Not sure if the answer is out there but... I have heard that Dr. Seuss was initially reluctant to allow his books to be adapted into animated specials, and then about eleven Dr. Seuss specials would be produced. Anybody know if he chose what books would be adapted or if the studios wanted to...

We've noted many times that Jim Henson was rarely in street scenes, but it seems like quite a few of those rare instances were when it would have been more of an emergency. Jim Henson filled in for Caroll as Oscar once in the first season, and I found that he also voiced Big Bird in one song...

That short scene with Ernie at the end of that special Put Down the Duckie has been seen in some documentaries (I think it's in The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson), I wondered where it came from (and was sure that it wasn't for the planned behind the scenes documentary). I don't quite get why...

Raw footage of some of the celebrity verses from Put Down the Duckie.

I recently heard that the song is titled "Holla Back Girls". All this time I thought Gwen Stefani was saying "we ain't no Harlem phat girls".

There's a meme that shows two images of Donald Duck in bed, one has him looking grumpy and clearly just awoken, the other has him go back to bed. What short did these come from?

if Disney waited five years to start work on The Rescuers Down Under, it most likely would have been a made for video sequel.

The Rescuers was the first Disney animated film to get a sequel. Has it ever been said why The Rescuers was the first to get a sequel? Was the film really popular when The Rescuers Down Under came out? I don't remember knowing about the first film when I saw it (and in fact I don't remember...

I have caught an episode or two. I saw an episode with King Friday, and I was confused at first. I noticed he looked similar, and then I heard them refer to him by name. I decided to look this up and actually had a little trouble finding info on the show. I had watched Mister Rogers...

Was it really a multi-camera show? I feel like most of the episodes I have seen do it all in one take. And while Jim did not direct The Muppet Show, he did direct some things before that (even if it wasn’t Sam and Friends).

I’ve been having some of the tunes from National Lampoon’s Vacation in my head. Such as Little Boy Sweet, which has replaced I’m So Excited in modern broadcasts and releases. Tell me, did the song appear somewhere in the original release? I recently watched the movie and saw it listed in the...

A ton of episodes did not make the cut to HBO Max, not just the truly lost episodes.

Of course that's the list.

Muppet Wiki has a list on their HBO Max page. Unfortunately, halfway through last year, the majority of classic episodes were taken off the site. The service now only has episodes from seasons 1, 5, and 7 (and 39-up).

Seems like the majority of the book borrows from the show (or maybe many of the jokes are just old standards). Most of Fozzie's jokes had been done on the show, the Veterinarian's Hospital sketch looks like an adaptation of the Cow sketch from the Dom DeLuise episode (without the "we want...

It's still there. It won't play embedded here, but if you click on the link it'll play.

Recently I saw The Pee-wee Herman Show (the original, not the Broadway revival) for the first time, and noticed the credited said "written by the cast" (and then it adds one name I forget, I guess a writer who wasn't a performer). I'm guessing the cast mainly wrote their own segments (with...

I thought this rule started in 1996 or 1997 (when CBS notably only accepted educational programming for Saturday mornings and canceled everything on its saturday morning line-up except for Beakman's World). Then recently The Nostalgia Critic did a video on Garfield and Friends, and he said that...
