    Should Fraggle Rock be revived?

    The whole thing about Fraggle Rock coming back to HBO is generating a lot more buzz then I expected. Considering the show has been rerun on the Hub and TNT without much excitement from the public, I didn't think people would've cared so much. Some people think that maybe HBO is testing the...

    Favorite Kevin Clash Character

    Alright, so last time we did Fran Brill: http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/whos-your-favorite-fran-brill-character.62339/ And @dwayne1115 and I decided to do Kevin next. It was very hard for me to figure out which characters to do because, unlike many of the other performers like...

    Why do people think that Sesame Street isn't good?

    It seems like an odd question, I know. You may be thinking, surely everyone loves Sesame Street, people always go on and on about how they loved the show or love such and such characters. And as we've seen with the huge news coverage of the human characters' departures, clearly the show is...

    Favorite Fran Brill Character

    I know @dwayne1115 is the one who usually starts these threads, but I wanted to take a crack at it. Can't let Dawayne have all the fun now, can we? ;) I'm sure this'll be quite interesting. Prairie and Zoe are both very beloved characters so i'm excited to see what you guys think.

    Classic episodes you want to see

    This is something we've talked about in a few other threads so I figured it was time to finally make a thread for it so we could discuss it properly. There are so many episodes I want to see that I can't list all of them here but here are a few: I really want to see the first appearances of...

    Anything Muppet Appreciation Thread

    The AMs have had a lot of memorable moments over the years, but because they're not all defined characters we often forget about them. AMs can be, well, anything, thus the name. They can be construction workers, game show hosts, celebrity caricatures, kids, adults, sometimes even animals. The...

    September 24 should be International "Kermit Day"

    I just got this idea while reading one of @JimAndFrank 's posts on another thread. We all know Jim Henson's birthday is September 24, but what you might not know is, Kermit's other performer, Steve Whitmire shares a birthday with Jim. So, since both of the Kermits birthdays are on the same day...

    Why did Sesame Street cast members leave?

    This is something I think about quite often. So many actors have left the show over the years, yet aside from a few like Sonia Manzano, Northern Calloway and a few others, we really don't know the reasons behind most of their departures.

    Your Favorite Recent Sesame Street Episodes

    What are your favorite main story lines from the past 13 years of the show (seasons 34-season 46)? My favorites are usually the ones when there are a lot of characters in it or when the older humans come back for a cameo. I don't quite know why, I guess maybe those episodes are just better...

    The British TV show thread
