Statler and Waldorf

"If you remember The Muppet Show, you no doubt will recall Statler and Waldorf, the two grumpy, but funny, old men who sat in the balcony throughout every show offering their own commentary and kibitzing about the episodes' content and performances. Well, they're back with a vengeance in Statler and Waldorf-From the Balcony, where the jocular geezers will be offer their own brand of humorous criticism on upcoming film and DVD releases in online vignettes at Movies.com in a bi-weekly program (www.movies.com/balcony). Statler and Waldorf will present movie previews and a Snooze-O-Meter ranking, which rates a movie based on passing out during the opening title sequence vs. staying awake throughout the entire picture. Movies.com will offer new episodes of Statler and Waldorf - From the Balcony every two weeks, each featuring a different Muppet guest star such as Pepe the King Prawn, Rowlf the Dog, and more."
