    I thought he was still working for Henson, just not Sesame Workshop.

    Re: Rizzo's absence: if it doesn't seem obvious now it will be in about two and a half months when it comes time for us Muppet fans to have our annual MCC viewing.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Haunted Mansion on Disney+

    This is exactly what I was referring to by this special having the weirdest, most random cameos. Did he previously retire from performing? I saw a couple days ago that evidently Wandavision got a DVD release so I guess anything's possible.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Haunted Mansion on Disney+

    On the positive side I have to say I was delighted with all the references to the original attraction and overall just the scope of Muppet characters throughout; heck, the dog from Bunny Picnic was in it! Overall though, I was just...bored. And I never thought 'bored' would be an adjective I'd...

    The Mysterious Mary-Ann

    I'm speaking of course of the lady made immortal in the Brian Jay Jones biography that was Jim's on-and-off girlfriend from the early/mid 80's to his death. I've read the Jones biography about ten times now and every time Mary-Ann makes her first appearance, I'm always equal parts fascinated...

    Dealbreaker TV Characters

    Darlings-First I feel I should say that putting aside my issues with Briscoe, the Dillards played PHENOMENAL music and that is something I'll never take away from them. As Andy Griffith himself told it, the Dillards felt a little too self-conscious about their acting skills and that was the...

    Dealbreaker TV Characters

    Ellie-I consider myself a pretty strong feminist but Ellie's thin skin when it comes to gender issues (making it about gender even when it's really not) really gets at me. I have the same issue with Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing. And it's really a shame because I've seen Eleanor...

    Updating my list to a) revive the thread and b) to give a chance to discuss the thirty other characters on it besides Charles and Ernest T.. -Mr. Carlin (Bob Newhart Show) -Wojo (Barney Miller) -Niles (Frasier) -Suzanne/Etienne (Designing Women) -Briscoe/Helen/Ernest T. (Andy Griffith) -Charles...

    Alternate Junior Gorg Suit Performers?

    I'm not ready to give up on this so I again refer to the video in the OP. At 0:56, the suit performer is neither Rob nor Frank.

    RIP Jessica Walter

    I'm torn on this. While I personally don't like how unrelentingly negative Mallory is, I also realize that's not a good enough reason to kill her off. However, they may have to for the simple reason that no one else sounds like Jessica so recasting her would be fruitless. they only got away...

    R.I.P. David Ogden Stiers

    Since first responding to this thread I've realized that Stiers had several TV guest spots that I quite enjoyed: Matlock, Frasier and Next Gen.

    Muppet Classic Theater Revisited

    Something else that occurred to me after starting this thread: when Gonzo takes a picture of the wolf and shows it to the villagers, he has presented them with proof and yet that doesn't seem to make a difference. Is the point supposed to be that it was the villagers have more deep-set issues...
