I'm guessing Muppets from Space is next? I think we learn more about Gonzo in that one.
Chris Crowther
And a useless pirate related fact for you: Robert Newton, who played Silver in the 1950s version, is credited with making the English West Country accent the default "pirate accent", as he was from Dorset.
Chris Crowther
I think some of the cameos you're probably not recognizing are people like Billy Connoly as Billy Bones and Jennifer Saunders as Mrs Bluberidge. They're British stand-up comedians and comic actors; Connoly has been in a few high profile movies though (he was in The Boondock Saints). The line "I coulda been a contender" is a reference to the film "On the Waterfront" with Marlon Brando; it's his most famous line from it (one of his most famous lines in general).

Doing Hannibal Lecter impressions.

I guess it is time for Ashleigh to watch Tom Hanks in Captain Phillips
Veronica Pearson
He does sing in Worst Witch. š Wednesday Hallobeans kinda movie IMO. š

It just so happens that today is International Talk Like A Pirate Day

As to what he is, Gonzo is a Weirdo. I don't think it is canon, but he is referred to as a Weirdo by Piggy in Muppet Babies pretty often.
Meredith Shivers
Muppets From Space is next!
Cass&Jason
He sings in Annie, too. It was post-RHPS, but still so early in his career that most forget he was in it.

Add Absolutely Fabulous to the tv list! Jennifer Saunders is a gem and too many people don't know how hilarious she and Joanna Lumley were as Patsy and Edina. ā¤ļø
Lynnetta
I need her to hear him sing Toxic Love from Ferngully.
TheSingulatarian
You never hear of Somali Pirates? Watch Captain Phillips with Tom Hanks.
TheSingulatarian
Those Muppet creators a more than a little freaky. Watch Farscape sometime created by them. Puppets in bondage gear.
Chris Crowther
ā¦again. In fairness I canāt keep track of what sheās seen either. (He sings in The Worst Witch too, iirc)
TheSingulatarian
Oh, Ashliegh?!?
TheSingulatarian
There is a a Treasure Island prequel TV series called Black Sails.
MechaGai
She's seen it. She just completely forgot.
Matthew Periolat
There are fun moments, but this one just doesnāt really do it for me. All power to you, those who enjoy, but this one? Probably last on my rankings. 1. Muppet Christmas Carol 2. The Muppet Movie 3. Muppets Take Manhattan 4. Great Muppet Caper 5. Muppet Treasure Island YMMV. Now put The Dark Crystal on a HalloBeans poll please!
TheSingulatarian
There is a version of Treasure Island with Charlton Heston and a very young Christian Bale as Jim.
Chris Crowther
āI donāt think Iāve ever heard Tim Curry sing.ā - well, someone needs to watch RHPSā¦

In terms of muppet movies after this the main ones are Muppets from Space (1999), The Muppets (2011), and Muppets Most Wanted (2014). Thatās the rest of the main Muppet movies and those films are all really entertaining.

Scribbles the Mouse
OMG yes! I know what I'm doing this morning. Full length watch along. I wonder if my pirate outfit will fit over my "human sized" Miss Piggy costume..
