I bought the season 1 dvd today.


And i'm really enjoying it so far but i would like to know some things as it is my first viewing of any of the episodes.

1.When do pepe, the doc and beaker appear?
2.When does miss piggy's and gonzo's appearance change?
3.When (and if) is rainbow connection sung and what other famous songs are heard and when?

hi,
I can answer the last question, I don't believe Rainbow connection was sung in the show, it was sung in the muppet movie.

1. Pepe first appeared on Muppets Tonight in 90s. Not sure about Bunsen and Beaker.
2. I believe Piggy and Gonzo got their "make-overs" at the start of season two.

Just a heads up to everyone: Disney finally did a price-drop for all three seasons. You can get them for $20 a piece at Wal-Mart and about $22(ish) at Amazon. The price was the only reason I held off on getting them for so long.

Pepe was created for Muppets tonight, which aired in 1996 and 97. Bunsen shoes up in season one, they add Beaker in season 2. Piggy, Gonzo and Fozzie all get made over a bit in season two. Rainbow Connection was from The Muppet Movie (1979). I don't think it ever showed up on the show.
