    Is It Possible To Date/Marry A Non Muppet Fan?

    I really don't like using the word "ex'es" myself...heck I'm not even clear what is considered boyfriend-girlfriend/official relationship situations versus fling/dating/"seeing"/etc. Well the Muppets transcend national boundary, as evidenced in The World According to Sesame Street and When...

    AMAZING! Love the cover, just love the whole premise. Hopefully a lot of people see at least the cover:3

    Jason Segal, Muppet cameos AND Florence and the Machine?(one of the most amazing female fronted bands out there) Oh man, so cannot wait.

    Is the Jim Henson Company involved at all in the new movie?

    So if JHC has "no involvement"...um, where did they film the Muppet Studios? As that sure awfully looks like JHC studios.

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    Anyone have a pic of the Pepe plush? It's curious how that sold out...but Kermit, Piggy, etc didnt. Get the message yet Disney? People overall want Muppet merch, but I have come to the conclusion that Disney probably won't be obliging much. Btw anyone know when the Star Wars figures come out?

    Disney Store Muppet Merchandise Released

    I think I just got smacked in the face by a giant tumbleweed.

    Bringing you the Truth...

    As a longtime 9/11 truther, anti war activist, and critic of American and Western foreign policy(as well as corporate corruption, and generally anti nwo) it's good to see others who get it. I just kind of stopped following politics, and rarely even engage in talking about this sort of stuff with...

    The Muppets cover Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and Cee-Lo Green's 'Forget About You"

    I was a talking heads fan when I was a kid in the 80's, tho admittedly I was already 18 when Muppets Tonight first aired. They also spoofed Devo, Nine Inch Nails, Sex Pistols, etc on that show. Not to mention the REM/Sesame Monsters duo. Heck I think House of Mouse in the 90's even spoofed...

    Report: 2 Years Should Be Playing Instead of TV Viewing

    Just as it's been widely known that parents shouldn't be stuffing their Walmart carts full of high fructose corn fast food garbage and sodas to feed their kids every day, new reports strong suggest young toddlers and babies should be playing and have their imagination fostered...not sat in front...

    Question about the Muppets Inside CD-Rom

    Best Muppet video game ever! I had no computer in 1996, but in the early 2000's I tracked down a new boxed version on ebay and got it to run on my windows xp at the time. AMAZING box, amazing book that comes with it. Amazing game. To me 1995-1999 is a very special time for me as a Muppet fan...

    When will toys tieing in to The Muppets be released?

    Well James is right, those Muppet puppets are pretty cool. It's just Disney is the king of merch saturation so it's weird we aren't seeing anything yet. I have a feeling most the merch will be exclusive to Disney parks, and that's a shame. Anyone know when the Star Wars spoof figures come out...

    Rokko Muppet

    I just wish Jermaine could have a cameo. I loved him in Eagle vs Shark, Gentlemen Broncos and of course as one half of the FOTC act.

    The Bible and Love and Christians

    Finally people on MSNBC are growing a pair and getting angry, calling both dems and repubs useless and what a scam the whole financial system is

    Unofficial Picture Thread!

    Oh I have no shame. I perform in a band, want to do standup, loving creating crazy outfits and vintage shopping. Here's candid, me at a dance club last weekend...Im actually totally sober here

    Rokko Muppet

    Ha, I wonder what other cast people got Muppets in their likeness. I always get a kick out of seeing Muppet likenesses of celebrities or crew on Sesame, Muppets, etc. (Loved the Muppets Take Over Today sketches) It's too bad Fiama and Sal couldn't be in the new film.

    When will toys tieing in to The Muppets be released?

    Yeah the 2002-2004 period for TMS/Fraggle merch was amazing, just like 1999-2001 for Bear merch. I don't buy the notion we should be happy with no merchandise. A lot of people probably don't even realize there's even a new Muppet movie coming out. Maybe because I don't have tv, but you go to...

    When will toys tieing in to The Muppets be released?

    Have to disagree with you there. That is nothing in my book. This is a Disney tentpoll film, it deserves to have the deluge of merch we come to expect: plushes, toys, you name it. It's like oh boy, a few cheap keychains at walmart, vinylmations which have already been out, and some kids...

    "The Muppets" Second Official Movie Trailer

    Ha, ok yeah youre right TMM had some bizarre moments. But then you have the realism of even the church scenes. TMTM was definitely more rooted in muted reality, which I like. Man even in the 90's I HATED the classic retelling stuff.

    "The Muppets" Second Official Movie Trailer

    Simply commenting on the tone of the two trailers. It doesn't look at all like a classic Muppet film, which isn't bad. Super 8 tried to ape the old Spielberg feel and to me failed in the overall execution.
