    Clifford and the Electric Mayhem

    Clifford: Humerous Hip Person Zippity Zap in the EM - now there's a thought! Just to add another dimension to this thread I think it's worth considering another role Clifford has filled within the Muppets. In TMS, Gonzo once reffered to Floyd an "humerous hip person" and in MFS Clifford...

    Muppets in T2 (The Times)

    He did see that the drug smuggling was "supposed" and only a story; not neccessarily true. I don't think it was a badly writtten article and it seems to fit in what many around here have said about the way Disney have used the Muppets - or not as the case my be. However, I accept that the...

    Best Muppet Film

    I'd like to say a few words in defence of The Muppets Take Manhatten. Firstly, it is the film that challenged the Muppets - took them out of their comfort zone and let them appear in a much more grown-up and sophisticated film. The music ventured to emotional depths hither to unexplored by...

    Rock version of "Rainbow Connection"

    I like it apart from the "have you been half asleep" bit - I don't think it's quite right. Well done though

    Also Rowlf and Doctor Teeth! When spelling out something for someone, you can't resist slipping the odd 'cookie monster' between the letters You watch your "It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" DVD in all the different languages in order to see how close foreign voice artists come to...

    Three Uncle Deadley Figures Announced

    It's funny how Palisades won't give us the figures we really want but will still try and squeeze the last few morsals of profit from us with these 2 unnessecary repaints. Anyway, can I ask if UK users would recommend OMGCNFO.com or not please...

    100 Greatest Kids TV Shows

    Love the blinking! Anyway - TMS clips included the titles, Rudolph Nureyev and Piggy in the Sauna (certainally not children's TV), a short clip of Piggy with the railway track on her back. Many of the clips were the set-up lines without the jokes, which was a bit of a problem. Such as "I...

    Best Muppet musician?

    It's probably Rowlf (relied on heavily to fill in on TMS) but Dr Teeth (maybe a bit of a broader range) and Johnny Fiamma are also good.

    100 Greatest Kids TV Shows

    Sesame Street actually comes in at number 32 - I think your list is the right shows but not necesarily in the right order Tutter. The Sesame Street clips are, I believe, from the very beginning with clay animated titles.The original Big Bird (small head), Bert and Ernie are shown: Ernie sung...
