    Muppet Beach Party Thread

    Looks like there's not really a Muppet Beach Party thread here (based on just one page of Google results). I got the Muppet Beach Party album last April, I kept meaning to do a thread about this, and now I'm finally doing it.... When we only have a few days of Summer left. I know the...

    Kermit Counts See and Say

    I was thinking about the Kermit Counts See 'n Say, and I was wondering, are those the actual Muppet performers voices or sound-alikes? Listening to this video, they kind of sound like the performers and kind of sound different, but that could be due to the sound quality. It came out in 1990...

    Dinosaurs shorter opening

    Here is something I remember, which doesn't occur on the DVDs. I used to have them taped off TV, though I don't think I have the tapes anymore (and I forget which episodes have this). But I am remembering that sometimes, the opening would be shorter (like how The Simpson's opening is often...

    April Fools: Muppet Vision 3D remake coming to Disney Plus

    I can't believe what has been announced on The Hollywood Reporter. It gets me saying "really???" But this could be exciting. "Following the success of the recent Disney+ special Muppets Haunted Mansion, the Muppets will be starring in a brand new direct to Disney+ feature film based on...

    April Fools: Pigs in Space and Vets Hospital re-action figures coming fall

    Well, for the last few months, we have known that there will be a set of Electric Mayhem re-action figures. But now it’s been announced there will be more in Fall. A three- figure Pigs in Space and a three-figure Veterinarians Hospital. Hmm, if The Electric Mayhem series is six figures, this...

    April Fools: Season 53 to focus on an "old friends" curriculum

    It's been announced that for season 53, there'll be a curriculum of reuniting with old friends and families, with discussion on how sometimes friends drift apart and can't be around as much as before. As part of this curriculum, the season will include return guest appearances by Gordon...

    The water from the pipes

    So in the third episode, it's established that the Fraggle Pond gets its water from the pipes when the Pipe Bangers bang on the pipes, which comes because Doc hears noise in the pipes and has to turn it on. So I wonder how they got the water both before Doc moved and after. I often feel like...

    Baldness on Red Fraggle

    This may sound weird but.... Anybody ever notice that, while Red Fraggle has two pigtails, the surface of her head is otherwise bald? Seems like normally the only hair she has is in her pigtails, with no hair surrounding the very top of her head. I wonder if this would qualify as a puppet...

    Is Muppet Labs a realistic variety show act?

    This thought recently got into my mind. Is Muppet Labs a realistic kind of sketch for a variety show? sure, they are comedy sketches, but in the universe of the show, the various mishaps are not intentional. I guess it’s two scientists showing off a talent - showing how their inventions work...

    Why do Kermit and Fozzie move in the opening?

    In The Muppet Show opening, when the title logo lowers, does anybody know why Kermit and Fozzie move from where they are? They are the only ones who move out of the way (I would think Miss Piggy would be more likely to move away than Fozzie would).

    Sesame Street Live: Big Bird's Sesame Street Story

    Well, I learned that a recording of the entirety of the Sesame Street Live show Big Bird's Sesame Street Story is now online. Of course the audio quality makes it sound like something is popping. Sesame Street Live: Big Bird’s Sesame Street Story (Full Show) - YouTube Starting this as a...

    Let's Make a Dream

    Recently I've been listening to Joe Raposo's song "Let's Make a Dream". He wrote it and recorded vocals in 1988, but the song did not get released to the public until 1992, when it was included on the album We are All Earthlings. I feel that's a bit of an odd choice, I feel Sing: The Songs of...

    April Fools: Disney buys Sony (and especially Sony-owned Muppet films)

    Well, I guess soon people will stop asking "why doesn't Disney+ carry MTM and MFS?" Or they'll have a more legitimate reason to ask the longer they wait to do so. It's been announced that Disney has bought Sony, which means they own the rights to The Muppets Take Manhattan, Muppets from...

    April Fools: Muppet Treasure Island 25th anniversary line coming

    April Fools: I saw Dinosaurs Pogs at the store

    This morning I went to Target and saw official Dinosaurs Pogs. How odd. Pogs hadn't been popular since 1996, though I have seen new Pogs at Target in the last few years. A list inside a mini-catalogue mentions who all is included. There's Pogs for all the main characters, plus one for every...

    There's a new report that the 1990 video game Muppet Adventures: Chaos at the Carnival is going to be rereleased on Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, and XBOX One this Summer. Much like DuckTales Remastered and Aladdin/The Lion King Remastered, this special remastered edition will be remastered in...

    Tee Collins X-Xylophone segment

    Looking at the Muppet Wiki page on Tee Collins, the main body of the article mentions an "X-xylophone" segment he did, with a quote saying "it was hard coming up with a happy word for the letter X" (and now the link it's sourced from no longer works). But then there's a gallery of his segments...

    Top ten segments from each season

    I don’t recall if I’ve done this before, but I’d like to list my top ten favorite segments, at least for now, and in no particular order, from each season. And to be honest, I am not sure whether I’ll list every season (I haven’t seen a whole lot from the last few seasons). But we’ll see how far...

    Did they design one-shot Anything Muppets?

    Don't know how likely people would know the answer, but did the puppet designers actually design Anything Muppet characters who were intended to only appear in one sketch or street story? Seems like they wouldn't need the design much, just take the puppet base and put on clothing and facial...
