    Muppet Babies

    I really like the Muppet Babies--especially in the first few years of the cartoon--it was a highly imaginative, literate series, and at a time when the "real" Muppets weren't doing anything (because their creators were busy with other projects), Muppet Babies kept those characters in peoples...

    Why don't most people like "Muppet Treasure Island"?

    Hiya Megan, I'm in Utah too--so are "Dr. Bombay" and SuperGrover/Travis....there are more of us around than I thought, eh? Anyway, I personally loved "Muppet Treasure Island," but I also know a lot of people who didn't. Their main problems with it seem to be that the Muppets are playing...

    Announcing: "Janice: 'Fer Sure!'"

    What a completely groovy site, Byron! Things I didn't know: * that Janice only had ONE appearance in a guest star's room * that she appeared on a Swedish Chef segment * that she ever played the trombone And thanks for exposing the great "rilly"/"rully" controversy. That's been...

    Quinn and Melissa's Baby is HERE!!!!

    Thanks Bragi (and everyone else)....it's only contagious if...uh...certain things are goin' on. I was trying to get Melissa to name him "Bragi," but since I wasn't exactly sure how to pronounce it the CORRECT way, she didn't go for it. Nice try. Then I tried "Rekjavik," and she didn't go...

    Another Destitute Muppet Fan

    Sorry to hear that DW....now isn't the best time to be looking for jobs for ANYONE, but it sounds like you'll have some promising leads. Keep your chin (in my case, CHINS) up in any case--everything will work itself out. You sound optimistic, so that's good. Good luck! Quinnnnnnnnn

    Hiya TatooedMerman--you've got good taste in Muppets. And movies. And age. And uh...that's about it. Welcome to Muppet Central! Hopefully you'll end up saner than some of us... Quinnnnnnnnn

    Whatever happened to....

    That puppet turns up on eBay every once in a while...it usually goes for a pretty penny if it's in decent shape, but good luck getting one--that'd be sweet! Quinnnnnnnnnnnn

    Riddle me this?

    I *AM* in SLC....but since the Snuffleupagi are Polynesian, and they went to Hawaii once back in the 1980's, I'm pretty sure Snuffleupagus Mountain is in Hawaii. Haven't seen it for myself, haven't been there, but that's the rumor. Quinnnnnnn

    The new Muppet movie and TV series

    The only MT characters I want to see any more of are Johnny Fiama, Pepe, and possibly Sal. I found Bobo to be very unfunny. Same with Phil Van Neuter, same with Seymour... Out of Janice and Scooter, I'd rather see Janice revived. Rowlf is a must-have. I'd love to see Jerry's...

    Muppet Fossil Watch

    I don't doubt that it's a high quality product, and it'll last a long time, but it's disappointing when compared to other Fossil products. Quinnnnnnnnnn

    Muppet Christmas Carol on DVD?

    I just e-mailed Buena Vista as well, just asking them to consider releasing the two DVDs in widescreen.... I would just add that sending them RUDE e-mails/snail mails won't get us anywhere...that being polite and professional will get you a lot further than name calling. The crazier you...

    With Palisades moving offices, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a delay...oh well, maybe in a few days? Can't wait to see this thing. Quinnnnnnnnn

    200 MC Members!

    I'm trying to decide what Miles' MC nickname would be...I'm Gonzo, and sometimes we refer to Melissa as Camilla....so I'm not sure what that would make Miles. The Muppet he has the most merchandise/clothing of so far is Cookie Monster....that could be him. Right now, though, he doesn't even...

    Elmo Testifies on Capital Hill

    They just had a news blurb on the Today Show--it showed Elmo in a suit and tie testifying before a Senate Education Committee, encouraging them to appropriate more funding for music and music education. It was pretty funny. It's sad when a preschool Muppet can teach your Senate a thing or two...

    Whatever happened to....

    When Matt Robinson left the show, Roosevelt Franklin went with him--here's the entry in "Sesame Street Unpaved" about him--if you don't have this book yet, you should really look it up--it's a masterpiece! "ROOSEVELT FRANKLIN: A little purple Anything Muppet who was originated and...
