    April Fools: Muppets Mayhem Season 2 premiering this fall

    I guess also, since I saw this a few days late (but depending on if I paid attention to when it was posted), I would have been suspicious that I hadn't seen posts about it on Toughpigs and social media and such already.

    April Fools: Muppets Mayhem Season 2 premiering this fall

    Well, I didn't see it until after April 1, but I think I saw you hint at it in another thread (which I didn't know what to make of at first), but normally on April 1 I do think about whether things are a prank (it would be really something if somebody could legitimately fool me on April 1).

    Sesame Street 55th Anniversary Happenings

    My idea for a DVD like the one described in this April Fools post: Disc 1: Moments The Muppets Sing: Rubber Duckie (season 1... though my report did refer to the song as an "often-released segment" which would imply the second season version) Elmo's Ducks Cookie Wonderful Me Alone in the...

    Old Nickelodeon

    I've been watching some Welcome Freshmen episodes recently (it looks like every episode is on DailyMotion), and I've noticed in some of the "sitcom format" episodes, it looks like things are set up to go one way but end up not happening. Not sure if it's just me or if any of that is intentional...

    Sesame Street 55th Anniversary Happenings

    My wishlist for a potential multi-disc "Sesame Street 101", with 101 songs from the show. Disc 1: The Songs We've All Heard Many Times (maybe more times than The Count likes to count) Though it might not be all the same versions that have been released on albums. 1. Sesame Street Theme (the...

    Funny Boy: The Richard Hunt Biography

    I kept holding off on posting this then decided I might as well on the day before April Fools Day (I was trying to start a few new threads in the weeks before April Fools Day).

    Funny Boy: The Richard Hunt Biography

    One thing that shocked me was the characters who Richard Hunt either did not like or did not connect with, especially since many of them did last a long time before his death (well, I already knew he didn't like Forgetful Jones until 1988). I'm surprised the book doesn't talk about his...

    Muppets on Television book coming soon

    Yeah, I would hope Disney and the book publisher would be okay with clearing images from Sam and Friends and Sesame Street (and the various variety show appearances not owned by Disney). I know nobody pointed this out, but I intentionally left out mentioning Muppets TV. I think such a book...

    Sesame Street 55th Anniversary Happenings

    I'd been wondering if Sesame Street's 55th anniversary will get celebrated this year, and Sesame Workshop just confirmed on social media that the anniversary will indeed be celebrated. And revealed some of what to expect: A line of Sesame Street "classic beanbag toys", which will include Ernie...

    Muppets on Television book coming soon

    It's been announced that Disney and DK Publishing will be collaborating on a new Muppet book called "Muppets on Television", to be written by Henson Company archivist Karent Falk. The book will focus on the various Muppet television series - The Muppet Show, Muppet Babies (1984), Little...

    Funny Boy: The Richard Hunt Biography

    The book has been out for a few weeks, and I am surprised there isn't a thread on the book here yet (was there one when it was announced?), so I am unsure if this should go under Henson People or Muppet Merchandise. But yeah, a few weeks ago came the release of Funny Boy: The Richard Hunt...

    One Way vs. Don't Walk

    So which song do you prefer - One Way or Don't Walk? Both songs are sung by a one-time Anything Muppet voiced by Christopher Cerf, and both involve a sight word on a sign that restricts the singer from doing something. Both tunes also keep the singer apart from his girlfriend. However, in One...

    Removeable Facial parts

    Not sure if you still hang around here or not, but do you remember where you heard that the book was started before Jim Henson died? I put that on the wiki page for the book in the early days, when they weren't so strict about citing sources (and I don't think they were saying that forum posts...

    Disco D vs. D Duah Dua

    The voice must have been rough. I wonder if Brian Meehl was relieved to learn he would not make further appearances.

    Disco D vs. D Duah Dua

    Been quite a while since I last started any "versus" threads for similar segments. But which D song do you like better - Disco D or D Duah Duah (aka Be MY D)? They are both disco sounding songs about the letter D that came out within a few years of each other, where the vocalists are clearly...

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    I feel like very few Muppets Tonight promos that aired on ABC (whether with or without exclusive footage) is online. I had created a page for Muppets Tonight promos with info on that and another one with the same set (featuring an Elvis Muppet), as well as one with Bob Saget and Fozzie Bear...

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    I recall a handful of Muppets Tonight ads with original content. Muppet Wiki used to have information on these (based on my own longtime memory), but previously images and video were unavailable. But just yesterday I found a video of commercial breaks on ABC and one such Muppets Tonight ad...
