I do remember watching it in one hour blocks and for one season a ninety minute block. Although I also must of started watching the season after the short lived Little Muppet Monsters because I remember Pee Wee's Playhouse was part of the lineup.
As I recall they would usually have a...
It's amazing I now!:drool: I've been meaning to post a list of my favorite episodes on this site for a long time...but I've also had an outline for an essay in my head summarizing the layers of intrigue I get from my number one pick. Problem is I'm not sure where to post once I've finished since...
There were a few songs with fleeting references to Santa Claus. Two that come to mind are the Merry Go Round song from "Fun Park Fantasies" and Good Things Happen in the Dark from "Who's Afraid of the Big, Bad Dark?". The later episode and "Is there a Muppet in the House" have fear and haunting...
Since 1971 Toei Company had pioneered a new kind of Tokusatsu (or Japanese special effects) with Kamen Raider, the first of many super-hero action shows to specialize in "Transforming" or (Henshin) super heroes who change there appearance while forming a martial arts pose and due battle with a...
In 1978 Marvel Comics was only beginning a long and tangled history of licensing. They were expanding there interests not just in terms of adapting hit material from other mediums in comic books (like Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica and the first Star Trek movie), but licensing there own...
YES! In fact I can provide the source of that quote. I've been leading up to creating a separate forum heading to explain why Power Ranger almost owes it's very existence to Muppet Babies, but now I wonder if maybe I should just save it for here.
I see what you mean. Like a lot of the movies featured on MST3K, it could be hard to sit through without some mocking commentary. There is youtube channel BTW which features riffing on some old cartoons including Tomb of Dracula. My favorite part is when the make it seem like Dracula can't stand...
It seems like Marvel Productions was using Toei for there animation outsourcing from the beginning of the company's renaming from DePatie-Freleng. DePatie had previously produced animated series Fantastic Four and Spider-Women before Fritz Freleng went back to work for Warner Bros. Aside from...
There was a follow up anime with Marvel's version of Frankenstein's Monster though I haven't seen it. The Tomb of Dracula anime I have seen and...yeah it's awful...but I'd count it as one things that's so bad it hilarious. The animations pretty decent and from what I can they seemed to follow...
Well, when I said Muppet Studios I was actually thinking of The Muppet Workshop in New York, but I couldn't remember the exact name. :o
You're probably right about the west coast factor though. Since they company was really expanding at that time and performers were working in several...
As someone who grow up with Muppet Babies as my first introducing to anything Muppet related (not to mention many of the movies that clips featured on the show), I can answer a few of these questions.
First of all, the series was did not start with CBS. They had to be sold on the idea by Jim...
I was suprised to find no mention of this online video in the minor series by Oancitizen so I though I'd post a link. It briefly delves into what the author thinks is a hidden influence on The Muppets. I try to explain further, but this video kinds of speaks for itself. It doesn't take to long...
True that. Although I'm sure who would've likely been behind this reference. Margaret Loesch (the women behind The Hub) was an executive producer for both shows, but the only major connection was the score composer Robert J. Walsh. Of course both series were also produced (in part) by the know...
