    Study on Elmo and Broccoli

    Generations of mothers have known this for a long time. Get your kid to believe that "The Lone Ranger brushes his teeth every day" and you were much more likely to have that kid brushing in the 1940s and 1950s. (You might then have to add that he used toothpaste :-) My generation was...

    Elmos World Parody: Practical Jokes

    There’s this Daffy Duck cartoon where all sort of crazy things happen, it just keeps getting goofier, till at the very end we see Bugs Bunny was drawing it as a joke. I parodied it once w/Star Trek Voyager, which often had holodeck malfunctions (think Virtual Reality w/unlimited power) -...

    Battle of the Muppet All-Stars

    Had to compliment this one, too - one of the funniest yet. You do a great job of showing Praire getting tough. I don't know that I've seen her that way, just agitaated at Cookie Monster's eating of cookies and otherwise like the typical 7YO girl. (I hadn't watched SS at all in the 1980s or...

    Hurricane episodes to air September 12-16

    Regarding Big Bird and rebuilding his nest... That's one of the big problems with muppets - we can humanize them only to a certain extent. Big Bird *could* have figured out or asked how to rebuild his nest, b/c he's a bird. Most 6-year-olds can't build a house too well :-) Hence they'd be...

    Minor Muppetz' TMS outline: Orson Wells

    Awesome homage to War of the Worlds - I dont' have time to do every one but I do read the ones with people I know/have heard of, and this was super. Sweetums an opera singer - that's priceless! Jamie Farr and Gonzo. I cn't think of anything else, but I just thought it might inspire you -...

    Journey To Ernie

    It's grown on me There are some good analytical skills involvedsometimes I wish it was a bit more complex, and especially that they'd do more of them. However, like Blues Clues, it does help develop important skills. And, Sesame Street didn't always have really comlex stuff - some of their...

    TMS fan fiction - William Shatner (revised again)

    (Added some jokes, and other stuff, because thanks to a comment in someone else's, I *finally* know what a UK number is! I always thought it was something to do with a British act that I for some reason didn't recall. Only after that comment did I realize it was an extra couple minutes that...

    Kermit's Family

    Cool, was wondering aabout Robin's parents Here's the thing, though - I agree w/"your father" causing less confusion and also it tying in with older sitcoms w/the dad generally being tougher. But, the thing i, we never see either of Robin's parents. I suspect it's possible Robin's mother...

    TMS Partial idea (fill in, please)

    I can't stand suspense - so rather than make people wait, I did this now so I could be done with it. In it's completed form: The Muppet Show with William Shatner Piggy (entering William Shatner’s dressing room): Oh, Mr. Shatner, only two minutes till show time. Shatner: Thanks...

    TMS Partial idea (fill in, please)

    WOw, thanks. I didn't think I'd do as w4ell since I don't remember the characters as well - and only the main ones. However, I'll try - just don't expect it real soon. Then again, some of the others don't do their scenes real fast, so I guess it's okay. I just get more impatient about...

    TMS Partial idea (fill in, please)

    Sorry, it doesn’t compare, perhaps, with my Elmo’s World stuff; for which I have no more ideas. I’d like this to be a group work, really, because frankly, I can only think of certain ideas for it. I’ll give the outline and let you al fill in the rest. I was a big Star Trek fan when I was 6...

    Elmo's World parody - "The I's Have It"

    Or...It Couled Be Worse I will again be very busy for a while, so won't be back here for a number of weeks - don't kno what number, though :-) Definitely after vaacaation to lurk , anyway; I'm anxious to see how the All-Star stuff and the beginning of SS go. But, before I go, someone said...

    Bert and Ernie, Cousins?

    Which can still support the college student idea. They could have been on a trip with some college group - perhaps Professor Grover or even Forgetful Jones' more well-known cousin led it :-) I mean, I don't know how you get that job. They would thus be able to be shown not having jobs because...

    Cool, thanks! You learn something new every day!

    Sesame Street (In the Begining)

    Yep, lots of fun. I sometimes, sadly, forget thaat's where Kermit got his start. I love how Oscar's mom was one of the first - and I'm glad you have Gordon and Susan showing a little surprise at some of these creatures - a "what's this?!" "Wow, look at that!" type of mentality. I'd have...

    I drew something...

    Nice drawing. Anytime Bunsen's involved, though, I don't think it's a fight. Something Muppet Labs made just went seriously wrong. :-)

    when did the amount of sponsors get smaller?

    Among those fuzzy memories of when I was 5 and 6 is "Sesame Street is brought to you by the letters Whaever and Whatever, and by the number Whatever." (Wait, I just said that's a letter :-) So, by the middle 70s it would have been 2 and 1. I don't recall there being 2 numbers at any time...

    Battle of the Muppet All-Stars

    Yes, just read the whole thing and it's hilarious. While I only know SS and TMS, + and only the main stars of each, I am still really enjoying it. I though Snuffy would be best against Piggy, but then actually had the tickling idea the moment Elmo stepped in the ring, only because of how my...

    On Writing Fan Fiction (Rules & Advice)

    You know, Skeeter, someone said it would have been nice at the end of my last EW parody to have Kiersten getting Elmo to say "I", but that's exactly why I didn't, what you say about making new characters too perfect. Since there's never been an episode where Gabi babysits Elmo (though * could...

    TMS outline- David Ogden Stiers

    LOl, that was great; the few times I've had time to read I've loved your ideas. I thought maybe S&W might accuse Dr. Bob of steaaling their lines when he jokes about "neither one should see the light of day, - I don't recall enough of the Muppet Show to know, though, maybe Rowlf did those jokes...
