Well, it makes more sense than selecting Yessir Immafatt and Jimmuh Carter for the Nobel Peace Prize.

The one reason I liked "Muppets from Space" was due to their having Beaker and Bunsen in the film...

Not a lot of screen time, but they gave Bunsen some good lines!

Did the professor of Gilligan's Island even get a vote?

Nah, forget it. He could make a battery out of coconut shells, but he couldnt even fix a hole in the boat.
