Changes: V-chip

Revision as of 23:00, 9 May 2012

thumb|300px Three Public Service Announcements ran on the Odyssey Channel for the V-chip.

One was a spoof of "The Toreador Song" from Bizet's Carmen, another spoofed "Venus" by Shocking Blue, showing Kermit, Bunsen, Beaker and three rats, and the third was a version of Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer", featuring Kermit and Pepe the King Prawn (in a hockey mask similar to that from Friday the 13th).

The setting for "The Toreador Song" was seemingly meant to be the Muppet Theater, as indicated by the red curtains and the inclusion of Statler and Waldorf, seen at the end in their box. It included Three Tenor-like pig singers, Kermit, and Miss Piggy.
