Муппет Шоудың "Электрлік Дүрмегі": Тарихы мен Эволюциясы

Fictional rock band from The Muppet Show
the television series
The group made their debut in 1975's The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence, the pilot for The Muppet Show. Dr. Teeth and Animal were designed by Henson, Zoot was designed by Bonnie Erickson, while the rest of the original band members were designed by Michael K. Frith. Animal, Floyd and Zoot also played in the Muppet Show pit band, performing the opening and closing themes and underscoring most of the Muppet Show performances. Lips and occasionally Janice appeared in the orchestra in later episodes. Lips joined the band as the sixth member in the fifth season of the series, and made some appearances with the group after The Muppet Show ended production; the group later reverted to its original five member line up, until Lips returned in 2011's The Muppets. The band's first film role was performing the song "Can You Picture That?" in The Muppet Movie. They also performed "Night Life" and participated in "The Happiness Hotel" in The Great Muppet Caper and performed "Jingle Bell Rock" in A Muppet Family Christmas. They appeared in The Muppets Take Manhattan (sans Lips) where Dr. Teeth sang "You Can't Take No For An Answer". Following the deaths of two of the group's puppeteers, Henson and Hunt, they were limited to brief instrumental background music throughout the 1990s. However, the Electric Mayhem backed Miss Piggy for a song in The Muppets' Wizard of Oz and performed alongside Miley Cyrus in the 2008 Studio DC: Almost Live television special. They have been a mainstay in the Muppets' viral video efforts of the 2010s and have a featured role in 2015's The Muppets as the house band on the show within a show Up Late with Miss Piggy. The same year, they released two music videos for "Jungle Boogie" (featuring Sam Eagle) and "Kodachrome". An Electric Mayhem "live" tour with audio animatronic versions of the puppets and rock band My Morning Jacket performing the characters was proposed by The Walt Disney Company but ultimately abandoned. The band performed a live five song set at the Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival on August 6, 2016. The Muppets Mayhem, a series about the Electric Mayhem recording their first eponymous studio album, premiered on Disney+ on May 10, 2023.

Despite featuring Dr. Teeth's name prominently in the band's name, the group officially has no frontman and instead has described itself as a "rocktocracy". The original pilot episode of The Muppet Show also featured Jim, a Muppet caricature of Henson on banjo.

Clifford, performed by Kevin Clash, was briefly made a member of the Electric Mayhem (as a percussionist) in 1990. His only appearances with the group were in the television special The Muppets at Walt Disney World and minor publicity material.

Jim was featured in the original pilot episode as a Muppet caricature of Jim Henson on banjo.

In Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars (2004), after a confrontation with some Muppet style aliens, Crichton makes a comment about "being shot at by the Electric Mayhem". In an episode of Adult Swim's Robot Chicken ("Plastic Buffet"), Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem were in a fake VH1 Behind the Music sketch detailing the band's activities after The Muppet Show. It shows Dr. Teeth earning a living as a piano teacher and claims that no one has seen Zoot since he was arrested in Japan for possessing a suitcase filled with thirty seven pounds of hash – which is a parody of the 1980 Paul McCartney marijuana bust. Also, in a fake episode of The Howard Stern Show, Janice reveals that Tommy Lee gave her Hepatitis C and that she only has 5 years to live (referencing similar claims made by actress Pamela Anderson); when Stern ignores her distress and asks if Janice will show him her breasts; she angrily refuses. Finally, a possible comeback for the Electric Mayhem—a performance on Star Search—ends in tragedy when Animal has to be put down for a vicious attack on host Ed McMahon. The sketch ends with Floyd sadly stating that a reunion of the Electric Mayhem is impossible without Animal and Zoot as Dr. Teeth plays a piano duet with Rowlf the Dog and a sickly Janice coughs in the background. The Family Guy episode "Herpe the Love Sore" begins with Peter and Lois watching an episode of Behind the Music about the Electric Mayhem.
