The Fantastic Miss Piggy!

By RcktMan on April 1, 2008

It’s no secret that Miss Piggy is someone very, very special. But did you know that she once had her own TV special? Now THAT is SPECIAL!

This 1982 special starring the fantastic Miss Piggy, voiced by the amazing Frank Oz, is called “The Fantastic Miss Piggy Show!”

The show had it all: Miss Piggy sings. Miss Piggy dances. Miss Piggy gets lowered in a pink bubble like Glinda the Good Witch in the Wizard of OZ. It’s fabulous. It’s gay. It’s glamorous. It’s hysterical! I suspect that many a budding drag queen saw this and was immediately inspired.

I am posting her opening number, “There’ll Be Some Changes Made Today,” in honor of the new and improved Feast of Fools website!

And the piéce de resistance is Piss Miggy.. er.. Miss Piggy performing Gloria Gaynor’s disco classic “I Will Survive.” Miss Piggy has survived quite well and so has the Feast of Fools. Happy Birthday, Feast of Fools!
