    Hot Dog TV?

    Wow - these debuted beginning of August and so far there's only been TWO? That's like one a month! Fiendish Footlong and Truth Or Dare are the only segments of these i'm aware of.

    Underrated TV

    You Can't Do That on Television. Yes, it was a bit of a hit when it was on (but still a bit underground because not everyone had cable/Nickelodeon at the time.) It never seems to be brought up when people talk about classic Nick anymore (even though the green slime originated from the show and...

    Disney’s New On-line Muppet Store launches October 1

    Nice to see this, but not sure how "new" it is...stores like this have been on Amazon for awhile and i'm sure there's previously been a Muppets Store on Amazon previously. Still it is organized differently plus has those exclusives and videos so basically it's a well-hyped relaunch. But the...

    Fic: Muppets from Earth

    Just finished the last chapter. I'm not always that big on fan fiction but there are some well-done exceptions and this was definately one of them that i loved. Did have to comment on this one part - you may have said at the beginning when the story took place but i didn't remember so i was...

    Muppets Based on Contemporary Celebrities/Pop Culture

    It seems so strange to think about it now because both the look and character have come such a long way from those humble beginnings, but Miss Piggy was based on Peggy Lee (with a "proto name" of "Piggy Lee") You can totally take any picture of Peggy Lee, draw pig ears and snout on it and it'll...

    Fan Fiction: Muppet Beach Party

    Ush-gush? Thinks a moment. Wasn't that a kids' clothing manufacturer? Ush-gush b'gush?

    Just imagine if we all had a 3d figure printer

    Gobo's Discovery episode. Boober thinks Gobo's been flattened by the Invisible Garboyle and has lots of great lines but that one's the best.

    You might be an obsessed Muppet fan if...

    Yeah, i myself have my Muppet songs to listen to when i've got the blues to make me feel better but my top choice is Ernie & Bert's "Clink Clank" - it's IMPOSSIBLE to listen to that song without cracking a smile if not all out giggling.

    Muppet Snow White

    Yeah definately an odd ending. On the one hand, it was a great tribute to Muppet Endings, yet on the other i have no idea if that was actually the original planned end or if it was a rewrite. Usually when i read either the Muppet or Farscape comic, the first time i read it, i enjoy reading...

    Katy Perry song banned from Sesame Street Season 41

    The controversy certainly helped it. It's one of the most watched clips on Youtube now. Which is kinda cool because the Ask Elmo is a featured clip with an Elmo pic next to the Youtube logo today! It's basically an Elmo Day (what a day for it to happen to fall on too!) I realized in my...

    Just imagine if we all had a 3d figure printer

    "Just imagine if we all had a 3d figure printer". Nah, i don't wanna imagine it. My figure doesn't look that great in 3d. (BTW one of my all time favorite Boober quotes - "One...two...oh thank goodness he has all three dimensions!" Hmmm...now my mind is reeling...3d figures...Boober -...

    Guest Stars: Who Enjoyed It & Who Didn't?

    Not so sure on that one. I think any stiffness on her part was more due to general discomfort with doing the acting stuff (not that she hadn't acted before but she is first and foremost a dancer). But you can tell in her eyes and expressions during the various parts of the show where she's...

    Jim Henson's Red Book

    Oh my - how many fans have wanted access or some type of publication of these for ages? This is a very exciting gift to the fans and a nifty way to celebrate his birthday! (But of course how many of us would love to see his blue book or his little black book) :)

    Katy Perry song banned from Sesame Street Season 41

    My earlier post pretty much says everything i could say about the whole flap, but just to further the discussion and make it more interesting, i thought i'd throw in something that hasn't been covered (insert your own joke here) As i said before, i think there was an accumulation of little...

    Overrated Music

    Yorick, your 5:27 post is well stated. Alternative music itself is marvelous and far from overrated. The problem was that once radio stations all were being broken down into Very Specific Niches, all of a sudden around the early-mid 90's, you got the Clear Channelization of alternative music...

    Katy Perry song banned from Sesame Street Season 41

    I've got to admit, i'm a bit divided on this. Pulling it because of Youtube comments is really pretty stupid given the maturity level of a lot of people who post them...and for frog's sake - they can pull this clip because of Youtube feedback yet they can ignore the humongous amount of...

    Fan Fiction: Muppet Beach Party

    Hubbawha? Are you saying the Muppets' video of Kokomo was made in the late 80's? Where are you getting that from? Confused!

    Overrated Music

    Yep, and chances are it would have been Brittany Underwood (who plays Langston Wilde on One Life to Live) - she was in the running and made it through the final callbacks. I think Miley's being Billy Ray Cyrus' daughter and the chance to capitalize on the family casting was too irresistable...

    Where is this Miss Piggy quote from?

    I'm thinking either Miss Piggy's Guide to Life or one of the Dear Miss Piggy columns from Muppet Magazine since i'm sure that was a written quote and not one that was said. I just have to break out my copies to find specifically where it was.

    Bands You Could See Working With The Muppets?

    Not only is Lady Gaga with The Muppets a match made in heaven, but i could easily see it lending to a hilarious backstage plot with Piggy genuinely concerned that Gaga would be the only female singer who might outshine her so she tries to come up with a costume so outrageous and over the top...
