Muppet Robin Hood

  • The Sheriff of Nottingham (Sam the Eagle) describes breaking the law as being "un-American". Sir Guy of Gisbourne (Gonzo) whispers to him, causing him to correct himself by saying that breaking the law is "un-British". A nice nod to the "It is the American/British way" gag from The Muppet Christmas Carol.
  • Maid Marian (Miss Piggy) complaining that the dress Hilda made for her is wide enough to use as a pirate ship flag.
  • Robin Hood (Kermit) at one point denies being in love with Maid Marian, only to make a remark that results in him getting kicked away.
    Robin Hood: Maid Marian, I only kissed you because I knew it would tick off the prince! Like I'd fall for a know-it-all pig with an ego bigger than her—
    Maid Marian: DON'T EVEN SAY IT!!
  • When Squirt (Kermit's nephew Robin) growls while Little John (Sweetums) is teaching Robin Hood and his band of merry men how to act like monsters, Arthur a Bland (Rizzo) quips that the growl was loud enough to be heard in Langridge's book.
  • When Robin Hood and Squirt learn that Maid Marian is Prince John's (Johnny Fiama's) niece, they quip that Prince John being part-pig explains a lot and that his pig ancestry is actually the better part of his family.
  • Robin Hood refuses to accept the invitation to the archery contest, certain that it's a trap orchestrated by Prince John. He changes his mind immediately when informed that grand prize is a kiss from Maid Marian.

Muppet Peter Pan

  • Sam the Eagle taking over as the narrator, changing the story so that it takes place in Boston and revealing himself to be the Darling children's father.
  • Sam the Eagle's shocked reaction when he and the other narrator have a turkey dinner and it is pointed out to him that a turkey is a bird like he is.

Muppet King Arthur

  • Morgana Le Fey (Miss Piggy) prepares a lunch of alphabet soup, which has letters spelling out "U R fairest. LOL NOT."

Muppet Snow White

  • The second issue ends with Sam the Eagle ruining the suspense by spoiling that the poisoned apple won't kill Snow White (Spamela Hamderson) after all.
  • The third issue begins with the Brothers Grimm (Gonzo and Rizzo) being unable to enter a club because Polly and Clueless do not see their names on the list. Turns out, however, that the reader of the comic is on the list.
