More nods to the film come in the pilot when Angela’s neighbour Brian Krakow wears a George Bailey-style number 3 American football jersey, and Angela changes clothes in a bush, à la Donna Reed after the high school dance, cementing My So-Called Life‘s makers’ love of It’s A Wonderful Life.

What’s its purpose? Thematically, it has parent/child parallels with the scene of Claire Danes’ Angela making up with her mother after a fight in the My So-Called Life pilot, but this one’s really here because the show’s creators loved Capra’s movie to the extent that their production company was called Bedford Fall Productions, its logo was the Bailey house, and its theme music was a line taken from “Buffalo Gals Won’t You Come Out Tonight.”įurther reading: The Best Santa Slasher Movies Which clip is it? A volume-muted clip of George pretending to paste back the petals that have dropped off his daughter Zuzu’s prize flower. Miss Piggy is seen interacting with a heap of famous Hollywood faces in the segment, Jimmy Stewart being just one of them.

The clip is one of many featured old film and TV segments featured in the episode’s Miss Piggy-hosted ‘Celebrity Circles’ gameshow. The official word from the Jim Henson Company is that the names are merely a coincidence, but one that’s referenced in this scene when puppet Bert and Ernie walk past a skip in which a TV is playing the above scene from It’s A Wonderful Life and do a double take.įurther reading: Putting the Christmas Back in The Nightmare Before Christmas

A long-standing rumour exists that Sesame Street’s Bert and Ernie were named for the bickering policeman and taxi driver in It’s A Wonderful Life, who serenaded George and Mary on their “honeymoon” at the old Granville place, later the Bailey house. Which clip is it? There are a few in this one, including Zuzu’s bell/wings line, but the best is the scene of a life-erased George telling Bedford Fall’s cop and cab driver Bert and Ernie “Bert! Ernie! What’s the matter with you two guys? You were here on my wedding night.”įurther reading: The Strange History of the Die Hard Movies Unless it’s foreshadowing Scrooge McDuck’s trip to jail in the next episode (unlikely), we can only think it was put there on a whim.
