I, for one, did not see this coming, but here's an interestingly positive ToughPigs review from Ryan Roe. I should say I blew off quite a bit of steam in my last post, and despite that it probably sounded like I hated it, I can't really say I do or think it's the worst Muppet thing ever. I...

Sounds interesting, though I'm a little befuddled as to why they're still collaborating with WWE. Not angry or offended at all, just strikes me as odd. [Insert obligatory flanderized-Piggy rant here.]

I'd say they just quickly filmed it before he suited up for the Bird and before the parade began.

Probably a little too late for me to review this, and in spite of having yet to see the special in full, I still feel like I can unashamedly give my upfront opinion on it ...in short, I didn't really like it. In long, there's sadly worse I can say about this than there is good. I watched most of...

Ah, gotchya ;) I don't have a Facebook, so I'm not up-to-date with all that.

The Sesame Street performance was better than I was expecting, and I'm really diggin' those cool Vine videos! Elmo had just the right enthusiasm during the parade from what I could see. Also, Matt Vogel's quite clearly performing the Count here, so I don't know why people are assuming Peter Linz...

It's turning out to be a pretty Muppety holiday season this year. In addition to the new Lady Gaga holiday special airing on ABC, Turner Classic Movies will telecast The Muppets Take Manhattan on Thanksgiving Day from 6-8pm. I'm not entirely sure, but this will probably be the first time TCM has...

I don’t know if it’s a sign of the times and there are already too many of these concert specials (and movies), but yeah, I see your side of it. More to the point, I couldn’t care less about One Direction, so, at the very least, I won’t be watching any of this unless a YouTube user decides to...

Definitely an improvement over the U.S. poster. Even if it does use some pre-existing photos of the characters, they're good choices. Kermit looks a lil' weird though (Anyone wanna fix his eye focus?).

I can't remember where I first heard that song, but I find myself subconsciously crooning the chorus every now and again; and I don't even listen to pop music! What's wrong with me? :crazy:

Also, this is a sidebar, but Elmo’s performance is really meh here. It looks like Ryan Dillon toned down his Elmo a bit (which, in principle, seems appropriate) and is trying to do something other than copy Kevin. On one hand, his interactions with Mackelmore is kind of funny, and on the other...

Yesterday, Billboard posted a video featuring recent guest appearances by music artists Ed Sheeran and Macklemore on Sesame Street; our first real look at what Season 45 is going to offer. (By the way, I do realize there are other threads related to this topic, but I'm creating this mostly to...

Don't mean to be rude or anything MuseumMan, but is there any particular reason why you feel it's necessary to recap repeated episodes?

Definitely agree. This looks like it's going to one up the last movie in a lot of ways. For one, while the humans are billed as the stars on many promotional materials, at least in these trailers, they come off as sidekicks in the classic Muppet tradition, and good ones at that. The trailers...

Well, with the Muppets Most Wanted trailers having been released just today, hopefully that will compensate for the (so far) lack of promotion for this.

Consider me in the camp of people who are sick of seeing that particular Kermit poser (I blame ToughPigs). At least now that we have a character who actually looks like that, I can look forward to continually refer to him as "good ol' Constantine" rather than complaining.

Well, there's good news and some marginally bad news. I checked the Muppet Wiki page recently and while I could find no other source for this, it's said that the book will feature "more than 600 full-color photographs from the Henson Archives." With Shemin writing the book, it's great to see...

:insatiable: Definitely agree with consensus; some really great moments in this. First, I applaud the designers for this hilarious Muppet-y caricature: Another thing I also really liked about this sketch is how well it upholds Cookie's "monster" appetite; as much as he has to meet his quota of...

That's because she's actually a Muppet :p As much as it's wrong to judge an entire special on one (lukewarm, though surreal) video clip, I'd be lying if I didn't say that this degraded my enthusiasm a bit. Like Oscarfan said, it's shot like a bleached looking reality show (although...

I DVD-R'd the appearance, so I guess I'll be the first to transcribe it. **SPOILERS** Kermit appears to present a birthday gift to Whoopi. Enfolded in the "special teal-colored" box that Kermit refers to is something she doesn't have, but has always wanted. When the box is lifted, Pepe...
