    Little things we've noticed

    in most YouTube videos I have made, I sit the camera down on something, and while there’s usually not a camera person, in quite a few instances I see that the camera was involuntarily moving (even if I place it on a tripod or flat enough surface). I guess it might be how it’s built or placed.

    Little things we've noticed

    At the end of Follow That Bird, we see a few Muppets excited about Big Bird going home, they look out the windows and act excited. And most of those characters are Anything Muppets or monsters. We see Prairie Dawn, a boy who kind of looks like Roosevelt Franklin (and the wiki does list him as...

    Why aren't Oscar and Telly ever on anymore?

    Yeah, I didn’t realize Elmo spoke in that scene until somebody brought it up on the forum (and that Richard Hunt performed him). Several characters are talking, and he’s shaking his head in a way that makes it look like he’s not talking. Sometime recently, somebody on Facebook said they...

    Muppet Show skit on Saturday Night Live on May 15, 2021

    Watching the beginning again, I now see that the third Disney Plus program is a joke, but I also noticed before that, the audience starts chuckling at Falcon and the Winter Soldier, I checked to make sure that's a real show and not a joke (and if it was a joke, I'm not familiar with those...

    The "You know what?" thread

    Some more about Taxi and Latka’s split personality: in the episode Mr. Personalities, it’s established that Latka has multiple personalities beyond himself and Vic Ferrari. And I think there’s another episode where he appears as Vic, and Elaine says something like “I don’t mind Latka’s split...

    Wow, the could have made it a multi-part documentary series.

    Little things we've noticed

    In season 31 or 32, it seems like they started to make an attempt to make Ernie and Telly a duo. There's the imaginary t party segment, and Ernie doing his A poetry, and I think another segment. And then they stopped. I wonder what happened. Did they think the two didn't have the right...

    Can you imagine if the Rockheads were still a part of the show when Rocko was introduced? hmm, refresh my memory, did the early proto-Elmo appear in a scene with a rock head? I’m thinking Richard Hunt’s Elmo. I guess I could look at the guides again.

    Muppet Show skit on Saturday Night Live on May 15, 2021

    Somebody on Facebook thought that the inclusion of Lily Tomlin was meant to be a reference to the fact that the Muppets were on Saturday Night Live, but I’m not really getting that as a reference. Of course there are many celebrities who could have been featured as the guest star (would have...

    Old Nickelodeon

    One thing that's been on my mind, which I couldn't decide whether to bring up here or in the Nick at Nite thread I started long ago (and I couldn't decide if this is worth bumping a thread that's been inactive since 2018), but from 1988-1992, Nick at Nite aired Looney Tunes, and for a brief...

    The "You know what?" thread

    For a period on Taxi, Latka had multiple personalities (most notably Vic Ferrari). It seems like the kind of thing Andy Kaufman would want to do, but I also know that he disliked working on the show, and I have not seen anything to indicate that he or his writer contributed ideas for Latka...

    Little things we've noticed

    I used to think that the Wonderful World of T-shirts sketch (or, as it seems it was titled in the scripts, "Frog to Forg") was made in the late-1970s, my guess was season 9, so I was surprised that it debuted in season 12 (though it's possible it was held over from season 11). But considering...

    New Sesame Street documentary based on "Street Gang" to premiere in April 2021

    I also don't always see the new DVD releases I want in stores when they come out, which has occurred with certain Sesame Street releases as well as a lot of DVD or Blu-ray releases that are not releases of recent mainstream films. I know, I could order it, but I don't really order online often...

    New Sesame Street documentary based on "Street Gang" to premiere in April 2021

    I see that it can be rented on iTunes for 19.99 (I figured it’d be on iTunes but recently started being unsure). As soon as I get an iTunes gift card with enough money I’ll rent it.

    Muppets Haunted Mansion special coming to Disney+ on Friday October 8, 2021

    I think it's weird that Gonzo is the one challenged as opposed to somebody who might be more likely to be scared, like Kermit or Fozzie or Scooter. I feel Gonzo would thoroughly enjoy it.

    Little things we've noticed

    Ignoring the Moo Wave name, would How Now Brown and the Moo Wave be required to only sing New Wave music, as opposed to branching out into other music styles (maybe make How Now Brown a solo singer if needed)? How Now Brown looks like he could have done punk music or Billy Idol parodies.

    Little things we've noticed

    Weren't there still plenty of MTV new wave rock videos, regardless of how many different ways they were? Maybe they could have done some more direct parodies of specific New Wave songs. Even though more direct song parodies were usually done by Muppet parodies of the actual singers (though...

    Little things we've noticed

    I have recently been wondering if How Now Brown could have easily been replaced by Little Chrissy. Both characters sing rock and roll songs and both were voiced by Christopher Cerf. How Now Brown only did two songs, both from the same year, and both of which ran until the 1990s, so it's not like...
