The Jimmy Dean Show - Rowlf's Flu 

What I find the most interesting is that when Jimmy hits Rawlf with the tongue depressor, Jim was quick to respond as Rawlf by grabbing his eye. Puppets were so second nature to him even so early on in his career.

Jim Henson's first big break. Dean was always sincere and talked to Rowlf like he believed he was real - that's why it worked so well. Henson gratefully offered Jimmy Dean 1/2 share in the Muppets (worth 100s of millions later) but Jimmy turned it down thinking he didn't deserve it - and to his death swore he never regretted it.

After Rowlf’s line about the hole in Jimmy’s headlight......the way Jimmy was leaning over the fence and breaking himself laughing, I could only imagine him and Jim Henson exchanging looks and Jim H. giving Jimmy that “Yeah I got ya good that time!” type of look!! 😁👍

And now, the origins of the continuing stooooooooooooooory of a quack who's gone to the dogs.

Thank you Defunctland for showing me the way to this.

jimmy had the best laugh when rowlf got him cracking up..omg this was such a good show!!

"What the heck happened?!" "My belly button blew out." LOL, I love that!

Jimmy's laugh at 4:12 - he clearly wasn't expecting that comeback from Rowlf.

"Hey, what happened to the popsicle?" LOL!

_"Hey, what happened to the popcicle?"_ is still a favourite of mine whenever I have a trip to the doctors 😊

This sketch is now 55 years old!

I remember this from when I was little. So cute! So nice to see it again.

Thank you,i loved it a lot. It made me happy! I was a little girl back then in Manhattan.❤😊

Part of this was on The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years.

Rowlf is so cute and cuddly.

Was just randomly watching this on June 13th after rewatching the Defunctland special. Didn't realize today marks the 12th year anniversary of Jimmy's passing. Didn't know much about him but going off this alone, he must've been a real class act.

When I grow up, I want to be a country musician’s silly dog sidekick

He always had fun with Rowlf!!

I never thought I'd see this in its entirety, I've seen at least 3 different sections over the past 25 or more years

That's pretty awesome that he legit made jimmy laugh lol wish a show like this could still exist but peeps just couldn't handle it. Not "stimulating: enough I guess

Gah! I've been longing to see this one! :)

Jimmy was a lovely human!

The audience really loved this one.

Hey doc there’s a hole in your headlight 😂

Rowlf Is By Far The Second Oldest Muppet, The Oldest Is Kermit.

This came out 30 Years before I was born *(to the Day)* No wonder it's one of my favorites *:)*

"Maybe I got the virus". Oh dear.

Clips from this skit were used in "The World of Jim Henson."

I never knew a show like this existed! Hilarious🤣

I remember this as a child, Rowlf and Jimmy, not this episode. Loved Rowlf.

Thanx, a bagel, so so much for sharing this treasure! Haven't seen it in its entirety since first-run way back when. Rowlf forever!

1965: Rowlf has the flu 2020: Rowlf has the coronavirus

MY BELLY BUTTON BLEW UP!

This is so cute you can see the guy working with Ralph it’s just going along with it and laughing lol

4:34 LOL

Thank you so much for posting this. My does it make me really happy!!.💕

Timesless. Nearly 60 years old, still funny.

I love this old show wish they'd show it on pbs

Love that dog

"I'm having trouble breathing too" "And I've got a cough" *crono viris*

Rowlf: "MD=Miserable Doctor" LOL

Wait A Minute Wait A Minute WAIT A MINUTE!!! I Thought Kermit The Frog Was The First Muppet To Become A Star

4:00 hey doc, there's a hole in your headlight

Rowlf: My belly button blew out!

I Want to See the Episode When Rowlf the Dog Had a B-Day Cake That Looked Just Like Him and He Licked It and said "I Taste Good". LOL (smile)

Don’t cover your mouth with your paw, Rowlf!

Jimmy called him "Ralph", not "Rowlf". Oops.

Rowlf Plays The Piano On The Muppet Show

1:43 why is nobody mentioning this lmao. Standing room only for Rowlf.

7:08 Me When I Graduated

Rawlf a Legend

Imagine if Jimmy Dean took a 40 percent offer gift. Jimmy Dean might had been a billionaire when he died.

Heard of Jimmy Dean, muppets brought me here. Didn’t realize Jimmy was a pretty boy.

rowlf said hey what happen the popsical😂😂😂😂

The hunting friend was John Wayne

Poor Rowlf I feel bad for him even though he's a muppet dog. How can he get over this flu?

My favorite dog is sike

He calls him Ralph I always said it Rolf

So pretty much we've the voice of Rick Sanchez from "Rick, and Morty" as a dog puppet. Where's Muppet Morty when you need him!?!?...

I thought Jim Henson played rowlf! This is Frank Oz!

Can you make a clip of Rowlf’s toothache and the dentist from Episode 304?

Rowlf is OLD!

Thanks to kermitment i found this

2:54 *Does Rowlf have COVID?*
