    (A clip montage plays with an instrumental version of The Muppet Show theme playing, I'll list what clips appear here later). (After the clip montage, we see the Muppets gathered in a bar) Walter: Welcome everybody to the Muppets 60th anniversary. Tonight, we celebrate 60 years of the...

    Noticing new things in 30 Years special

    Recently, Gilbert Gilchrist uploaded a restored version of The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years, and as I've been watching this restored version, I'm noticing a lot of things that I hadn't noticed before. You can watch the restored version here (and you can still watch older, unrestored...

    The Opposite Song

    Lately, I've heard Lynard Skiner's "Gimme Three Steps" song, and am wondering if The Opposite Song is meant to be a parody of that song. The music sounds very similar, as does some of the melody. Heck, the singer even sounds similar to Little Chrissy. Muppet Wiki doesn't say anything about it...

    The occasional performers of season five

    During the last season of The Muppet Show, there were three Muppet performers to only perform semi-regularly, these being Karen Prell, Brian Meehl, and Betsy Baytos. Now during the first season it was common for performers to appear in only a couple of episodes, mainly female performers when a...

    Caroll Spinney on Reddit AMA 5/7

    I read on the Tough Pigs forum that Caroll Spinney will be participating in a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) on May 7, 2015. Looking at the Reddit site, it'll start at 12PM (I assume Eastern time). So if you're a member, you can ask Spinney anything, and if you're not but want to ask him...

    Saving Sesame Street

    For April Fools Day, I posted this "announcement" for the announced Sesame Street Movie. http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/april-fools-sesame-street-film-still-happening.59282/ I said that I planned to write a fan fic based on what was in that "announcement", so let's get started...

    Ruthie in Season 30

    One thing I've always found odd about season 30 is how Ruthie seems to have continued as a regular, yet she barely appeared that season. She was in the season 30 credits, there's a season 30 cast picture with her (as well as Alan, which proves it's from at least season 30), and the 40th...

    April Fools Threads 2015

    I figured I'd make a list of all the April Fools threads I could find from this year. It seems this years April Fools Day wasn't too heavy with such threads. I'm now working on Sesame DVDs: http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/im-working-on-sesame-street-dvds-now.59283/ Disney sued in...

    April Fools: I'm working on Sesame Street DVDs now!

    Ever since I joined the forum in 2005, fans have been looking at my Sesame Street DVD wish lists and, especially in recent years, have been saying that I should be in charge of Sesame Street DVDs. Well a couple of months ago, Sesame Workshop contacted me and told me they thought the same thing...

    April Fools: Sesame Street Film Still Happening!

    Well, an article at The Hollywood Reporter mentions that the Sesame Street movie announced in 2012 is still happening. Back then it was announced by 20th Century Fox while the company was still in negotiations with Sesame Workshop, which took awhile, and now a couple of drafts of the script have...

    The Muppets New Theater

    This idea is inspired by an idea I recently posted about in a thread about Henson-related video games. I'm making the idea into a fan fic. But no, I'm not going to deliberately write it in a way that would be easily translatable for a video game (if it looks video game-structured, it's a...

    Timmy's Treats Hold-Up

    In The Muppets Character Encyclopedia, it is said that Timmy Monster has retired from show business and opened his own bakery, Timmy's Treats. This is a fan fic involving that place. Chapter 1 It was a typical day at Timmy's Treats. Business was typical - the place got just enough...

    Bunsen and Beaker's Rocket Adventure

    Chapter 1 "Welcome, dear readers", said Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, talking to us, "we at Muppet Labs are hard at work perfecting a new rocket ship." "Mee mee mee", said Beaker. "I know, Beaker", said Bunsen, "Anyway, we've gotten many distinguished scientists working on our new rocket, such as...

    Kermit's W vs B vs. R lectures

    It's been awhile since I last did any "vs" threads, but after recently discovering the first season segment where Kermit talks about the letter R and Cookie Monster breaks it into a P, I thought about how there were (at least) two other segments where Kermit talks about a letter which Cookie...

    Labyrinth - The Four Guards scene

    Something I've been wondering about regarding the Four Guards scene in Labyrinth is how Sarah determines which one is telling the truth. She asks one of them, "would he say that this one leads to the castle", to which the other one says yes. When the other one points out that the other one...

    Thinking about how popular Muppet productions are

    For awhile I've been thinking about how popular certain Muppet productions are, wanting to determine which ones are most popular and which are least popular. I've actually wanted to do this for awhile, I thought about making it a Muppet Mindset article but somehow I don't feel like it's "Muppet...

    Sully After Richard Hunt

    I've been thinking a lot about the use of (and lack theroff of) Sully after Richard Hunt's death. Muppet Wiki notes that David Rudman took over (citing documents from the CTW Archives), but it seems like there's only one known source for that (neither Sesame Street Unpaved or 40 Years of Life...

    Why WEREN'T there more Muppet Show on Tour?

    This is something I've been wondering about for the last few days, and I don't really expect anyone to know but maybe some do. Back in the 1980s, there were two Muppet Show on Tour shows (and a few Muppet Babies Live shows), and then they stopped. I wonder why they didn't continue with these...
