The Muppet Show (1976)

S1E5 Ruth Buzzi

Scooter receives a quirky gift from his uncle—a wind-up television host that looks just like Kermit. This mechanical doppelgänger quickly becomes a nuisance, pestering Kermit and trying to charm Miss Piggy with its flashy antics. The chaos that ensues leads to a comedic showdown between the original and the imitation, as the gang rallies to support Kermit against this unexpected rival for Miss Piggy's affection.
