And so, it all comes down to this. The Muppets were created in 1955, and nearly 60 years later, we’re about to definitively determine which one is the absolute greatest; this is obviously a fully scientific process that will present an undisputed champion. Your final two Muppets are:
Animal vs. Beaker
The uncontrollable dummer vs. the abused lab assistant. The wild vs. the meek. The hard to understand vs. the even harder to understand. A battle of epic proportions. This is the most important decision you will ever make. CHOOSE WISELY.
Voting will end Monday night, and the winner will be announced on Tuesday, April 8.
The voting in the Final Four semifinals was as follows:
(2) Animal (50.4%) defeats (2) Swedish Chef (49.6%)
For the second straight round, Animal advanced by a single vote. So if you voted for Animal, well done; he literally couldn’t have done it without you.
Swedish Chef had a strong run, maybe stronger than I expected. But I did love his fake Swedish singing that always ended with “bork bork bork.”
(2) Beaker (54.5%) defeats (2) Statler & Waldorf (45.5%)
I’m starting to think that this is Beaker’s world and we’re just living in it. That Master of Meep rolls on yet again, this time leaving the balcony duo in his dust.
Statler & Waldorf are sometimes my favorites, depending on my mood. No one has ever heckled better. I can only imagine what they’d have to say about this result.
