Livening up this old discussion...
Mokey HAS a boyfriend named Garloo. He's a ventriloquist dummy. She mentions him in Fraggles Look For Jobs.
And yep, Cantus was in the animated series. He was horrible. Horribly drawn, and his voice sounds like some punk did him.
Yes, but in that episode she wore a blue sweater underneath. :D
Boober's hat and scarf are probably luck bringers. And who says that he's wearing less than the others? He has TWO pieces of clothing. Wembley only wears one banana tree shirt...
Other pairs of characters that never worked together much...
- Red and Wembley. They shared the episode "Believe It Or Not" but that was about the only time they carried an adventure.
- Cotterpin and Mokey. Probably because of them both being performed by Kathy Mullen. Cotterpin did have...
I think he was just jamming on the piano while singing in a goofy voice.
You gotta love that guy. Such a funny moment... I guess he was singing that behind the scenes and someone said "this is brilliant, can you do that on the show too?"
Lucy In The Sky exists - it was mentioned in one of the quizzes in the Unpaved book.
Someone told me (I think it was Splurge!) that the Yellow Submarine song was preceeded by Bob dressing up three Anything Muppets as, I believe, a driver, a train engineer and an airline pilot. Or something...
I saw a bunch of episodes in the Museum of Television and Radio in New York, and the characters really aren't characters with personalities... Most of the times, Kermit's the main character, Yorick likes to eat things and Harry's a hipster. But mostly the puppets got used for any possible role...
Madeline sang "I'll never forget your feet" while the Mutations (dressed as sheiks) danced, tossed her around, and demonstrated their feetwork.
They also danced in the background with Sandy Duncan ("Nice Girl Like Me") and Julie Andrews ("I Whistle A Happy Tune"), plus they helped Doug...
It's the episode where an outbreak of "Cluckitis" goes around the Muppet Theatre - which causes various Muppets to sneeze and turn into a chicken. Kermit desperately tries to keep it a secret for Roger, but it gets harder and harder as everyone turns into chickens - even Kermit.
Various...
I have almost all the episodes of Secret Life. I actually really like it... it almost has that warmth from Fraggle Rock.
There were six main characters: Balthazar, the old and wise teddy bear. Rugby Tiger. Mew, the little cat toy. Raisin, the tomboy doll (in my opinion Louise Gold's best...
Not really a reuse, but in the Phyllis George episode Rowlf did a new version of "You and I and George", which he sang in the UK spot from the Juliet Prowse episode.
Indeed, 't was an episode devoted to Robin Hood.
Lynn played Maid Marian. Kermit was Robin Hood, with Fozzie as Little John by his side, Scooter as Alan A'Dale narrating the story with his lute and staging the show, and a whole bunch of other Whatnots as Merry Men.
Gonzo played the Sherriff...
The Fraggle books are probably some of my favorite Muppet books. I found a whole batch of them in a second hand bookstore - which is quite the thing for someone who lives in Holland! Those books are rare here, especially in English.
Wembley Fraggle Gets the Story is one of my favorites. My...
There was actual pollution in both the Gorgs' and the Fraggles' water supplies in "River Of Life", which caused throat rot among the Fraggles and ankle rot among the Gorgs.
Gorg Who Would Be King is a must-see. It's the first episode in the "Final Episodes Trilogy".
My other personal favorites in that list are Boober Rock (which is a very funny episode with a cool script) and The Voice Inside (Sprocket visiting Fraggle Rock is ALWAYS cool, plus "Travellin'...
In the beginning of the series, Gobo and Boober were paired up a couple of times while picking up postcards from Outer Space...
In "Wembley and the Gorgs", Gobo accidentally broke Boober's lucky walking stick while running away from Sprocket.
In "You Can't Do That Without A Hat", Gobo...
Hey Elke, thanks for posting that! I was quite amazed when I was told my photo was there with the Dutch celebrities...
They even quoted me in the article: "Even more support [for Kermit] comes from an Unknown Dutchman, who 'always felt right at ease' with Kermit. "Who," says he, looking at...
Thanks for the kind wishes everyone! Byron directed me towards this discussion... I'm spendin most of my time at Tough Pigs now, but it sure means a lot to me that the people at my old Muppet residence still remember me! I'll pop up again sometime again!
It's down the stairs near the 'exit' door in the back. Pops' reception is on the right. This was seen in the Tony Randall and Wally Boag episodes of the Muppet Show.
