What if Battlestar Galactica was remade with a cast of Jim Henson’s The Muppets? It might look something like this.  [via /Film]

This happened on Friday, I believe, but I took the weekend off and completely unplugged myself from the machine for the first time in god knows how long. Friends were in town visiting.  Two days away from the internet is like a lifetime of regret (wow, so deep, let’s get that on a bumper sticker or post card or Hallmark card).

Anyway, Fallon has certainly been off to good start as the new host of Late Night. He’s doing a lot of things differently and has a nice touch.  It helps that you can watch just the good parts and on demand, rather than staying up that late.  Segel, you may remember is writing the new Muppets movies.

Really, this needs no introduction at all. Sam the Eagle introduces the song, performed by Beaker, Animal, the Chef, et al.

A Capella never sounded so patriotic.

Alternately hilarious with Beaker on the high notes, Animal growling and the Swedish Chef just mumbling. And yet, you can tell this is a song that makes grown men cry. For my Dad who loves The Muppet Show. Once more, Happy St. Paddy’s Day.

Hopefully, Jason Segel and Nick Stoller do Kermit and the gang justice.
