Fozziemonolouge

Fozzie Bear performing a monologue in the fifth season.

A list of Fozzie Bear's comedy acts from The Muppet Show, frequently criticized by Statler and Waldorf. During the first season, the monologues usually followed the format of Fozzie telling bad jokes while being heckled, but following the first season, they often involved some kind of gimmick, although Fozzie still performed the standard monologues on occasion.

The pilot version of the series' first episode featured a monologue by Fozzie, which was cut from the broadcast version. He also performed comedy acts in It's The Muppet Show!, The Muppet Movie, Disney Extreme Digital, and a comic in the last issue of Disney Adventures, among other venues.
