The Muppet Show is now available to watch on Disney+ and there are many iconic episodes of the beloved series. One of the most famous episodes aired in 1980 and featured Mark Hamill as the host, which means there was a whole of fun Star Wars content in the episode. Recently, the fan-favorite Twitter account, @HistoryMuppet, shared some fun facts about Hamill’s episode. “When the Star Wars episode of The Muppet Show first aired, The Empire Strikes Back hadn’t been released. This made The Muppet Show the FIRST appearance of Luke Skywalker’s Bespin uniform, which is why throughout the episode Luke is asked one question,” they wrote. The tweet includes a clip that features Hamill being asked, “Who’s your tailor? I love that outfit.” Hamill saw the tweet and had the best response!
