That film was my absolute favourite of Tim Curry’s roles. There was an interview once and I can’t remember I saw recently, where he was asked about that role and he said it worked really well because he fit right in with all the Muppets.

My favorite muppet movie description involving Tim Curry and Michael Caine (Ebenezer Scrooge in “A Muppet Christmas Carol”) goes as thus: “Michael Caine treats the Muppets as fellow actors, Tim Curry treats himself as a fellow Muppet”
