The Muppets quotes

  • Miss Piggy's Receptionist: Miss Piggy?

    Miss Piggy: [as she's eating a doughnut] What? Can't you see that I'm busy?

  • [Tex and Uncle Deadly are atop the Muppet Theater with a pair of boltcutters about to shut off the power]

    Tex Richman: To the end of the Muppets!

    [Uncle Deadly grabs the boltcutters to stop Tex]

    Tex Richman: Deadly! What are you doing?

    Uncle Deadly: Enough! Just because I have a terrifying name and an evil English accent, does not preclude the fact that, in my heart, I am a Muppet, not a Moopet! Looks like it's I who will have the last laugh!

    Tex Richman: What does that mean?

    Uncle Deadly: It's an idiom, you idiot, because you cannot laugh! Ha ha!

    [Tex falls off the roof and lands on the ground with a thud]

    Uncle Deadly: Oopsie.

    [he laughs]

    Tex Richman: Deadly.

    Uncle Deadly: Now *that's* a maniacal laugh for you!
