April 6, 2005: ABC aired two Muppets' Wizard of Oz teaser ads during its primetime Wednesday lineup, linking the Muppets with two of its most popular shows.
The first ad aired during Lost...

(With a flash and a whisper, the fog parts -- and we see Gonzo, Fozzie and Kermit on an island.)

|
|
(Piggy rears back for a karate chop.)
|

(In quick cuts, we see Piggy executing karate chops and kicks.)
|
|
Piggy |
HA! HO! HA! HIIIII-YAAA!
|
|
(Another flash -- and Piggy kicks again.)
|
|
Piggy |
I'm Miss Piggy! I don't need an Alias!
|
