker” and “Gonzo’s Chickens” all bringing their A-Game to harmonized hilarity. “Animal” goes off on his own mama frenzied tangent and that bovine bitch Miss Piggy naturally thinks it’s all about “moi”.

So grab a coffee, make sure you aren’t sipping it as you press play and bask in magical delight that proves truly great art never ages, it just evolves.

The Muppet’s do Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody.

What JD?! Your least favourite?! He's probably not my personal fav but he's always gonna be up there...

Regardless, thanks for the video - great stuff! A modern Muppet video that really captures the magic of the original show.

Hi Matt,

I know its an exception to the rule but its the crazy lunacy of The Muppets that have always attracted me and kermit is the straight man after all. Then again I preferred Dean to Jerry so there you go.

The clip really does encapsulate the essence of what is great about the Muppets and its wonderful that after all this time it still retains the genius.

Always a pleasure having you drop by.

I've always loved the Muppets and Queen, so this rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody is just fantastic. I hear there's another Muppet movie coming soon. Hopefully it would be in 3D as well.


Cheers!

Hi Linh,

It is surprising that Queens parody style of rock and The Muppet's didn't collide sooner. So exciting to see the genius of Jim Henson channeled through the next generation of creators and this video encourages me to keep a close watch on their antics.

I'm not sure if 3D Muppet's would work for me, even though I am a sucker for the technology...but i wait patiently for the end results.

Thanks for the visit, any Muppet' fan is a friend of mine.
