    Songs the Electric Mayhem could perform

    I can see them performing Elvis, but not sure as the singer. I actually think Pepe would be doing the singing or Johnny Fiama. Grounds For Divorce by Elbow If I Ever Feel Better by Phoenix Aerodynamic by Daft Punk Clint Eastwood and Feel Good inc. by Gorillaz with Clifford doing his own raps...

    Voiceless (Dedicated to Richard Hunt)

    Oh dear Lord, the Bunsen and Beaker scene tore me up. I've always adored Bunsen, so sweet if bumbling and oblivious. And seeing him trying to patch things up and then comforting Beaky, it just makes my heart swell to see him gain more dimensions and depth. Oh but poor Rowlf, that must've been...

    Help with website problem

    Um, can I also add a problem I have? I can't seem to make new threads as the main "message" box is missing. There's only the title and make a poll option. Please help?

    Voiceless (Dedicated to Richard Hunt)

    Yeah, I recognized that blunt somewhat cranky tone from 1st season and honestly I like that explanation that Zoot reverts to that stage when the chips are down. I miss crotchety 1st season Zoot, he was so fun.

    Voiceless (Dedicated to Richard Hunt)

    I love Animal's sweet gesture for Janice, I love the entire Electric Mayhem part overall. They're like a family within a family, supporting each other when times were rough. Although I do wonder why Zoot's being so bold all of a sudden. Something on his mind? Very interested in the talk between...

    Fraggle Rock Comics at Taco Bell

    Rats, don't know if the KFC/Taco Bell place near me is doing this. I wasn't even aware Taco Bell did toys! How do you ask for one of these? Do you buy a kid's meal or what?

    Your Thoughts: "The Muppets" Theatrical Film

    I personally thought that Doc Hopper had a bit of depth to him. He was silly, but he was also someone to be taken seriously. I would've loved this angle on Richman, being the opposite of Walter. Would've certainly made his motives even more personal and chilling.

    Songs the Electric Mayhem could perform

    Problem is, while I'd love to have Zoot sing anything, he really isn't much of a singer. Too bad the saxaphone isn't a popular band instrument save for jazz numbers.

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    I think there was an overall problem with communicating with the audience on what's going on. Important plot points and character were not given enough focus on and menial gags getting too much focus. Tex Richman's backstory, why the Muppets disbanded in the first place, what was up with the...

    Frank Oz worked on a new Muppet movie script

    THIS. I'm not eloquent in words, but I agree that there's been something lacking in substance in the new movie. I wanted to like it, I dragged my best friend and paid for her ticket to give her her first real Muppet experience. But as I sat there watching, I think she ended up liking it more...

    Your Thoughts: "The Muppets" Theatrical Film

    Okay, sorry one other observation that's been bugging me. Does anyone think that the puppets were behaving a little static? They seem to be missing that Muppety spark that makes them so alive.

    Redesigned Muppets for "The Muppets" movie

    Dr. Teeth's eyelids/sunglasses have been bothering me for a while now, the way they fall too far down so that the pupils show up in the glasses area thus breaking the illusion that they are his eyelids. Fozzie's gray eyebrows are very distracting and his head seems a little squashed and if you...

    TV Alert: Muppets on Jimmy Fallon December 23

    Not in the show that I can remember, but he does it with Kermit in Muppet Classic Theatre during the Elves and the Shoemaker act. I also agree, Matt would be very good as a backup for Bunsen. Matt soundsso very close with Robin, but he might have to remember to keep a more kiddish squeakier...

    Songs the Electric Mayhem could perform

    Really wanna hear EM take a crack at Weezer. Very funky songs, a shame they weren't in the Keep Fishin vid. (Besides Animal of course.)

    Your Favorite Romantic Muppet Moment

    Gonna get a bit of flak for this but... First season Zoot and Janice. This is mostly based on the At the Dance Sketches, where we generally got to see a much more snarky and assertive Zoot before he became a silent character. The fact that they were the most amorous couple in the sketches (if...

    The Muppets At Sea - (Unfinished)

    I think what I like most in this fic is how our beloved muppets keep prodding the fourth wall. Very in character and you managed to use silly cameos and author notes to your advantage, creating a believable muppety universe. The fic is lacking a bit in "meat" but the humorous flavor is what...

    Your Thoughts: "The Muppets" Theatrical Film

    Did anyone else feel a little let down by Walter's "grand finale"? I was hoping for a reprise medley of Life's a Happy Song/Muppet or a Man/Pictures in My Head, heck just a happier reprise of Pictures in my Head with the entire Muppet cast singing hopefully of the future instead of the past with...

    "The Muppets" What were you half expecting

    I was hoping like crazy that the Electric Mayhem would have their own song. If the chickens get to have an act, why not the Electric Mayhem? Or at least have them performing We Built This City instead of relying on a tape player/radio. Definitely agree with more Bunsen/Beaker and Electric...
