    Something that's really kinda bugged me about the Muppet/Fraggle comics

    Well well well - you DID remember something i had totally forgotten about but not completely. It wasn't something i drew but rather a friend drew a picture of Robert Smith that looked like RS as a Muppet. As per the webtv, it isn't a conscious choice to remain old school - just an extreme...

    Something that's really kinda bugged me about the Muppet/Fraggle comics

    This generally applies more to the Fraggle comics though there's also been some of this with the Muppet Classics comics too, so since it's both Fraggles and Muppets - i'm posting this in "Muppet Merchandise" as opposed to the Fraggle folder... This has kind of been a mild irritation for...

    The JHLC

    Yeah, i think since in many ways, "Muppet" and "Jim Henson" are so synonymous, it's hard to really seperate the two in discussions since every other thread indirectly pays homage and appreciation to Jim and also his influence spread itself to everyone else he worked with so it gets hard to...

    Muppy? Godzilla the Wonder Dog? Kat Kora?

    Puppeteering Sick...

    Puppeteering while sick... Talk about being stuffed up. Take care not to pup-chuck.

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Just thought of a fun example of how the substance rather than the length of the part can be fun, memorable, and delightfully Muppety. Picture if you will, Link's first line in the movie ends up being something of a tongue-twister and he flubs it up - to which Piggy turns to him and admonishes...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    You know the saying, "There are no small roles, only small actors?" Well, when it comes to the Muppets, there may be small Muppets in stature but as Pepe so famously says he's not a shrimp, he's a king prawn. Ergo, "There are no small roles, only King Prawns"...meaning maybe Pepe or others may...

    Muppet Babies - 20+ years later

    Longtime members of this forum know how i generally feel about Muppet Babies - they're a bit of a sore spot with me as i feel the show was one of the worst things that happened to the brand: That as the kids who grew up with The Muppet Show were growing up, along came a show with the Muppet...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    I know some people feel "The Muppets" (i have a feeling this is going to become forum-netiquette: placing "The Muppets" in quotes or italics when discussing the movie vs. the troupe...i really hope they rename the dang thing) is shunning the newer characters but at the same time - look at how...

    Your Muppet mistakes

    I also had my own initial misheard lyrics to RC... "Have you been athletes or have you heard voices" "The lovers, the streamers and me"

    Miss Piggy less aggressive with Kermit in season 5

    Yeah - but keep in mind by the end of the series, Piggy had somewhat accomplished her goals - even though Kermit would still deny they were a couple, she wasn't starting from square one in regards of getting his attention. By season five, the general public thought of them as "Kermit and Miss...

    MC Awards - We Need a Host

    That might be a fun "extra" - but i'm not big on anything that takes the awards too outside of the forum itself. Someone forum awards that aren't based on the forum seems a bit purpose-defeating - and let's not forget, not everyone has the easist time with Youtube or the various vid share sites...

    First Look at "The Muppets" Logo

    I agree - given the original source is from a D23-esque cruise, i think this will largely be a frequently seen promotional image but not the ultimate "official" image seen on movie posters and the like. We're all assuming it's going to be "The New Logo" but no one's actually said so...

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    ...uh you may want to reread the title and the first post of this thread. It's for listing out our dreams, wishes, imagination, fan-fiction - stuff we would love to see regardless of actual possibility of it happening or not. Yes, we know people from Disney are watching this thread so are...

    Your Muppet mistakes

    LOL! That's hilarious! You should totally make your own character for something called Fruit Pain! I love stories like this (what Muppet fans fanwanked when they were kids) I know i made up some names for characters in my head until i knew what their real ones were - Janice was "Lip Lady"...

    Okay, this here thread is for everyone to gush about those things that they love so much that if the subject of it came up in conversation, you would totally sound like you either were in a commercial or worked for the company providing it! I'll start with two... Bio-True. Contact...

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    I also have to chime in with the wish for GOOD plush/puppets. Not just for Disney's Muppets but also SW's Sesame Street. Now granted, since the Muppet fandom community got spoiled with the poser replicas most plushes that aren't meant to be high-dollar limited edition replicas will pale in...

    Whatever happened to the Muppetzine articles?

    Yes, they were removed at Danny's request. This was a sad chapter in Muppet fandom history. Danny and Phil had a disagreement over various aspects of how MC was being ran (i think the Amazon portal was a particular sticking point) and it escalated into a bit of a war where Danny eventually...

    Your Muppet mistakes

    Don't feel too bad about that one. That was the first big Muppet project where Eric really made his debut, so if you're a Muppet fan who doesn't really follow all the "backstage" stuff, and you're not one who really pays attention to the credits, a lot of people probably didn't notice the...
