    Topless Robot's 5 Best & 5 Worst Muppet Movie Moments

    i actually love never before, never again. i thought that whole scene was sweet and funny and the perfect, "love at first sight" moment to establish piggy as head over heels forever for kermit

    Most Romantic Kermit/Piggy moments

    from the show, movies, specials, press, anything i like the part in the new movie, when he asks her to stay for him. it's about time

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    ok, well, what about the cartoon network? they have quirky, weird shows sometimes and a niche audience as well

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    if something has a fanbase and might be a hit, i don't see how being too "clean" would be a problem for them. networks want ratings, they don't care what kind of content draws it in. and not every show on comedy central is the same kind of thing. i don't personally think daily show/colbert is...

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    it won't be considered a flop, in any way. the truth is, profit IS what matters to studios, not total gross as much. i mean think about it, have any of the harold and kumar movies been actual big hits? yet they still keep making them because they're cheap and i guess they have their audience...

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    well, the golden globe nominations come out wednesday and i bet you anything it gets a best picture nomination there for comedy/musical. awards buzz is always something that helps sometimes, to put on the ads and reinforce how good it is to people i still think comedy central is a good fit for...

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    well, but given that the fanbase (as we just found out), is actually mostly adults now, who's to say that the exact demo that networks want (18-34) wouldn't be the ones tuning in? i'd say there's a pretty good chance for that, actually. i think maybe abc or fox would be a pretty good place. but...

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    i think international sales will be interesting to watch. worldwide grosses sometimes tell a different story, isn't the smurfs the one that had HUGE overseas numbers that completely dwarfed it here? maybe the nostalgia factor overseas will be less niche than it apparently is here. if it is...

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    no, because that would imply that it's a failure, which is not true. it's going to end with at least 80 million, and some awards nominations for songs, i'm sure. not to mention it has not been released overseas yet the reality of it being "niche" just means that the muppets don't mean anything...

    Some thoughts on Muppet Treasure Island

    not a big fan of the songs in this one. love led us here is ok, but i think they kind of ruined it by having it play with them hanging upside down in the scene, it's too silly

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    i think so too. i want more than anything for them to get some kind of weekly base for which to build new fans from. that's what would really do it imo, a show that people can tune in to.

    What's in store for the Muppets in 2012 article

    is that really true though? the head of marketing got canned because of the film's performance? that can't be true- they couldn't have done any more press and the movie is a SUCCESS. it's going to make at least 80 million, got stellar reviews, will likely get golden globe and oscar noms (which...

    Found a video for "The Muppets" finale

    is there a clip floating around of the ending with everyone singing mahna mahna?

    What's the most FUN episode of The Muppet Show?

    i have a question about this. if i'm watching the show, would it be better to watch the episodes in the order they originally aired, or just as they're listed? or does it not matter?

    Some questions on The Muppet Movie

    i thought it was interviews plus the show, actually. and some of the specials, like muppets go to hollywood, go to the movies, fantastic miss piggy, etc.

    What's the most FUN episode of The Muppet Show?

    kenny rogers. my favorite episode, i think

    If "The Muppets" is a success: What's next?

    hopefully, they would take a chance and let them do it their way. the spirit of the old muppet show wouldn't really fit with the disney channel as it is now, imo. it's too different in humor not that it would be exactly the same, either. i'm sure some things would be different

    Muppet Canon/Chronology/Timeline

    i get it. that's funny, i wonder how they would have handled it in another movie if jim had lived like i said, after that movie, jim DID have kermit cop to the relationship itself, in interviews and stuff, so maybe it would have gone somewhere eventually

    Muppet Family Christmas

    there's a giant blu-ray set coming out?
