    The Muppets Ad Libbing?

    Hey guys, I do improv comedy and I want to show my troupe some clips where the Muppets seem to be ad libbing in order to cover a goof. Here are some things that pop to mind: Gonzo's character-defining "Nice legs, though!" Rowlf and Fozzie: "Can you play hatless?" "I don't know. Who...

    Who did this voice? (in Muppets from Space)

    When the spaceship lands, there's an Alien Gonzo in a mask, who tells Gonzo to step into the light. Who does that voice? It's electronically altered, so it's hard to say, but to me it *almost* sounds like Jeffrey Tambor, which would be a cool 'extra' role for him. Probably Bill Barretta...

    Muppet*Vision 3-D set of five vinyl figures (Parks-only)

    Hi folks, This was a new one on me, but it popped up on eBay for only $10, so I put in the only bid and won it. Not to be confused with the Vinylmation line, these are regular Muppet likenesses. The five non-articulated characters are: Kermit in a director's chair, atop a stack of film...

    Dark Crystal prototype action figures

    Hey folks, I just saw this thread over at Rebelscum.com, which is primarily for Star Wars collectors, but has an 'other' section. http://threads.rebelscum.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=4464252&Main=4464252#Post4464252 The guy is selling his prototypes of the Garthim, Landstrider, and...

    Rowlf in outtakes from the Julie Andrews variety show

    I was watching some blooper compilations today, and stumbled across one by Rowlf among some outtakes from the Julie Andrews variety show... I want to post the link to it, since the Rowlf glitch itself is kid-friendly (the edge of the puppet is caught up too high, revealing the shirt of Frank...

    OFF-TOPIC: Help! I need the Cowboy who Rides an Ostrich!

    Hey gang, This isn't Muppet merchandise, but I have exhausted all my other options, so I thought I'd see if anyone here could help me out. In addition to the Muppets, I am also a huge fan of the classic Rankin-Bass "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and have been collecting the action figures...

    Muppet Whatnot Marriage Proposal Trailer

    I just read about this in the ToughPigs forums and thought it was endearing. Searched here but didn't see an existing thread, and am not entirely sure where it should be categorized. Mods, feel free to move or combine... So a guy named Sid Ceaser (really) wanted to finally make it official...

    WANTED: Brian Henson intros

    I didn't realize there were more BH introductory spots than the ones included on my Time-Life DVD's. Does anyone know a source for these? *** GENERIC INTRO: MOCK SWEDISH (Connie Stevens, Ethel Merman, Dizzy Gillespie) GENERIC INTRO: SEX AND VIOLENCE (Ruth Buzzi, Kaye Ballard)...

    Glenda Jackson 'cold open' Ep. 507

    I hate to admit it, but I was reading something last night about a particular episode of TMS from Season 5, and had absolutely zero recollection of seeing that show back in the day... the episode where Glenda Jackson and her crew shanghai the Theatre and take it out to sea as a pirate ship...

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    Hi ho! I am trying to think of any time that Jim-as-Kermit says the name "Jim Henson". No slight against Steve-as-Kermit, but I've got an idea for some audio I'd someday like to edit together, and so it really needs to match when spliced in with other Jim-as-Kermit soundbytes. I found...

    Passing the Torch? Or warping young minds?

    My son is eight, and we've never had cable TV his entire life. All he knows is stuff on DVD. Tonight, I realized just how much of my obsession he's absorbed by osmosis. He was playing with a Muppet Show Colorforms set, and knew the names of 11 out of 17 characters pictured. Then when I...

    Sesame Street Dreams of Dancing - USJ

    Feel free to move this if I've put it in the wrong place... Thought this was fairly bizarre: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_P_uw-YXUI&NR=1 I had no idea the Sesame characters appeared at Universal Studios Japan! And they're not singing educational songs, either! Alex

    WANT TO BUY - Muppet Show Comic 8

    Hey folks! My Books-A-Million has the MOST sporadic schedule of comic books. Sometimes they sit there for two months, and sometimes I can check back in two weeks and I find an issue that's two behind the last one I bought. They've done it to me again! I bought issue 9 today, but never saw...

    Dearth/Alex's Custom Muppet Commissions

    Hey folks, I'm beginning a new thread to try to organize some things which are spread out across my mailbox, private messages, and other places, and I'm frankly beginning to forget what I've discussed with whom. Plus, this will be the place for new folks to contact me if they're interested...
