    MUPPET CENTRAL FORUM AWARDS #7 (Take Two)

    Okay, so as most people know (and if you don't know, i'm about to tell you), this year's Muppet Central Awards almost was cancelled due to low participation. However because 2010 was such a great year for the forum and many of its participants really deserve to be recognized, some tweaks have...

    Modern Classics

    Okay, we all know that most people feel that modern Sesame doesn't even compare to classic SST. And while that may be true to an extent overall, sometimes modern SST does get a bad rap with some really great moments being overlooked as everyone just sees The Elmo Show, heavily repeated...

    ABC's daytime dramas need support now!

    Many of you know that one of my other major areas of fandom is One Life to Live and that i've been a major supporter of keeping the rapidly dying daytime drama genre on the air ( http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=44778 ).

    Original Mah Na Mah Na on Cheeze Pleeze

    Cheeze Pleeze is a weekly 30 minute radio show that's somewhat similar to Dr. Demento - they play weird, comic, silly, or just bad stuff. This week they played the original Mah Na Mah Na by Piero Umiliani! I can totally see why Jim loved it and how he got inspired to interpret the song the way...

    Heads up Nathan Fillion fans

    Something that's really kinda bugged me about the Muppet/Fraggle comics

    This generally applies more to the Fraggle comics though there's also been some of this with the Muppet Classics comics too, so since it's both Fraggles and Muppets - i'm posting this in "Muppet Merchandise" as opposed to the Fraggle folder... This has kind of been a mild irritation for...

    Muppet Babies - 20+ years later

    Longtime members of this forum know how i generally feel about Muppet Babies - they're a bit of a sore spot with me as i feel the show was one of the worst things that happened to the brand: That as the kids who grew up with The Muppet Show were growing up, along came a show with the Muppet...

    When we go to see The Movie (identifying ourselves as Muppet Freaks) Part of the excitement of the 2011 movie for many of us and certainly myself will not only be the film itself but the experience of seeing it in the theatre with others. Unless something like work schedules and the like...

    Any archive of 1st MC forum?

    When MC forum made the transition from Delphi to here, the old forum had still been available for reading. I don't think it still exists there anymore so are all those old posts forever lost or are there any kind of archive anywhere?

    Muppet marathons past and present

    Inspired by the Hub's upcoming Muppet movie marathon, i thought i'd start a thread devoted to Muppet marathons. When a station or venue not only airs the Muppets, but hours of back-to-back Muppets, that says a lot about their staying power. In addition to this four movie block this weekend...
