    Are the Muppets as popular as they were 30 to 40 years ago?

    There was never an official announcement of which I am aware. The rumor stems from an article that said there will probably be a new Muppet series on the new service. As far as I know there is no actual news of a show being or ever being produced. Darth is probably right. The new Muppet...

    Where are all these classic Sesame Street episodes coming from?

    I didn't know there were so many old school episodes uploaded. It's really weird seeing season 1 Sesame Street. There are clips in these episodes that were in the series when I was a kid (about 20 years after the show started) that I had no idea were from the first season. Also it is weird...

    Sesame Street Introduces Homeless Muppet

    Is she not a regular cast member? I haven't seen the show in many years so I have no idea.

    Sesame Street Introduces Homeless Muppet

    I had someone that worked for me that lived in a shelter. Worked as a cashier. Decent worker, did what was asked of him, would help out and was willing to work extra hours. He never stole money as he never had shortages on his registers, but after I transferred to another store he was spotted...

    Sesame Street Introduces Homeless Muppet

    I'm surprised they haven't touched on this topic before now. Where I use to work we had a couple of people that had full time jobs yet were still homeless, living in shelters. It's one of my biggest fears.

    Are the Muppets as popular as they were 30 to 40 years ago?

    How much presence the Muppets have on Disney+ will pretty much show us how much Disney cares about the Muppets in general. So far we have no actual news of a new show. Nothing has been shown and no word about it going into production has been officially mentioned. The only productions we...

    Are the Muppets as popular as they were 30 to 40 years ago?

    The Muppets are icon popular, but not actually popular. It's like Mickey Mouse. Everyone claims to love Mickey mouse, but when was the last time any Mickey production was released that was popular with a non-preschool crowd? The Muppets are no longer popular for their humor. They are popular...

    My New Project - Mini Santa Chef Figure/Ornament

    So after completing my mini Fozzie I was trying to think of a new project. At first I was considering a Sheesh Kermit for whom I have a completed head sculpt, but since Fozzie was in a distraught positions I thought another "unhappy" figure seemed too... unhappy. Soo... I switched gears and...

    Little things we've noticed

    Plus you need something to clean up all that hot mustard that Floyd wanted tonuse to eat through the bars and wipe you hands after eating the popcorn Scooter was selling. Speaking of which, ever notice that Scooter has a scene/line/joke where he is specifically dealing with popcorn in the first...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Its so weird that we went from free love and fighting against censorship in the 70s to a song being "problematic". Its like... innocent normal interactions between men and women is bad, but crazy outlandish overtly sexual behavior is ok. Its so weird.

    Interviews with Vulgar Words and Phrases

    Considering the words was in the song Happiness Hotel in Great Muppet Caper which is rated G, it really isnt a big deal.

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    It should be considered a rape song to begin with. Its a song about a woman who wants to spend the night with a man she likes but since they are not marries she is afraid of what it will do to her reputation so the man is giving her an excuse she can use when telling her family why she spent...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    Yeah, the appeal of the line for me is the multi character packs. The only solo figure we got that i tjought was ok to be solo was Animal for the drum set. They should have put more into the singing food variety instead of spoons and stuff. I like as many Muppet faces in a display as i can...

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    Someone posted a review of the new Chef figure. Shows some detailed shots. It looks ok, but recently i broke out my Santa Chef figure and this pales in comparison to the detail of the old Palisades one. I know its not totally fair to compare the two lines, and DST has some figures I like...

    Rumor: The Muppet Movie will be remade in animation

    Honestly... I don't know if I would rather no Muppets or animated Muppets. The new Muppet Babies style is mostly really well done and matches the Muppet look.

    How to restore the Muppets to their former glory...

    As time goes by there are fewer and fewer people that understand what the chara ters are. Steve claimed to, but even he had this weird morally perfect vision of Kermit that was not true to his Jim Henson self.

    How to restore the Muppets to their former glory...

    Steve seems like a nice enough guy, but i dont want to see him back as Kermit. I like Matt's take on the character. I wouldnt mind seeing him back in general playing Rizzo and background characters. I dont know what "adult" projects the Muppets have done. The 2015 show really wasnt all that...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    I don't understand how being inclusive means excluding Christmas. It's basically a secular holiday now. Wouldn't a better answer to this issue be to include all winter holidays instead?

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    I've ordered from them a lot and then tend to be a little slow, but they also have their Chef figure priced less than any other place I've seen. I am hoping he comes soon though. I've started sculpting some smaller singing food to be in scale with the DST Chef. Already finished a tiny cabbage...

    TV Alert: Kermit on The Late Late Show with James Corden Thursday November 29, 2018

    Yes, this is why I like Matt as Kermit. His Kermit is more like the lovable prankster of TMS that only got frazzled when things really went wrong. He use to be able to hold his own against Piggy in an argument and had no problem telling other characters when he thought their acts were bad. In...
