    Songs that remind you of Muppets

    The Devil in this Muppet version of Linda Ronstadt's "You're No Good" (from ep. 420: Alan Arkin) has a bit of woman-chasing Animal in him, and a voice that sounds a bit like Floyd's (both the Devil and Floyd were performed by Jerry Nelson, by the way). The Muppet Show - You're No Good -...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Has anyone ever noticed that American Dragon: Jake Long and The Life and Times of Juniper Lee are conceptually similar? In other words, you could see that the shows had rather similar storylines and structure if viewed side by side. The similarities: American Dragon ran from January 2005 -...

    Songs that remind you of Muppets

    The Troggs' "Wild Thing" reminds me of Animal; I can just imagine him singing the lead while the rest of the Electric Mayhem try to hold him back while he goes chasing a woman about the stage..... Wild Thing By Animal - YouTube Whenever I listen to Glenn Frey's "The Heat is On" from Beverly...

    Songs that remind you of Muppets

    Now that I think about it, Carly Simon's "You're So Vain" sounds like something Miss Piggy would sing about Link Hogthrob, as a counterpart to Mac Davis's "It's Hard to be Humble", which featured Link and a chorus of Muppets later on in the song.... The Muppet Show - It's Hard To Be Humble -...

    Little things we've noticed

    When Daniel comes to assist Kermit in IAVMMCM (2002), the following dialogue makes a subtle, indirect reference to the Muppet Central website: :): Hey, who are you, and why are you breathing on me? Daniel: You're alive, now I can save you! :): Yeah, well do me a favor and don't bother, nobody...

    Any Bronies on here?

    Oddly enough, I think I heard the "transforming" sound effect during the opening pre-credits sequence of Equestria Girls when Twilight was flapping her wings and Pinkie Pie rolled up into (or was it out of?) a ball.....:confused:

    Has Herry been retired?

    Matt Vogel has also done a Harvey Kneeslapper cameo in episode 4209: Harvey Kneeslapper puts a 7 on Wolgang's beach ball - YouTube which is interesting, because Frank Oz previously performed Harvey, but his laugh was too hard on Frank's vocal chords; maybe if they do decide to bring him back...

    Interesting thought on avatars

    My earlier avatars included pics of Uncle Deadly, Fozzie, Walter and a Christmas photo, then I found a funny picture of "Swedish Chef Boyardee" (a made-up internet photo, not a real product), and now I have Harvey Kneeslapper (Sesame Street's zany punster) as my avatar, especially since I spend...
