    I just finished reading Gene Kelly: A Life of Dance and Dreams by Alvin Yudkoff (1999, Backstage Books). Always on the look out for any mention of the Muppet in any of the former guest stars life (new anecdotes, jokes, or insights on the Muppeteers from an outside perspective) and Yudkoff had...

    I know that in Muppet Babies during the Greek Mythology episode, they talked about Theseus and the Minotaur in the Labyrinth, then they showed a picture of the Labyrinth. But the person here says: Actually, it is a Labyrinth reference, but the reference footage is cut! The actual episode had...

    Fraggle and Kermit, similiar construction?

    I was looking at the new Sababa Fraggle plushies and I got a view of Boober from a side angle and thought without a hat he looks kind of like Kermit with fur. Does anyone know if the Fraggles were made with a similar design in mind to Kermit?
