Whoa - that's some pretty lofty praise there - i'll be sure to remember that the next time i accidentally pull the wrong side of the car up to the gas station pump...

Eurythmics' cover of The Smiths' "Last Night I Dreamt" - definately one of my fave tracks they ever recorded.

I think it's about dang time for some Stinky/Herbert Birdsfoot scenes. The show just doesn't feel right without any Stinky/Herb interaction. Whatsamattah with those SST writers?

Basically to offer a "Cliff's Notes" version of my above post... If i'm going to shell out three figures for a Muppet replica, the first words out of the mouths of everyone i show it to should be an excited "OH MY GOSH - IS THAT A *REAL* KERMIT?" (either regular or Reporter Kermit would...

I've tended to stay out of the replica discussions because my current financial situation being what it is, i just can't justify buying an item of that kind of expense. However, i hold onto hope that that will eventually change - and i know that threads like these are just as valuable for the...

I've said it elsewhere, but i'm sure we will see dvd releases of the various specials - but not right away. Disney outright owning the Muppets as a brand is a different situation than what the Muppets have had in the past - having a deal with a seperate company set up to distribute videos...

You're both right. The Cookie Monster puppet has traditionally had a hole in the back of the mouth that cookies or other props could disappear down when eaten. However it seems this feature has been dropped with some of the more recent Cookie Monster puppet builds (just a guess, but i'm...

I'm among those that could care less - i concur that the main reason for tuning in is for the commercials - remember when there was about a three year run of Super Bowl ads with Muppets in them? Those were the days! Unless they show any of the Give a Day ads, looks like this year will be...

Wow - i remember the humble beginnings - where does the time go? This was really the first major site for fans to congregate - up til MC it was all usenet groups and small niche sites with no forums or real way to communicate with others. I've gone from being super-active at the beginning...

...and who could forget Farscape's take on the body switching cliche, "Out of Their Minds"? Usually if Farscape resorts to a cliche, they do something different than usual with it - so not only did people switch twice (before getting back to the right bodies) but also didn't shy away from...

Now that makes sense. If there hadn't been all this other stuff going on (including the rest of the end of that episode cutting off early to something totally different), i wouldn't have questioned the inclusion of the Healthy Habits sketch (in the back of my mind i was thinking that was a SST...

Ever since the new season started, my local PBS (KAET) has had continual problems with transmission glitches of all kinds when they air Sesame Street. I've often had to wait until the third time they air a particular episode to have a clean copy worth saving for my collection. They range from...

Awww... no love for the Frog in the Oatmeal? I LOVED that one and found it hysterical! I think Eric actually managed to out-Oz Frank in that one! Oh my, based on the discussions here i can just see the future pledge drives...Send money now or we reduce Zoe to the size of a Twiddlebug. We...

The "WTFZoe" bugs me not just as a puppet but it seems to indicate a major problem going on behind the scenes with the leadership at SW. Obviously someone came up with the idea. I'll even grant that maybe just maybe there`was one or even two people who agreed and thought it was a good idea...

The more i think about it, the more i so wish they would have gone that route. Think of it - after some suspenceful teasing of who's LG's date, it turns out to be Animal - even fancied up in a tux and top hat (which he eats). When asked for a comment from reporters/host, Animal replies "GOOGOO...

I'm sure it's not the end of the world if Cookie Monster touches a real cookie and i'm sure he has many MANY times before. It's just smart to minimize prolonged and continual exposure to the oils in them hence prop cookies whenever they can use them. But i'm sure there aren't tons of people in...

After an unusually late August ceremony last year, this year's Daytime Emmys will go back to taking place earlier in the year; June to be specific. No word yet on whether they'll be televised or not. Sadly, they're continuing with the lousy rule they implemented last year where performers are...

I'm glad the complete series was put on dvd. Animated Fraggle Rock was actually a good idea giving the characters the ability to do stuff in animation that may not have worked as well in puppetry/live action and the show did have some pretty good writing - but the animation itself which seemed...

Sos, of course! Like, you know - "spaghetti sos", "hot sos", "hitting the sos". Mmm...dinnertime!

Piggy has chopped Animal (or at least head-butted him since she didn't have her hands free) in the At the Dance where Animal takes a beating by various characters ("Will you stop trying to cut in?")
