Last night I dreamt that one of the two Toughpigs webmasters put out a special book on Jim Henson, done in response to a book or article that was very wrong (with portions of that book reprinted in this book), which had physical copies of various articles from Tough Pigs, The Muppet Mindset, and...

Many segments about family tend to be about their similarities, or show same and different. Most established characters have family that looks like them in a costume. Normally when we meet a female relative of a male character, it looks like them in drag, but we don't get many male relatives of...

I thought I did bring them up (mentioning the facts on the PVC cards being the same as on the beans tags). There was a commercial for the beans that aired a lot (too bad it;s not on YouTube, at least since the last I searched), with Elmo, Herry, and a Honker. I was excited to see Herry in the...

Episode 657 is themed around scariness, the Wicked Witch episode is episode 847... Must be something about episode numbers ending with the number 7. One of my first thoughts: If they were to do a DVD themed around classic scary moments, episodes 657 and 847 would be great ones to include.

One of my new favorite classic songs (meaning I hadn't really heard it until recently) is "A Sibling" from the episode where Jeff Goldblum plays Bob's brother Minneapolis. But I'm noticing something odd about Minneapolis' parts that I can't quite pinpoint. Is he singing bad? I don't think...

I suspected Big Bob was Guy Smiley, it's always good to see confirmation on something I suspected. I wasn't expecting Billy Monster to be Grover (my guess was Scudge, who is used as his mother). Of course I was certain that the Billy Monster in this was not the same monster who was named...

Not a guide with pictures from every segment, but the wiki now has images from the first Answer Lady segment (in episode 112). Clicking on the picture, there's only one episode listed under "what links here", so I don't know if they just wanted to put the picture there before the rest of the...

Amazon lists the DVD release run time as 75 minutes. So either that's incorrect, or it will have some sort of bonus features. Or maybe the DVD will be expanded. Great to finally see some footage.... and yet no clips in the promo, just new footage.

I wish I'd remembered that one. I feel this is the kind of thing I would remember if I saw it, and I basically watched Nickelodeon all the time back then. I don't remember too many Muppet Show promos on the channel. Of course I have seen one on YouTube (not the one mentioned in this thread) that...

I doubt the episodes are provided chronologically. Not sure if they're being provided at random or if they're able to request specific episodes for the guides. I know Scott did say elsewhere that he thinks he'll be able to get that one before the upcoming "lost and found" event, but he's also...

I read some wiki forum discussion before reading the guide, it looked like people there said she believed. I did look at the scene description and thought it seemed like she didn't at first, though I wasn't sure. I feel like he says "I think I hear a Snuffleupagus" when he finishes the race...

Wow. I don't ever remember seeing the individually-packed releases. Thinking about how it was 13 figures, when 13 is not a multiple of three, and Snuffy's size, I started wondering if they released Snuffy as one (and as part of the set) while the rest were in three-packs. After all, his size...

Speaking of which, I always assumed that the segment with David roller skating in Central Park was taped in the late-1970s, and when I saw a version that had modern wrap-arounds presenting it as fantasy, I thought they just shot those so they could continue airing it when David looked a lot...

Some of the characters appear here: https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_0637 It's a shame they didn't air that one on Noggin (maybe the people compiling episodes weren't aware of this one - doesn't seem like one that gets remembered).

Episode 881. https://muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Episode_0881 Is this the first guide made for an episode that has all three parts of Ernie and Bert: Banana in Ear (I know, a first is cited, but that page hasn't been guided yet)? I'm so glad to finally find an episode to include all three parts...

Wait, were there individual figures as well as three-packs and the big boxed set? I'm seeing that Snuffleupagus is referred to as a bonus figure in the 13-figure set. Does that mean he was only available in that collection as opposed to separately/in a 3-pack (well, 13 is not a multiple of...

Now that the wiki has full guides to every season 10 episode (but video evidence sometimes shows inaccuracies, especially with the plot of episode 1259), we know that pretty much all of these did not make it to the show. There were eventually rocks with hands, I think they were called...

One fairly useless thing that didn't really occur to me until today: Very few of the same celebrities appear in both this set and the 40th anniversary collection. The only celebrities in both are Madeline Kahn, Patti LeBelle, and Feist - with Feist being the only one whose same segment is in...

I remember there being three-packs of these in addition to the big set. I can't remember about the big boxed set, but the three-packs had profile cards on the back with some info (I think it was all the same facts that appear on the tags for the Sesame Street Beans that were available around the...

They appeared as a couple in a few early segments (though it's hard to tell if they're supposed to be the characters or playing other characters), such as season 16's Hola and season 18's Sing Your Synonyms.
