      Gonzo is DM.

      Fozzie = wise cracking Bard

      Miss Piggy = Half-Oink Barbarian

      Kermit = Elven Ranger

      Animal = Wild magic Sorcerer

      Rolf Sam the Eagle = paladin

      Rolf = Druid

      Dr. Teeth: BBEG, trying to rule the realm with Electric Mayhem

        I like Rolf, but i think Sam the Eagle would be better a better choice as an uptight paladin.

        I think you’re trying to align the Muppets to what their personalities would be. Instead pick against type. Or as their off type. Gonzo has been the narrator in almost all the muppet versions of movies. So he’d be great at telling stories and winning over NPCs as a Bard.

          Or how about Gonzo as the wizard who keeps getting KO’d in silly/pathetic ways, only he seems way too into it?

    So kind of like Drunk History but with muppet dialogue instead of slurred speech?

    If so, I’m sold.

    Watch it? Hell, I’d crowdfund it if it wasn’t for the fact that Muppets are a Disney property. The House of the Mouse has more than enough cash to make this work.

    FWIW, this format would work with a bunch of awkward teens at the game table.

    You could also go the other way and re-release “Honor among Thieves” by constantly cutting away to the game table with hilarious die-rolls and the rest. Think: “Of Dice and Men”, or “Dorkness Rising”.

    You might enjoy HarmonQuest! Bonus fun fact: the DM was originally just an audience member when Dan Harmon came up with the idea and asked for a DM, but is now a regular cast member.

      Jack black is obnoxious but he really did nail the high school girl impression.

        I hate Jack Black’s acting.

        I completely agree with your opinion.

        It also works in Tropic Thunder.

            Bowser!

            I knew there were three roles I didn’t mind but couldn’t remember the third, that’s the one.

            On the flip side, I didn’t like Nacho Libre for the opposite reason, he felt too reserved.
