So I was checking out youtube about two weeks ago when I saw an old clip of the Muppets, I guess around the time ESB just came out or just before ROTJ came out. It's an episode regarding SW with Luke, 3po and r2 d2. I wasn't alive when this came out,and with the poor quality of the video I couldn't exactly tell if it was Mark or not. The voice sounded a little weird, but that could've just been the poor quality of the video and audio.

Was this Mark on the Muppets?

Yeah, I remember that episode. It was Mark. He was playing himself as well as Luke the character. It's also the same show where you get the Gonzo-Vader icon you see around the boards from time to time.

There's an article in an old Star Wars Insider devoted to the Muppet episode. It's the one with Mace on the front with his purple lightsabre.

As a die-hard Muppet fan, I remember this episode and was so excited, my 6-year-old head nearly exploded when the two worlds collided! (not unlike my uber-spaz-out before when the Droids landed on Sesame Street).

It was commercially available on a Best of Muppet Show DVD a few years back - you can likely easily find it on ebay.

I was exactly the same way -- Star Wars and the Muppet Show coming together was, to my childlike brain, the greatest team-up since that one guy with a chocolate bar bumped into that other guy carrying peanut butter. peace

BTW, if i remember correctly, in the Sesame Street episode with R2 & 3PO, didn't R2 fall in love with a fire hydrant? I seem to remember that very bizarre occurence.
