Man, Im so sorry. That's horrible of Disney to be so ethno/geocentric and lock out non Americans. Thats almost like China's censoring of the web.

But...I hate to say this...but Muppets.com has horrible navigation, and acts so buggy sometimes. It's almost impossible to know when there's new videos, or even where to find them. You think it wouldn't be too impossible to make it so one can easily see in descending order when new videos are posted and easily access them. They dont even have a pause button.
They do have a pause button, it's on the slider.

Beauregard lifts Bobo a few times, and he's even seen without his hat (was the puppet ever shown hatless? The figure had a removable hat).
Sure, I've seen Beauregard take his hat off at least twice on the Muppet Show. Once was when he shyly asked Crystal Gayle if he could have her autograph.

Crystal Gayle: You sure can. [Takes the paper he's holding and signs it.] There you go.

[Beauregard puts his hat on and takes the paper back.]

Beauregard: Okay, thank...Hey, wait, this is no good! It's upside-down.

Crystal Gayle [turning it right-side-up]: How's that?

[Beauregard stares at the paper in amazement.]

Beauregard: How did you do that?

Here's a clip with that exchange, as well as some other moments from the Crystal Gayle episode.

I went to Muppets.com, but I got a message saying, "This content requires Adobe Flash Player 10. Do you want to install it now?" and I didn't.

Most of the web requires Flash for video. This was only an update so you can watch the clip.

Thanks, jamie. I can see the Muppets.com site now, and I saw the clip with Bobo and Beauregard. Odd, but when I saw Beau from the side, it looked like he had grown ears shaped like Bobo's!

Glad you could see this new gem. Beau's ears are kind of weird. Maybe he's getting older. I wonder if that's a refurbished puppet or a complete rehaul?

Yeah, I don't remember Beauregard having any visible ears on the Muppet Show. I liked the Muppet Show's version of him better anyway. He looked more open and sweet, more wide-eyed and naive.

I remember Beauregard having ears for some reason, just that he always wore a hat/ had hair covering them...
