That actually was a first season episode. Do we want to count Cantus in this, or is he too far out of the main characters' leagues to be one?

I don't know if this can help in any way, but when was young I had a video that included an animated version of this sketch. I'm not sure if it was released before or after the actual show version was, but if it was before, maybe they were working of the video edition for the poster? I don't...

On that token, we have to wonder what prior experience Kermit might have had with Fraggles before, since he does seem to be familiar with the concept of Fraggle holes and the Rock. It's been almost a decade since I last saw the special, so my recollections may be a bit off (and please correct...

One thing I'm now wondering is if the vintage CPB tags and NET/PBS IDs would be left intact on a reissued complete episode.

Roughly what year did Sneak Peak Previews start, and was the format consistant from the beginning (i.e., Telly spills the popcorn, they trade Phooeys and Wows afterwards), or was there some variation at first? :grouchy:

Try singing it 5 times fast; now there's a challenge for you.

I guess you can count me in as well. Where do I sign? And who exactly are we sending it to? HIT? The Henson family? Disney? All of them? :confused:

Well only someone with an IQ of roughly 0 would not consider putting her with the others on future projects, given how solidly we the generation who saw the show on its original go round connect all 5 of them together (then again, though, you would be hard pressed today to find any Hollywood...

Almost forgot last night how much I idolized Oscar back in the day, so really it's a tie between the two of them. :grouchy:

It was probably made in the mid-late 70s, but was still seing air time in the late 80s. What I can remember about it was several children in an inner city setting buying snow cones on a hot summer day, more or less. Drumming, maybe on steel drums, lasted throughout, and we'd see a lot of...

My favorite one is actually a tie between the Hickory Dickory Dock piece where the horse stands in for the mouse and destroys the clock, and the Little Old Lady Who Lived in a Shoe sketch where Kermit has to go through the Young Man Who Lived in a Glove (if you'd knock on his door, he'd give you...

Grover is my favorite as well ("Hey Charlie, we've got another winner here, we need a J for the alphabet soup!")

As fate would have it I put it on just before I read this message. Happy anniversary. :)

Thank you kindly. This will come in handy for a project I'm currently working on.

Who remembers all of them? I recall #2 featured a carnvial, #5 methods of transportation, #6 a farm, #10 a medieval theme, #11 jungle animals, and #12 U.S. landmarks. What were the others?

There's a clip of HBO's main campaign from 1983 ("There's No Place Like HBO") on YouTube that has some footage that probably would count as an original promo; about halfway through it we get a shot of several children watching it on TV (it's a little hard to make out from the distance the set is...

Yes, that's another of the irksome Muppets edits we hate the most. You'll probably be able to find the complete version somewhere on Ebay; I was fortunate enough to a few years back after my cassette version was eaten by the player in the mid 90s. :sympathy:

1. Muppet Family Christmas. It ALMOST NEVER gets any better than this. I was in bliss after an hour of seeing it the first time it aired and stayed that way the rest of the week. What could ever be better that seeing pretty much all of them together end one roof with ultimately the Master...

Did anyone here catch HBO's original promotions for the series before it began? If so, how did they go about hyping it? :excited:

One that hasn't been mentioned yet that I always like was the "J-train" where the large pink J chugs around the railroad yard ("j-j-j-j-j-j-j-j-j-j"), in turn hooking up with green letters that happen to be lying around around the yard to form the words join, jump (it jumps over the U-M-P) and...
