Beaker, my favorite Muppet for reasons unknown (Maybe because he resembles my friend Ben? Because he is a man of few words?) performs Beethoven’s ”Ode to Joy.” Check out the cameo from Statler and Waldorf at the end.

It’s so cute to watch you guys only be 7 months behind the rest of the internet.

Wow, I needed a good laugh on this post holiday Monday morning. Thanks
Sadly, I went to German camp for a few summers and actually know the lyrics to this song.
i like this muppet
Behind the times or not, I hadn’t seen it yet and LOVED it!!! I’ll join Statler & Waldorf in watching it again!
Oddly enough, I was just declaring my love for Beaker last week. This clip was awesome!
Well Jim, if your New Year’s resolution was ‘To be less of a d i c k’, you’ve failed.
I’m so glad the rest of the world has caught up to my Beaker love! In the 80’s he and Janis were always my favorite Muppets and no one ever agreed…
okay, that pretty much made my morning. and on a monday, that is very needed.
I love me some Beaker. He is so cute.
Yah!
Thanks for the Muppet happy on my first Monday back at work after the holidays. E, why is it sad you know the lyrics to ‘Ode to Joy’? It’s an amazing piece of music – be proud!
Martha–mostly because German camp was a sucky experience for me. The lyrics just remind me of that.
That was pretty fantastic. I think the Beaker on the timpani may have been my favorite, his arms look HUGE next to the rest of him. If only my Beaker doll (purchased at Suncoast, god rest its soul) was here to see this. It’s at school right now, all by its lonesome.
Gotta love the Beaker.
Good thing I don;t do resolutions, eh ger?
This totally made my day.
Awesome. (:
that is excessive in its awesomeness.
Thank you for that one. Hilarious.
Ah, poor Beaker! He was always my favorite Muppet. His verse in the “Twelve Days of Christmas” still cracks me up every single time I hear it. Thanks–this made my morning.
