A lot of people from older generations comment on how you don't need to be crass or dirty to be funny and the key is knowing how to be a wiseass with timing. I think they may have a point
My dad saw this show for the first time and asked me why I was wasting time watching a kiddie show. I said "just watch it for a while". Within five minutes he was laughing his head off. The humor was sophisticated enough for adults , while kids loved the puppets.
Stantler: "Of course, that's why we always complain how pointless the show is". Waldorf: "Not entirely pointless, it makes us look better by comparison" Both: "Dohohohohohohoho"
Statler: "South Dakota!" Waldorf: "That's got nothin' to do with this show!" Statler: "That's what I want! Nothin' to do with this show!" Both: "Haw-haw-haw-haw-haw-haw!"
Worse...They perished a century ago. Neither Heaven nor Hell could handle their endless heckling, they were blessed with immortality & humanity is cursed with them till the End of Days.
(Miss Piggy leaves the Muppet house) Statler: Say, is breakfast over? Waldorf: I don't know, why? Statler: Because I think the bacon just ran out! DOHOHOHOHOHOHO
Now this is clean comedy that is appropriate for all ages, crosses cultural boundaries and takes a very long time to get old. It's a shame that comedy like this is no longer being produced on the main stream.
It's been decades since I've seen it but my favorite S&W moment was when Gonzo did one of his stunts that propelled him and a motorcycle(?) straight into the balcony box they were sitting in. The wreckage and their eyes wide open in shock were hilarious!
Stalter:hey this guy thinks his act of saying the number of dislikes will will make them stop Walter:what kind of act Is that? Stalter: An act of mercy! Both:DOHOHOHO
Waldorf: Y'know it's too bad gonzo's leaving this show. Statler: Yeah? I can think of some other people I'd rather see leave the show. Waldorf: Who? Statler: Me! Both: DOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!
Waldorf: You know, I think Nicki Minaj should change her name to Nicki Mirage. Statler: Why's that? Waldorf: Because then if we look at her, she'd disappear. Both: DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!
Waldorf: What are Lady Gaga's parents' names? Statler: Lady Ma ma & Lady Da da. Waldorf: I didn't know Lady Gaga's Dad is a Lady. Statler : her dad is a drag queen. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Muppets was a family show for everyone. Mom, Dad and the kids. Just great puppeteering and material. Always had a special guest and humor. These two guys would crack my Dad up! They are hilarious. Lol. I always liked that one where there are muppets around a campfire and they are singing, "Stop children, what's that sound, everybody look what's going round", and they are swaying their heads side to side while singing it. Great family show! Thanks for sharing the memories! 👍
Statler: Hey, Waldorf. I was wondering if maybe you'd... (mouthing words) Waldorf: Darn! I gotta get some new batteries for my hearing aid. Statler: Ha ha ha! I fool him everytime! Ha ha ha! Waldorf: **slap**
Waldorf (white haired) voice was like the elderly version of Ernie, Rowlf The Dog and Kermit The Frog. Waldorf, Ernie, Rowlf and Kermit were originally voiced by the late Jim Henson.
Statler: Hey Waldorf, I was wondering if maybe you- Waldorf: I better get some new batteries for my hearing aid. Statler: HA HA HA HA, I FOOL HIM EVERY TIME, AH HA HA HA- Waldorf: (Slaps)
Statler: Bernie Sanders, now that's a name I remember from elementary school. He was older than me even then. Waldorf: Why, was he in a higher grade than you? Statler: No, he was our teacher. Both: Doho hohoho hoho!
uncletaylorify Bernie Sanders lacks the intellect these two have. 1 brain cell from either of those two equals to all that Bernie Sanders has in his head. The rest is the Muppet Show. Statler and Waldorf: DOHOHOHOHO!
Waldorf: Well, the show is speeding along very quickly this evening. Statler: Oh yes, someone must have told them it's harder to hit a moving target! Heheh.
Statler: You know, I wonder if there really IS life on another planet.... Waldorf: Whadda you care? You don't have a life on THIS planet! DOHOHOHOHO! Statler: *grumble*
The best thing about these two is that nothing is ever good enough for them, but they're always there :)
It gets them out of the house. And they can always get the best seats at the theatre. Why? Because who else would pay for good seats at this show?

It's usually called delivery.
vivziepop needs to see this so badly
I feel like Statler and Waldorf should be judges on America's Got Talent.
Statler: Yeah but it's America.
Waldorf: There'd be no talent to judge.
DOHOHOHOHOH
I think that they'd also be a good fit on Guy's Grocery Games as the food judges for Guy Fieri.
They'd be bros with Gordon ramsey
If they are the judges, the only round we would get after the auditions would the grand final.
Dehydrated Water wrong, Bernie Sanders has no talent and no intellect. He would be laughed out by the original trolls.
The Muppet Show isn't the same without Statler and Waldorf heckling any act. They were the best part of the show. I always loved those two.
They passed away a few years back lol
R Sosa cause you can't replace actors.
R Sosa No, they are still with us, waiting to heckle the upcoming Muppet reboot.
Muppet movie. I'm enjoying the movie so far. It hasn't staryed yet. That's what I like about it.
Hey guys I heard there will be a muppets haunted mansion
"That wasn't half bad."
"It wasn't half good either."
"DOOOHOHOHOHOHO!"
No!, It was ALL BAD!!! Hue hue hue
Statler: hey Waldorf, I'm seeing ghosts!
Waldorf: Not surprising, This act died five minutes ago!
DOHOHOHOHOH

That's funny.
Good one!

I AGREE
They're not very sarcastic.

@@eviljoel Either they LOVE the show, or they have REALLY bad sarcasm, Dho ho ho

Those two old farts were sometimes funnier than the acts.
Sometimes?
Yep and getting funnier all the time
Stantler: "Of course, that's why we always complain how pointless the show is".

Both: "Dohohohohohohoho"
Anything's funnier than those Acts
You mean they were always better than the acts. 😂🤣
The sarcasm is real, I love these guys.

Not sarcasm
Statler and Waldorf - Trolling since 1950's
1975*

"What's wrong?"
"It's either this show or indigestion. I hope it's indigestion."
"Why?"
"Because if it's indigestion, it'll get better!"

That one killed me 🤣
Statler: "South Dakota!"
Waldorf: "That's got nothin' to do with this show!"
Statler: "That's what I want! Nothin' to do with this show!"
Both: "Haw-haw-haw-haw-haw-haw!"
"He's a credit to his race."
"What race is he?"
"The hundred yard dash"
*Ooooooooh nooooooooooooo*
Jim Henson was a GENIUS. How could this video have any real dislikes?
Morons
They were critics
Oh! Ho ho ho ho ho!!!!
Waldorf was one. Statler was the other 199!
@@kyleelbie221 ohhhhh ho ho ho ho!!!
Jim Henson gave U.S. the muppets and Sesame Street. I was raised on both.
Now THIS is real comedy. Thank you Statler and Waldorf and the rest of the Muppet cast!
"Hey, Alan! Here's one you missed!"
That killed me back in 1980 and still kills me now.

oh that a good one.

American Idol, might be worth watching if it had these two
Maybe if Simon had had a partner back in his day.
Your comments, might be a lot better if you didn’t word them like this

Brings back a lot of memories. I used to watch the Muppet Show right before bed. Jim Henson was a truly inspired artist. R.I.P., Jim.
As I get on in years...I'm getting closer and closer to these two...in more ways than my younger self could ever imagine...
"That joke was really something!"
"Yeah. Something terrible!"
"Hahahahahahahahaha!"
XD
I heard that in gravity falls
I didn't quite appreciate Statler & Waldorf jokes until I grew up. These guys are awesome.
Half the hilarity of the Muppet Show came from everybody's favorite hecklers in their box seats.
That explains why this show is only funny half the time. DOHOHOHOHO!
Now this is clean comedy that is appropriate for all ages, crosses cultural boundaries and takes a very long time to get old. It's a shame that comedy like this is no longer being produced on the main stream.
YES it is, pure genius
My late grandfather loved them. Seeing this makes me think of him and I am happy.
"Hey Waldorf, how's the popcorn?"
"Well it's just like the show. Too bland and overpriced."
"Hahahahaha."

3:49 the hearing aid joke cracks me up EVERY time, no matter how many times I hear it
"I got a new hearing aid ..
"Yeah ? What kind is it ?"
'A quarter past 4 .."
Can't get enough of their sarcasm 😂😂😂😝😝😝
Statler: This video has 200 dislikes! Are you one?
Waldorf: Yes, are you one?
Statler: One? I'm the other 199! DOHOHOHOHOHO
Haha! ! Thats awesome

That's not funny man, puppets have feelings too these days. A.I.
Ha that's great
Nah, I like these guys!
HEY I'm, 70 yrs old I still love these guys and the rest of the Muppets 😍😂😅😹😂😆😁
Waldorf: Y'know it's too bad gonzo's leaving this show.
Statler: Yeah? I can think of some other people I'd rather see leave the show.
Waldorf: Who?
Statler: Me!
Both: DOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!
"My favorite line"!
These two never get old...
Worse...they never die😱.
A medium sketch?
Well it's not rare, and it certainly wasn't well done.
Classic Statler and Waldorf
PreySaladz!
absolutely brilliant!
The laughs they do are the best. They’re just there
Wow that was Taylor swift?
What's so swift about her
Her music goes so fast it makes you forget dohohohoho!!!
Waldorf: You know, I think Nicki Minaj should change her name to Nicki Mirage.
Statler: Why's that?
Waldorf: Because then if we look at her, she'd disappear.
Both: DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!
Oh! The first good original one I've seen! I love it!
Wow that actually sounds like something they'd say! 👏 👍
Creative and funny
Epic!
Waldorf: What are Lady Gaga's parents' names?
Statler: Lady Ma ma & Lady Da da.
Waldorf: I didn't know Lady Gaga's Dad is a Lady.
Statler : her dad is a drag queen.

Ah, these guys never get old. XD
they always are old :D
Northern Light Dohohohoho!!!!
You mean more old than they already are?
Those two remind me of both my grandfathers whenever we'd all have Thanksgiving together...They laughed EXACTLY like these two...So funny!
Statler and Waldorf: true freakin legends of whatever you like!
Those two old men are always hilarious. Even though I am 42 now.
You are my sun-shine, my only sun-shine.
Why you ol' fool, I'm not your son and my name's not shine!
And he calls me an old fool.

Likewise. The show they did on ABC a while ago was pretty much a parody of the Muppet Show.
I love them too
3:48 is the best one. Lmfao! Loved these guys growin up 😂👍
Love these two guys. I like the way they mock the performances.
They look like muppetized caricatures of Wilford Brimley and Bea Arthur.
I loved watching them, though.
They were my dads favorite characters. Yes, he used to watch it with my brothers and sister. It was that good of a show.
these guys should have a rap battle against Siskel & Ebert
GET THAT ON ERB! :-) :-) :-)

I miss this show!! Twice as funny as an adult watching it.
These guys were the main reason I watched the Muppet Show when I was a kid. They were my dad's favorite too.
I would always look forward to seeing these two at the end of the show!
