People can disagree with me all they want, I loved the musical episode! I speculated that the original concept for this episode could have originally been a flashback episode about Knuckles time journeying, but that would have required complete CGI environments which would have been out of the budget.
The musical episode is potentially a clever way of getting around that problem, having it with practical effects and costumes. Also it’s just objectively funny, like, an echidna ghost is like “let me tell you the story of the last of our tribe entirely through interpretive dance and rock opera” is hilarious
Even though I would have loved a flash back episode (which would have given Knuckles more screen time, making it feel much more like HIS show) this was still a fun compromise with a lot of inspiration from the games. It also looked like everyone had an absolute BLAST filming it!
🎶 I WILL GO FIGHT THE FLAMES OF DIIIISSSSSAAAAASSSTTTEEEEERRRRRRRR🎶
Okay, yeah, I liked the musical😂❤️

Sam & Castiel // Like a Virgin (6x12)
image description: scene comparisons from “Swan Song,” “The Third Man,” “Family Matters,” “Caged Heat,” “Like a Virgin,” and “The Man Who Would Be King”
5x22: Sam approaches Castiel in an alley, attempting to shake his hand before he and Dean go to Lucifer. He says, “Take care of these guys, okay?” Castiel tilts his head and tells him apologetically, “That's not possible.” Sam closes his eyes and lets his hand fall away, laughing a little.
6x12: (1) Sam steps away from hugging Bobby, confused, saying, “Wait, I saw you– I felt Lucifer snap your neck.” Bobby starts to respond, “Well, Cas kind of–” but Sam cuts him off asking, “Cas is alive?” Dean tells him, “Yeah, Cas– Cas is fine, Sam, are you okay?” Sam whips his head around to look at him, grinning in relief.
6x12: (2) Sam and Dean sit at Bobby's kitchen table with beers and a sandwich for Sam, Bobby stands at the counter, arms folded. Sam looks down saying, “What? I was downstairs for– I don't remember anything.” Dean processes this, then Sam asks, “So how'd I get back? Was it Cas?” he looks from Dean to Bobby. Dean looks away, scoffing a little, responding, “Not exactly.”
6x12: (3) Still in the kitchen, Sam looks up at Bobby confused, as he and Dean stare each other down, both looking harsh. Sam quietly, “Is there anything else I should know?” Dean pauses a bit, then he shakes his head and says, No.” grabbing his beer.
6x12: (4) Sam sits at a small table in a motel room, he prays hesitantly, “Castiel, um. I'm back. So, if you got a minute...” He looks around, not optimistic. He quickly sits up straighter as he sees Castiel has appeared in front of him. Sam slowly stands up, rapt, as Castiel says, “Sam. It's so good to see you alive.”
6x20: Soulless Sam turns away from watching Dean at Lisa's house, he walks right past Castiel who watches him, unseen. Castiel turns his head to watch him leave, brow furrowed and looking confused. Castiel's retrospective voice-over says, “Sometimes we're lucky enough to be given a warning. This should've been mine.”
6x03: Soulless Sam is seated, turned toward Castiel who has appeared in their hotel room. He says, “‘Hello’?” in an exasperated tone. Castiel tilts his head slightly and hesitates before nodding and saying, “Yes.” Sam turns to Dean, sitting father away on his bed, shocked. Dean shrugs a little, and Sam mimics Castiel's voice saying, “‘Hello.’” and turns back to Castiel again, indignantly repeating, “Hello?!”
6x07: Dean speaks to Castiel across the room from Sam, who watches them. His face is bloody and Dean has him tied to a chair. Dean asks Castiel, “So, is he even still Sam?” Sam watches quietly, and Castiel turns back to look at him thoughtfully, saying, “Well, you pose an interesting philosophical question.” Sam tilts his head up a bit, blinking.
6x10: Sam and Castiel stand outside on the road at night. Castiel looks up at him shaking his head slightly. He dismissively says, “You need help, Sam.” Sam counters, “I need your help.” Castiel tilts his head and squints a little.
6x12: (5) (continuation of the scene in the motel room) Sam gives Castiel a small smile, nodding, and responds saying, “Yeah. You too.” Castiel slowly approaches to hug him, but as he comes close Sam quickly sits down to avoid him, looking away. Castiel freezes a little with his arms still slightly raised, faltering. Sam doesn't look up at him, but says, “Look, I– I would hug you, but–” Castiel interrupts him by finishing, “That would be awkward.” Sam shifts uncomfortably, and Castiel turns away, embarrassed.

one of the funniest parts of the Muppets Mayhem show is how they handled Dr. Teeth
his name is a combo of the IRL musician Dr. John and the fact that he was the first Muppet to have been designed with teeth. at one point in the original Muppet Show he loosely implies that "teeth" is slang for money. the gold tooth also fits into that idea, with him claiming during some talk shows that it was melted down from his own gold records
but the Muppets Mayhem look one look at him and was like. "hmm. his full name is Gerald Teeth, Jr, D.D.S and he's a Former Dentist and the gold tooth is made from a gold floss case" which is the funniest possible answer they could've come up with I think
