    Ask Florence Henderson

    On Florence Henderson's official web site, there is a section where you can ask Florence any question you like, so I decided to ask her some questions about her TMS appearance, and I've only just received the answers, so I thought I'd share them with you. Q: How were you approached to do in...

    Oscars & Jerry Juhl

    Is it just me or was anyone else disappointed that Jerry Juhl was omitted from the In Memoriam section of the Oscars? While he is mostly remembered for his TV work, he did co-write the screenplays for the various Muppet Movies and should have been recognaised as such.

    Le Muppet Show

In case you haven't listened to them - all of the episodes are dubbed in French but on occasion they...

    A Christmas Together - CD version

    I'm thinking of buying this off Amazon but according to some of the reviews, the CD version is an edited version of the original vinly release in that some songs have been cut. Is this right, only one reviewer said that her copy has all the tracks and is not edited; Amazon only lists 10 songs.

    TMS Recording Order

    I've been attempting to put together the original recording order of all 120 episodes of TMS. Don't know how accurate I am, and I reckon I could be wrong with one or two episodes but here we go, for starters, with the first Season. Connie Stevens (Jan. 19 – 21, 30; Feb. 1, 1976) Juliet...

    "Is Conversation a Dying Art?"

    This could be mere coincidence but... In the Harvery Korman episode of TMS, the panel discuss about life, and at the end Kermit says that they will discuss the topic "Is Conversation a Dying Art?". This topic was raised in the Rita Moreno show, however... The Kermitage and the episode...
