    Question about a particular segment???

    This one I recall from my childhood days.I remember it being a Kermit The Frog NewsFlash,with Kermit on the lookout for a merry man.However,someone told me that it was Ernie looking for a merry man,not Kermit.I guess that means it wasn't a NewsFlash.Anyway,if anyone remembers,the first muppet we...

    Muppet personalities that closely resemble animal sources

    Some of the muppet characters have personalities that are not too unlike their animal sources. Kermit is a gentle,sensitive and caring muppet.Real frogs are pleasantly harmless animals who sing beautifully at night.:) Miss Piggy's rough and tough obnoxious personality is not too much...

    Sam And Friends

    I've recently read about this show in"Jim Henson The Works".As many of you may know,this series went from 1955 until 1961,and was produced in Washington DC.Among the muppets in the show was Kermit,before he became a frog. This show came out long before I was born.I've never seen it.Do you...

    Big Bird in China or Japan?

    Which one did you like best? Big Bird in China or Big Bird In Japan? One thing I like better about China,was how Ernie,Bert and a bunch of other famous SS muppet characters actually appeared in one scene.Big Bird and Farley were the only two SS characters ever seen in Japan. :p :(

    There is a story in next week's TV Guide about Kermit's 50th birthday. :) Does anyone know if there is supposed to be a TV special about it?I didn't see any sign of one in the TV Guide itself.

    The Best of Kermit on Sesame Street

    I just recently ordered a VHS copy of this video from Amazon.Com.But when I recieved it in the mail,I played it in my VCR and near the beginning,the tape broke.So I tested other videos to see if the problem was my VCR or the tape itself.It was obviously the latter.I was ripped off.You can...

    Miss Piggy/bully or hero

    I've always found it interesting how in The Muppet Movie and the Great Muppet Caper,Miss Piggy comes out a hero with her famous karate chops.Whereas on The Muppet Show she so often came across as a bully with her chops. :mad: HIIIYYAH

    Puppet version of Kermit

    I remember as a child being given a hand puppet that somebody had made from scratch.It was supposed to be Kermit The Frog,but it looked nothing like Kermit.This puppet was a dark blueish green with a great big head made of foam,a big white head of hair on top,Kermit-like eyes made of styrofoam...

    Sweetums and other muppets his size.

    In her time,Miss Piggy has karate chopped many other muppets,and many human beings.But you never saw her karate chop Sweetums or any other muppets his size.It seems that maybe these muppets are too big for her to hit.The only muppet Sweetums' size Miss Piggy had attempted to hit was Big...

    Miss Piggy's Karate Chops

    I realise that there have been topics on this before.But one thing I find interesting,unlike on"The Muppet Show"where Miss Piggy so often used her karate for bullying,in both"The Muppet Movie"and"The Great Muppet Caper"she used it to successfully outdo the villians.In other words,in both movies...
