    New Fraggle Plushes in Claw Game Machines

    Just as i was exciting Safeway, i was stopped in my tracks by a very exciting sight - in the Claw Game Machine, there were a couple of Gobo Fraggle plushes among the various prizes. And...a really good likeness unlike most of the plush photos we've tended to see where the moment you lay eyes on...

    The Celebrity Look-Alikes Thread

    When i was in my teens and 20's, i used to be told i looked like all sorts of people on a constant basis - i usually didn't agree but every now and then i'd get one i could see. I haven't had that happen for several years now but it would happen all the time when i was younger. I often would...

    New Muppets Video: Beaker Sings "Dust in the Wind"

    It's ultimately a satire of Youtube comments. The only catch is since you can't really see comments within the video, they mixed them with annotations with would usually come from the poster not the viewers. I can also see where a lot of people might not make the connection of "being flamed"...

    MTV finally takes "Music" out of name

    Yeah, i've actually heard of it. It first came to my attention when the only copy of the ultra-rare video for Eurythmics' "Never Gonna Cry Again" circulating among the tape traders/fans was from Rage (it wasn't shown in USA because the first album which it's from wasn't released here and it...

    MTV finally takes "Music" out of name

    Rage? I'm guessing you're in Australia? (Hard to keep up when it's not in the location field). Wow - i envy you - they play videos that hardly anywhere else in the world does!

    Double Standards, anyone?

    Oooh - i've wanted one of those propeller beanies for ages - and the soy isn't at all off-pudding to me. ("Soy what" i say) But wait a minute here (thinks about this)... If you have a hat filled with pudding, don't you inevitably end up with a lot of mousse in your hair?

    Double Standards, anyone?

    But haven't you heard the expression "wherever i hang my hat is where i call home"? But if it does come to that - what kind of hat is it? Can i have it? Anything else you need looked over like say some Muppet collectables or something... WAIT! What am i saying? We can't not have a...

    Creepiest Muppet Moment

    Aww...now Frazzle's a perfect example of what i was talking about earlier how i've always loved the Muppet Monsters and they never scared me. Frazzle's always been one of my favorites. But...apparently you weren't alone in finding him creepy. In the early 90's when Jerry Nelson was doing a...

    Kermit having different homes on SS

    The life of a jet-setting frog celebrity. We know Kermit was born and raised in the swamp and often goes back to visit. Kermit tends to have his places on Sesame Street messed up or destroyed via various acts of fate (or monsters) which no doubt have necessitated some moves or severe...

    Unstable Fables

    Nothing to do with the Muppets. Henson sold the Muppets to Disney about six years ago which means that Henson has needed to re-establish the rest of their existing properties they still own and come up with new ones. The Unstable Fables are one of those new ones. So far they've been using...

    The 'What Song Are You Currently Listening To?' Thread

    Miracles by Pet Shop Boys. Very pure, uplifting song without any of their usual trademark irony.

    What if it's a Death by Chocolate Birthday Cake? How many sins are that? Let's count them and find out. One...two...and one curtains set on fire by the candles!

    Double Standards, anyone?

    The old saying goes to stay away from discussing politics and religion. Unfortunately over the last decade or so there's been such a climax of the two becoming so deeply intertwined - when really they shouldn't be. But as the USA has become a deeply divided country in politics, so too have...

    Muppet Comics Audio Recordings?

    ...Hmm, you know if they could get the Muppet performers to record them, they'd end up with a product that would totally be snatched up beyond the visually impaired community - who wouldn't love to hear the Muppeteers breathing life into those marvelous scripts the Boom! artists are writing for...

    Muppet Peter Pan

    That really does explain a LOT! Many characters looked like he was cribbing off of Roger's version of the characters and now i know why! Of course if one's doing that because it's by request and not their "normal" style, it's going to be like a tomboy being forced to wear a pink frilly dress...

    Confessing Crushes...

    Oh yes, i've totally had my teacher crushes back in high school and college. Of course college was just a wild time since i went to a community college on full President's Scholarship where there was a huge diversity in age groups as my fellow students...so it was the first time i started...

    Muppet King Arthur

    I caught that too and my jaw hit the floor wondering if that was a coincidence i was reading too much into or if it was a really sly jab...in an officially liscensed Disney book even! This is so cool to have not only talented people but total Muppet fanatics working on all these books! It...
