Hey-o!
I've see The Jimmy Dean Show mentioned as an early place where Jim Henson
worked. I hadn't seen Our Place mentioned and had forgotten about the show.
However, Jack Burns was The Muppet Show's first head writer and shares writing
credits with Jerry Juhl on The Muppet Movie. He was part of Burns and
Schreiber, a comedy duo I remember loving as a kid. Our Place was their show
after proving themselves at Second City.
The below is the first part of one of their shows. Watch it and be amazed at
how close to The Muppet Show the humour is. It even has Rowlf Dog!
