    Henson-related video games

    Forget I mentioned having levels inspired by MWoO and LTS--just "new" levels inspired by the recent two movies. Also ad Constantine as a playable character. (Curse not having "Edit" buttons on our posts anymore!)

    Henson-related video games

    I know this is not too creative per se, but how about a sequel/expanded version of Muppet Race Mania? Possible new playable characters can include Uncle Deadly, Lew Zealand, Walter, Sweetums (who was AI-only in the original), Beauregard (also previously AI-only) and more; possible new tracks...

    Is there a reason why Disney dislikes releasing Muppet DVD's?

    To give you an idea of the age we live in, if anything we should be asking for Disney to release TMS (in its entirety, let alone S4 and S5) on iTunes--in this day and age physical-media releases are becoming too expensive for many companies. An iTunes release doesn't have to be necessarily...

    Songs that remind you of Muppets

    Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I'd like to contribute something. Basically any time I hear a song used on TMS being used in another context I tend to think of the Muppets. How many times has this phenomenon happened to you? TMS features performances of many licensed songs--pop "oldies,"...

    The Star Wars episode

    Look on the bright side, if Disney (ever) releases TMS S4 on DVD, they can include the Star Wars episode at no additional cost!

    Am I the only one who would be intrested in a Pigs In Space spin-off?

    I had this idea that Pigs In Space should become an animated action/comedy series like Duck Dodgers, with Captain Link Hogthrob (voice of Jeff Bennett) and his crew battling intergalactic villains. I can totally see the other Muppets as cameo roles in the series, but 1) we still need a proper...

    RE-RELEASE the first season of THE MUPPET SHOW!

    If they do re-issue S1, it'd most likely be Blu-Ray, IMO.

    Is Time-Life's Best of TMS out of print?

    Well, short answer yes. The whole 15-disc TBOTMS lot was, however, originally going to be re-issued by Columbia/TriStar (with 5 bonus discs), but the subsequent Disney acquisition meant only 7 of them (Elton John, Mark Hamill, Harry Belafonte, Peter Sellers, Steve Martin, George Burns and Diana...

    Jokes You Don't Get/Misheard Lines/Lyrics

    Hello. Here is a thread where you can discuss jokes in Muppet productions you don't get, or lines or lyrics you have seemed to mishear. Here's mine: In TMM, I have been confused by this gag: DeLuise: ... I have lost my sense of direction Kermit: Have you tried Harry Grishner? I have...

    The Missing Link Hogthrob

    Interesting, snichols1973. When I had an idea for a "new" Pigs in Space animated series, I'd always picture Jeff Bennett voicing Link (essentially a drowsier version of his Johnny Bravo voice). I'll have to check this one out. Anyways, it's nice to know an old favorite character of ours has...

    Why the Elton John Muppet show is my favorite

    Admittedly the EJ episode of TMS introduced me to what Elton really was (more than just Lion King). The only thing that irked me is when I later discovered "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" was edited on TMS. Maybe "vodka and tonics" (http://www.eltonography.com/songs/goodbye_yellow_brick_road.html)...

    Misheard Lines...?

    Hi. This thread can be used for clarification of misheard dialogue or lyrics in TMS and the movies. In the TMS S3 episode where Fozzie saws a robot in half, the robot starts to cry ("Mama, mama!"), to which Fozzie responds, "Oh, shut the..." Was Fozzie about really about to say "Shut the...

    If You Could Bring Back One Lost Character...

    ...Who would it be? Disney has shown with the two most recent movies that they have an interest in reviving "Lost" characters--characters that either are obscure, disappeared into the background or gone mute due to the passing of a performer. So who would YOU bring back if you worked for Disney?

    Ideas for TMS Boxset Bonus Features

    Hi. I know we are waiting for Disney to release the last two seasons of TMS on DVD (be thankful the issue of the Star Wars episode in S4 is resolved!), let's brainstorm potential bonus feature ideas. Mind you, this also assumes that Disney will re-issue the first three seasons on Blu-Ray...

    Muppets spitting, drinking from straws, and blowing out candles

    Does Big Bird blowing out birthday candles in a (circa) season 21 episode (I can't remember the title) count?

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I had a really weird one once. Let's just put it this way: :): It's the Muppet show with our very special guest stars, James P Sullivan and Mike Wazowski, Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Not impossible considering the fact that now Disney owns the Muppets!

    Top Annoying Misnaming People Do

    I remember seeing/hearing on an interview with Frank Oz on A&E's Sesame Street documentary that when people say "Hey you're the voice of Grover/Cookie Monster/Bert/etc," Frank responds "I created more than just a voice, I created a character." That should prove those who call Muppeteers "Voice...
