Hey, was the choreographer pig Nathan Lane?
Voice you mean? No, it wasn’t – the only celebrity voice in the film was Mel Brooks as the snowman. The others were all Muppet performers. I believe – but am not sure – that the pig (whose name I think is Howard) is performed by Bill Barretta, the same performer who does Pepe.
A parody of Nathan Lane, that is… no, wait. I know where I’ve seen that face before. Blazing Saddles, the dance scene at the end!

Quite possibly one of the most disturbing things I’ve seen in my life.
Ack, hit submit too soon.
Needed to mention that I loved the movie, over all, and it had some great moments.
Carry on.
I’ve never read 1984, but they’re always making them do strange things on Fear Factor: sitting in a tub full of scorpions, eating buffalo testicles, etc. Eating Rizzo wouldn’t be out of place. (Having to face some of Rizzo’s non-civilized cousins would probably be more likely, however.)
I don’t think the coffee shrub was a Commander-in-Chief joke. It was just a joke regarding that God can do whatever He (or She) wants. He’s God, after all! Why not create a bush that dispenses coffee? It’s a lot easier. (Although that was somewhat weak, some of the other lines regarding God’s spare time were funny. “You’re just lucky SpongeBob isn’t on.” “I like SpongeBob.” “Who asked you?”)
My feelings on the show were mixed. It did have its moments. I especially liked Fozzie’s run to the bank, where he’s chased by the Crocodile Hunter (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) and confused for the Grinch (or a reasonable facsimile thereof).
