    A Very Muppet Christmas/Credits

    I had videotaped A Very Muppet Christmas last year,while it aired for the very first time.While rewatching it again this week,I noticed that Frank Oz was missing from the credits.Did he not take part in this special?Fozzie Bear and Miss Piggy did sound like Frank Oz.Does anyone know for sure...

    Miss Piggy the Brunette

    A couple of years ago,I recall seeing a bit of a videotaped TV show,where Miss Piggy had long dark blackish hair.I don,t know what the show was,but she appeared to be helping a woman with a cooking demonstration.Miss Piggy had had a lot of different looks over the years.From her trademark long...

    Muppet Christmas Special from 1977

    I believe there had been a Muppet Show Christmas special scheduled to air during December 1977,during The Muppet Show,s second season.But I never got to see it,for two reasons.First reason,A Flintstone Christmas was scheduled to air that same night,at the same time.I was so excited by that,I had...

    Brownstone buildings

    Whoever designed the Sesame Street studio set,did a marvelous job of imatating New York City,s many brownstone buildings.[Though I suppose it wouldn,t have been too hard to do,seeing as Sesame Street is made in New York City.]Back in late October of 1992,I stayed at a hotel in Manhatten for...

    The Ed Sullivan Show

    During the 1960s the muppets were commonly seen on The Ed Sullivan Show.There would be a skit from one or two or more muppet characters included on the show.I recall two of them involving Kermit.One had Kermit sitting on a lillipad,gobbling up tiny muppet creatures.At the end of the skit,Kermit...

    The set of Sesame Street

    I used to wonder what was across the road from the general Sesame Street niehgborhood scape.[In real life of course,it would nothing more than studio tv cameras and such.]When viewing Sesame Street Presents Follow That Bird,I got my wish.There you saw all kinds of small shops situated directly...

    The Muppet Theatre

    The Happiness Hotel,where most of the muppets stayed in The Great Muppet Caper,bore quite a resemblance to The Muppet Show,s muppet theatre.It was probably the same studio set.After all,The Muppet Show and The Great Muppet Caper were both made in England.The Muppet Theatre also appeared in last...

    Mona Lisa

    Believe it or not,the very first time I saw the Mona Lisa was on Sesame Street.This world famous portrait appeared in a cartoon segment,where a cartoon painter[maybe Leonardo Da Vinci in cartoon form]says'P,Painting'.The Mona Lisa herself is suddenly brought to life,when she snatches the...

    Things you can't do in real life

    A lot of the things the characters did,I used to wish I could do.Such as musical numbers.The way a person or muppet could sing a song,and automatically have invisible music to go with their song.That looked like fun.Another thing was how you sometimes saw characters move around in super fast...

    Ernie & Bert

    Ernie and Bert may be the best of friends to this day,but did anybody ever feel sorry for Bert at times?Like the time the two of them went to bed for the night,and the bathroom faucet was dripping.Bert couldn,t sleep with the sound of the water dripping from the faucet,so Ernie kindly did...

    Kermit The Frog

    I used to find it interesting how Kermit The Frog was the only muppet character to be a regular cast member of both Sesame Street and The Muppet Show.Any other muppet character,it seemed,was either a regular on Sesame Street or The Muppet Show or Fraggle Rock.I understand better now...

    A TMS script I took literally

    Once when viewing The Muppet Show episodes back to back in syndication,at the age of 12,I recall a comment Carol Burnett made on her episode,which I took literally.I don,t remember ecxactly what it was she said,but it was some kind of wisecrack about Julie Andrews,when she had guest starred on...

    TV Specials in the past

    I remember during the summer of 79,shortly after the release of The Muppet Movie,there was a tv special that aired one evening,in celebration of the movie.I can,t quite remember the whole thing,but it appeared to be a major event videotaped live somewhere.With a whole bunch of guest...

    Muppet sound alikes

    Ever notice how some muppet character voices tend to sound simular.For instance,Miss Piggy sometimes sounds like Grover Monster.That,s of course because Frank Oz regularly operated both characters.Just as Kermit and Ernie both have very simular voices.Both characters were originally opereated by...
