Today was Today show anchor Meredith Vieira's last day on the program. It was a very solemn occasion where they took time to recall her important moments like dancing with the Rockettes, falling down while ice skating, being attacked by Robin Williams and Russell Brand, polishing Colin Firth's trophy, and interviewing world leaders like Barack Obama and Miss Piggy.

Adding fire to the drama surrounding Katy Perry's boobs being banned from Sesame Street, Jay Leno pointed out that Miss Piggy often dressed-to-kill on The Muppet Show. Watch the clip after the jump.

The Muppets have always been a beacon for clean, good humor. That's usually after they've had their morning coffee. Because they were certainly not for kids on The Today Show this morning.

While recapping last nights Dancing With the Stars finale, the sound abruptly cut out and cut to a shot of the back of Miss Piggy's lifeless head. A flustered Tom Bergeron cut to commercial. This clip has not been edited.
