    2010: The Muppets Return

    I think there are several signs pointing to the return. Check out this article from MSNBC. It points out things most of us have noticed, but it's nice to read them on a news site like that. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/34729660/ns/entertainment-arts_books_more/

    Will an Unedited MFC ever be commercially released on DVD?

    Well, I went ahead and converted my VHS copy of the 1987 special. It's on my computer and ready for a DVD. I've also got part of the 30th Anniversary Special, so I'm going to turn that around, too. The late eighties were a great time for Muppets.

    New Members: Please Post and Introduce Yourself

    Fan Vids - The YouTube Generation

    I had a little fun right before Christmas and came up with this Muppet rendition of "Baby, It's Cold Outside." I'm not saying the impersonations are spot on by any means, but it was a lot of fun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvbwUeFY8m8

    Will an Unedited MFC ever be commercially released on DVD?

    My family taped this special back in 1987. My sister owns the 2001 DVD. I watched both this Christmas and was surprised how much was cut. The song between Fozzie and the Snow Man was especially missed. The puppet Muppet babies sequence made a lot more sense seeing more of the footage. I'm...
