I would like to hear from those of you who with off-air episodes of TMS that have the UK left-hand credits. I'm not overly worried as to what season(s) your episodes come from, but I would like to hear from you if possible. If you could PM me or reply to this message, that will be fine. All...

Where did you guys source the taping dates for TMS as per the Muppet Central episode guide, only there are some discrepancies with your dates and those that Muppet Wiki use.

Last year I began adding the US and UK airdates for almost every TMS episode (I got halfway through Season Four). These dates have now been taken down with the main reason being along the lines that because TMS was a syndicated show the dates were "confusing" and probably didn't need to be...

If anyone has off-air copies of the Lynn Redgrave, Roger Miller and Roy Rogers & Dale Evans episodes of TMS with either of the original ITC or ATV copyright dates, could you please tell me what those dates are? It's to help me in working out a special fan order for Season Three of TMS.

By complete chance I discovered a clip on YouTube of the ITN news for 10/29/1979, the first night that programming resumed on ATV (the channel that TMS aired in the UK) and discovered that the clip had channel listings for that night. As some of you may know, the exact UK airdate of Dudley...

Someone is selling a still from the Raquel Welch ep of TMS. The still is taken from her opening number. The price is too rich for my blood but I thought someone else might be interested in adding it to their collection -...

It seems we may be wrong about Lousie Gold being uncredited for her work on Season Two of TMS. The following is a digital photo of the end credits from the Elton John episode on the recent DVD release. This is the UK left-hand credits and I wonder if she was credited on this version...

It seems strange to me that Ruth Buzzi, Harvey Korman and Rita Moreno recorded their episodes on the same three days - namely 25 - 27 May, 1976. I know that's what the Muppet Morsels say but there must be a sensible explanation for this "discrepancy".

Refresh my memory, but Loretta Lynn sang this song with dogs didn't she? Only Muppet Wiki's entry on her episode of TMS says that she sang it with pigs.

Can't remember if this is mentioned in the Muppet Morsels for the Valerie Harper ep of TMS (not mentioned in the guide on this web site) but I spotted a performer (possibly Jim Henson) during the Swedish Chef sketch. You can see the top of the performer's head and their back as well.

Does anyone know if commercial bumpers were shown during the original run in the UK? I've seen commercial bumpers for two other ITC series - The Saint and The Prisoner - and these have usually consisted of an appropriate bit of animation (the Saint logo and the Penny Farthing seen in the...

Apart from the head shot of Dave Goelz, look at the back left of the screen towards the end of the number as the glee club move off and you can see the left arm and shoulder of one of the performers. Isn't it interesting that they kept in these types of mistakes in the first season of TMS but...

Does anyone know if a soundtrack for A Muppet Family Christmas was ever released, only I've heard some of the songs on the Internet (not on MC Radio) and they are studio recordings a la the various Muppet movies and not the TV versions.

I've now watched all 24 episodes of TMS season one again and have come up with an alternate running order that I think makes the backstage plots flow better than the official order. Note this is an *alternate* order and I'm not suggesting that it should be officially adopted or anything. I...

I seem to recall a Muppet Special/Doco dating from circa the early 80's. Don't remember much except that I think the first scene had Big Bird walking into Jim Henson's office and putting his feet up on the desk. Anyone able to help me out here?

What exactly is the archive status of Sam and Friends. In other words, how many episodes still exist today? Muppet Wiki lists 15 - is that it or are there more? Also, was the show always in B/W or did it shift to colour towards the end?

In the episode guide entry for the original version of the Juliet Prowse ep. it's stated that there is a frame of Zoot and Crazy Harry in the Joel Grey episode between the shots of Rowlf playing the Piano and the Female Chorus Line. Well, I've slowed those two shots right down on my DVD copy...

In the original version of the Pilot, is there any audience laughter during the opening theme when the chorus sing the opening lines? What about during the shot of Animal playing his drums after Zoot's solo in the closing credits? Oh, and were the credits the US-centred version or the...

I managed to catch a couple of episodes of TMS over the weekend on the Disney Channel (we get it in NZ, but you have to have the NZ equivalent of cable to receive it) - Raquel Welch and James Coco - and I noticed that both episodes had the Jim Henson Company Copyright Notice at the end (the Sax...

This has been nagging at me for a while, but why does Mildred call out "Nigel!" at the end of the At the Dance sketch on the Juliet Prowse episode? Is she calling out for the House Band Conductor (Nigel) or somebody else?
