The Wonderful World of T-Shirts

Kermit the Frog and the Salesman.

In this 1978 sketch, Kermit the Frog goes to a T-shirt shop, The Wonderful World of T-Shirts, to pick up another personalized "Kermit the Frog T-Shirt". The T-Shirt Salesman pulls out a shirt that reads Kermit the Gorf. Kermit thinks this is a mistake and gets upset, but then a customer named Kermit the Gorf comes in asking for his shirt. The T-Shirt Salesman continues to bring out T-Shirts with more "mispellings" of Kermit the Frog's name, which all end up belonging to other customers, continually frustrating Kermit.
