    I think they keep going to the Muppet Show, despite their unflattering commentary and all their heckling, because it's honestly better than sitting around waiting for the grim reaper

      Yeah, I think it's a combination of that, and the fact that they simply find heckling things to be fun (Because it IS)!

      "No, he already came!"
      "What you saw there was our last moments."
      "Then some guy with a suit and horns took us to a big fancy stage, shackled us to two chairs, and said *'Welcome to your hell!'"*
      "BHO-HO-HO-HO-HO!"

    I know they're not exactly fans of the show, but honestly, it seems like it's been good for their health. In later episodes they're shown to be full of energy and their wits are sharper than a razor!

    The very first time that I saw Statler and Waldorf on The Muppet Show, after the opening act ended and that they took us to S&W, I didn't know that they were sitting in Theater Box. As a kid, I thought that they were sitting outside on the porch in their own home talking about The Muppet Show.
    Then much later on, the porch was facing the stage that I thought does their porch gives them free entertainment right by their own home? To make it even more crazy, I also thought that Statler was The Dad and that Waldorf was his son. I sure had some vivid imagination when I was young.
    Get this. For a Male Muppet, I also thought that Zoot was Statler's wife and was Walter's Mom. During The Season One Closing Credits, when they showed Zoot playing the bridge of The Muppet Show Closing Theme, I thought Zoot was playing the saxophone inside Statler and Waldorf's home not too far from the porch. I also thought that The Muppet Stage Pit had furniture, a small picture, a lamp and a fireplace all around Zoot.
    Much later on when I finally got to see The Muppet Show Sex and Violence on DVD, I finally got to see The Insides of Statler and Waldorf's Home. Very nice place. I was like is their home sharing the same building with The Muppet Theater? I was like "Man. Statler and Waldorf without a doubt get plenty of Free Live Entertainment in their own home.
    I knew eventually later on in life that their porch is a Theater Box, they're two old geezers and not Father & Son, Zoot is not the wife, mother nor even a woman, he's part of The Electric Mayhem Band. I knew that I would gain more knowledge about The Muppet Show eventually, but thinking about what I originally thought The Muppet Show was back then when I was a child certainly brings back great memories.
