Thanks. I got my copy of the Omnibus in the mail today, and noticed something that I'm sure others have spotted, but which doesn't seem to have been specifically mentioned in reviews. Namely, the original "Meet the Muppets" trade paperback included thirteen pages of Langridge's Disney...

Does the omnibus include the Muppet strips that Langridge produced for Disney Adventures, which were published as bonus material in the "Meet the Muppets" tpb of the first mini-series?

I went looking for what novelty voices might be available for my new Garmin GPS, and what should I find? Garmin: Sesame Street Voices Bert & Ernie are currently available, and there are audio clips and a video demonstration to preview. Cookie Monster and Oscar are coming soon, but no dates...

Seth Rogen hosted Saturday Night Live this past week, which meant the return of not only Rowlf, but a whole busload of Muppets: http://www.hulu.com/watch/66320/saturday-night-live-muppet-bus#s-p1-st-i0

I caught a sneak preview of this film last night, and I thought I'd pass along that there's a Muppet cameo in the movie. And if you want spoilers: In the opening montage of people shopping at the Emporium, one of the shoppers is Kermit. Some kids react to his presence, and he has a couple...

A friend of mine recently told me that when she was growing up in New York, she appeared in a Sesame Street sketch. She didn't remember everything about her bit, but I told her I'd do my best to try to track it down. Her name's Tiffany, and the sketch would've been sometime around 1982-1984...

Don't worry, I wasn't trying to insinuate anything at all. (See for yourself.) I'm tired of hearing the claim myself, and was trying to dispute it. Aside from their age, it seems pretty clear to me that the two were intended as a riff on the Odd Couple. But some people see two characters...

On another message board I frequent, the subject of Bert and Ernie came up, and one guy claims he's 99% certain that the two of them took baths together. I'm about that certain that they never did. The closest thing to a shared bath I can recall was in the "Do da Rubber Duck" sketch. But I...

I was in Sam Goody today, and although there were no signs or stickers to indicate it, the Muppet figures I bought rang up at a steep discount. Series 8 figures rang up at $5.61. Series 7 figures rang up at a measly $1.86 apiece. I ended up buying all 4 figures in the series at that...
