    Muppet Impressions

    I think Pepe is probably the most infectious Muppet voice to do. Once you get the basics down, you will find yourself using that voice to synthesize new lines, not just the ones you've heard him do before. Once you start, is really hard to stop, hokay? But Link Hogthrob and Beauregard are...

    Add Steve Whitmire to my lifelong recurring 'autograph' dream list...

    Okay, since childhood, I have had this repeated theme in my dreams, of meeting celebrities and trying to get their autographs, but not being able to. The earliest one, around 1982, was of me bumping into Harrison Ford on an elevator. He was dressed as Indiana Jones and when I asked him...

    TBOTMS vs. Season Sets

    I went through the listings for every episode on the Muppet Wiki the other day and made myself a checklist of their listed Edits. Yeah, the Elton John episode on the Season 2 boxed set mysteriously contains an additional skit... Fozzie and Rowlf's piano duet "English Country Garden", which is...

    Question about Muppet Show Preview Comic

    Didn't spot this one at first... in Sweetums' song, the word 'boogers' in the preview becomes 'yoghurt' in the paperback. DN

    TBOTMS vs. Season Sets

    I only own seven of the fifteen 'Best of' three-episode discs, and so was unaware about the different edit on the Vincent Price/Alice Cooper DVD. Needless to say, I am now looking for that disc online. What other 'Best of' episodes differ from their counterparts in the first three season...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Really? Would you believe that just yesterday I impulse-purchased Ultraman on DVD when I found it at Target for $5? I had fond but vague memories of watching it as a kid, and wanted to revisit it. How was Cookie Monster incorporated into that? DN

    Question about Muppet Show Preview Comic

    Okay, I got the Meet the Muppets trade paperback in the mail yesterday. Wow, there was a LOT missing in the preview comic. After the reprints of the first four issues of the regular BOOM! Muppet Show comic book, there's a five-paragraph introduction to the bonus material by Roger Langridge...

    Who drew the original Labyrinth movie poster?

    I'm just spitballing here... but was there a novelization for Labyrinth? If by chance they used the poster art for the cover of the novel, the name of the artist should be printed on the credits page at the front of the book. Dearth

    IAVMMCM - Thoughts?

    I only bought this movie on DVD a couple of months ago, after seeing a friend's taped-off-the-air copy. I've probably watched it a dozen times already. I've been really exploring it the last couple of days because I just found out about three Easter eggs that are on it. So yeah, I went...

    The Muppets have a table read for the new "Greatest" Muppet movie

    Okay, for the most part I am glad that things finally seem to be moving forward on a new theatrical Muppet film. But, I just want to go on record that the 'gateway drug' quip really rubs me the wrong way. Having never done drugs personally, yet carrying the pain every day of having failed to...

    Muppet DVD "Easter Eggs"

    I did some more digging online and there is a THIRD Easter Egg on the "It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" DVD. I was thinking that I was probably the last person to know about these, since I only recently bought this movie for the first time. But judging from the responses, there were...

    Muppet DVD "Easter Eggs"

    Hi ho, I was browsing Muppet websites online yesterday and came across a reference to two 'Easter eggs' on the DVD of It's A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. It didn't give specific directions on how to find them, but they weren't too hard to locate once I was looking. These are...

    Question about Muppet Show Preview Comic

    Thanks for clearing that up for me. I just ordered the paperback from eBay. Yes, in the preview, it's got the backstage story across three continuous pages with no skits interjected. DN

    Question about Muppet Show Preview Comic

    Hi all, I was hoping to get some expert advice about the Muppet Show Preview Comic. I live in a town where the only place to get comics is Books-A-Million, and that's pretty hit-and-miss. (For instance, I checked every couple of days looking for Muppet Show #4 Family Reunion, and they still...

    Together Again: A Muppet FanFiction

    I haven't gone back and read this from the beginning... I have a tendency to read things back to front (I'm left-handed). But I have to say, the scene with Jenny and Kermit taking a walk truly resonated something in me. There's a person somewhere in this world who was once very important...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Slowly trying to piece together the Sesame Street Muppets in similar scales to the Palisades Muppet Show figures: http://threads.rebelscum.com/imagepopup.php?imagename=http:%2F%2Fthreads.rebelscum.com%2Fphotogallery%2Fwatermark.php?file=154412&imagewidth=628&imageheight=523 This was a...

    Need help identifying Ernie toy/figure...

    1980 Cookie Monster by K.T.C.? Fresh from eBay to my collection, another Sesame Street figure whose origin is a mystery to me: http://threads.rebelscum.com/imagepopup.php?imagename=http:%2F%2Fthreads.rebelscum.com%2Fphotogallery%2Fwatermark.php?file=154411&imagewidth=365&imageheight=589 I...

    Rowlf editing The Muppet Weezer Video

    Nice find... wow, he really sounds like Bobo in a Rowlf suit, doesn't he? DN

    Is this the real Kermit puppet?

    The mouth, eyes and hands look slightly off to me. My gut feeling is that it is a skilled reproduction. Which reminds me... the first time I did "Little Shop of Horrors" in 1989, our puppets were the creation of a self-taught 19-year-old genius named Ryan. I think he lived in Decatur, Alabama...
