Wocka Wocka Wocka Wocka is Fozzie Bear ' s catchphrase , usually used as a form of laughter to punctuate a joke . Although the phrase is now closely identified with the character , Fozzie first said it in " The Muppet Movie " , and only once on " The Muppet Show " , in ( along with variations on the expression , such as " Hiya hiya " in ) . In a January 2018 Reddit AMA , Frank Oz recalled the origin of the phrase in " The Muppet Movie " : Fozzie has his own origin for the phrase , as told to " Maxim " magazine in March 2014 : The phrase has gone on to identify not only " The Muppet Show " ’ s resident comedian , but as a whole . At MuppetFest in 2001 , Kirk Thatcher instructed the audience to raise their hands to help establish a greeting amongst fans akin to that used by Trekkies . Mimicking a puppeteer with one ' s raised hand , you say , Kermit the Frog ' s catchphrase , " Hi - ho ! " Then , if you ' re greeted by a female fan , her response is : " Kissy kissy ! " If you ' re greeted by a male Muppet fan , his response is : " Wocka wocka ! " This page is an attempt to chronicle the popularization of " Wocka Wocka " throughout Fozzie ' s appearances following " The Muppet Show " . Verbal uses . In addition to its roots in " The Muppet Movie " and " The Muppet Show " , Fozzie has gone on to use the phrase in several Muppet productions . Other examples can be found in Disney Channel Bumpers , " Studio DC Hosted by Selena Gomez " , the Disney Xtreme Digital short " Four For Friday " , the opening title screen for the " Jim Henson ' s Muppets " GameBoy Color game , and Jokes ! with Fozzie . Written uses . Despite its uses in popular culture , official sources establish " wocka " as the proper spelling : a digital style guide distributed to licensors includes a txt file using the " wocka " spelling as a phrase that may be used when marketing the Muppets ; The Muppets ' official bios on ABC . com confirmed the spelling ; and character originator Frank Oz tweeted the correct spelling after misspelling it in a Reddit AMA . One potential source for misspellings of the term as used by the general populace may be subtitles on some versions of the home video releases for " The Muppet Movie " . The closed - captioning and subtitle text tracks embedded within films released for a consumer market are often farmed out to third - party vendors rather than provided by the studio and creatives responsible for making the movie ( the companies are often credited at the end of the movie within the subtitle track itself ) . Without access to script materials ( or in the case of on - set improvising ) , indiscernible dialogue is often left to the interpretation of the transcriber and any range of mistakes can find their way into the final product . The 2001 DVD release of " The Muppet Movie " avoided the issue of assigning a spelling to Fozzie ' s phrase by failing to transcribe the dialogue when it ' s spoken during the scene . The following DVD release in 2005 spelled the term incorrectly , as " wakka " , and each subsequent home video release ( including Blu - ray and digital download / streaming ) have carried over the error .

The movie offered Mann and Weil the opportunity to write theatrical music . Weil said , " We went for a Broadway thing here . When we began working with Brian Henson , we wrote the first song like a kid ' s song . " That song was dropped : " We looked at the rest of the Muppet movies and saw how hip the music was . It was a challenge to write the songs from a theatrical standpoint instead . " The film ends with a reggae number performed by Ziggy Marley , " Love Power " . The song was released as a single , and promoted with a music video featuring Marley and some dreadlocked Muppets .
