This has long been a part of the Muppet mythos...when TMTM came out, there were a whole bunch of press interviews showcasing the wedding scene with Piggy saying that they were now married since it was a real minister playing the part (and it was a real minister playing the "real minister") and...

Am a little less than a week behind on new threads so sorry for the belated congrats, but what a nifty time for the baby to make his debut production - just in time for Christmas; the most Muppety time of the year. I read this thread just literally after finishing rewatching Farscape: The...

Two thoughts on Rowlf: Yes he's returned very very slowly, not always among the cast, and when he is he typically doesn't say much. I think this is really just more of a side-problem of "The Muppet Show dilemma" without a regular-exposure project like The Muppet Show to help smooth it out...

Oh - an interesting sidenote i forgot to mention... my dvd player has a feature where you can watch something slightly slowed down or sped up and i've been in the habit of almost watching dvds sped up (great timesaver)...to the point where say if i happen to tune in to Sid the Science Kid as...

Okay, i think just about everyone can pretty much agree that Robin sounded a bit off in his very-first-ever time being done by someone other than Jerry, but three pages about how the character's reaching puberty is really stretching it. I don't sense that's what they're doing - just because...

It could be possible that the "other times" Statler sounded off may have been times Jerry Nelson was voicing him (he was the original performer to continue the character after Richard Hunt's death from the Muppet Christmas Carol to around It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas) Steve Whitmire...

Strangepork actually fared pretty well post-TMS given the limitations of his character...Link was a more-rounded puppet and archetype not really used elsewhere in the main Muppet cast that could work well backstage or in other sketches where Strangepork was harder to establish outside the Pigs...

Orphans? No? Okay, how about "Huppets"? Much to Disney's dismay, i'm sure the fan community will still call them "Muppets" even if Henson Co avoids using the term (especially as long as some of the characters/puppets had their genesis in other Muppet productions - either now owned by...

The E&B claymation is actually very understandable once you know the history behind them. They were originally produced to be a stand-alone show to be aired in other countries (ones with childrens programming blocks of a bunch of short under 30 minute pieces - which these days are a rarity in...

For those wondering/hoping that any other Muppet Christmas specials or movies would be broadcast anywhere (besides the new Letters to Santa of course) this year, It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie will be airing on WGN 12/20 early evening (check your local listings for the specific time in...

When i was a kid, i loved comics and cartoons that made me laugh - i never cared for either animated cartoons about super heroes or comic books about them. But i eventually got into Alpha Flight when i was around college age as i loved the idea of a gay super hero and there was a big deal about...

Well the puppet did rarely pop up in non-speaking cameos after first season (such as closing number in fourth season Shields and Yarnell episode) but basically as far as lines or anything other than being a part of a crowd of extras, Hilda was a first season Muppet. The character did have a...

Ren and Stimpy was classsic (though at the time my cable company didn't deliver Nick so i first caught it on MTV which it was more suited towards - at least during the superior first season anyway) but nothing ever shown on Nick has ever come close to topping You Can't Do That On Television...

In chapter one, too bad there wasn't a super-bimbo to suggest a Four-For-All Pizza! :)

Personally VMX is one of my fave Muppet projects though it's not perfect there's just all sorts of great Muppety goodness and laugh out loud moments! I'm really quite surprised that it's not more accepted by other Muppet fans that post about it. Really the only things i didn't care for was the...

Both Clueless and Polly were great characters and both would be easily able to be brought back at any time for more hilarity (either seperate or together probably depending on Kevin Clash's availability or lack thereof)...they were actually brought back for some bizarre sketches for the UK...

I would imagine back when The Muppet Show was being taped and Camilla was an established character and the creative team knew that Jerry Nelson would be picking up the Camilla puppet to work with on a regular basis that they had a particular chicken set aside (and the eye focus/placement usually...

Ironically, i think that's actually what they're trying to do as the overall design is pretty close to gmc-era Piggy - esp compared to the ones before...they just don't have the proportions quite there which throws it off...but if they got it down, she could very much look like Piggy circa 81

That's both half off the total price i paid (with our lovely AZ 8.3% sales tax!) plus remember i've also ADDED the shipping costs to the total (instead of saying it's "x" dollars plus go ahead and add this much more for shipping) - so that's all the math done for you after taxes and shipping all...

If Disney released Muppets Family Christmas on dvd, i have a real good feeling that they'd learn from the TMS S1 dvds and be aware of fans' discontent with the previous MFC video releases and put its full financial and legal might behind them like they did the subsequent seasons of TMS...i'd...
