What episodes of The Muppet Show referred to Lobbock Lou and his Jughuggers as a Jugband? I only know of two episodes where they are called a Jugband on-screen: the Steve Martin and Gene Kelly episodes. Are there any others?

Since some songs from the first season of The Muppet Show were cut on DVD, I thought I'd create some morsels for them. Here are some made-up morsels for the cut sketches from the Joel Grey episode: For the first Muppet News Flash: This is the first Muppet News Flash sketch. In...

Back in 1994, Jim Henson Video reelased Monster Laughs with Vincent Price, featuring two episodes (the oens with Vincent Price and Alice Cooper). According to the Muppet Central collectibles guide, four more videos were planned but never released. If Jim Henson Video had released more Muppet...

The other day I was thinking of an idea that Dnosaurs should have used. It would be fitting, since Dinosaurs had so many parodies on the show. You know how when the Jim Henson Productions logo was shown on the show there would be a pterodactyl by the logo? And you know how Kermit the Frog...

There have been many sources that mention certain performers either thinking that their singing voices weren't good or that the performers had terriffic singing voices. Among those known to have had good singing voices include Richard Hunt, Jerry Nelson, and Louise Gold (the Muppet Central guide...

I have noticed that while the origins of various Sesame Street characters have been mentioned in various books, interviews, and what not, there is very few sources out there that talk about the origins of Richard Hunt's characters. Has anybody ever wondered about the oriigns of Hunt's...

Has anybody ever noticed that despite the many crossovers between the Muppet Show Muppets and the Sesame Street Muppets, none of the Sesame Street human characters have ever crossed-over with the Muppets? The closest things I can think of to having Sesame Street humans in muppet productions...

Does anybody ever wonder why Jim Henson didn't direct The Muppet Movie? I thought that Jim Henson would have wanted to be a film director, yet for the Muppets big-screen debut, James Frawlry, who as far as I know had no previous experience with The Muppets, directed it. One of the muppet...

I was just looking at the page for The Muppets: A Celebration of Thirty Years at Muppet Wiki, and was looking at a picture of the logo, and I noticed that in the lower left corner, next to Ernie, there is a character with a hook-like nose, similar to Gonzo's, but Gonzo is seen on the top right...

Can anybody tell me anything about Willie Wimple? I have recently read that he was a character who was part of a series of environmental cartoons on Sesame Street. I've seen one of them, Water Pollution, but he only appears to be there at the beginning. Can anybody explain this character, or...

Often when I see or hear about a Sesame Street sketch from the 1980s where Jim Henson performs a character who co-stars with a character who was performed by somebody who joined Sesame Street in the 1980s (or even late-1970s), I often wonder how those performers felt, being able to work with the...

Kermit: Hi, ho, Kermit the Frog here, and today I am going to talk to you about annoying things. Do you know what annoying means? Well, annoying things are..... (Zoe walks by) Zoe: Hey, Kermit, do you want to see me do a ballet dance? Kermit: Uh, no, I do not want to see.... (Zoe dances...

At Muppet Wiki, there was finally some info posted about Getting Ready for School. On that page, it lists what skits are included. It lists three skits involving Anything Muppets making cheers about school. I was wonderign if this was a three-part skit or if all three parts are unconnected.

Enjoy this script. I think that this script would make a good Sesame Street video. (A title card appears. The title "Cookie Monster's Food Hotline" appears between two slices of bread, and Cookie Monster is heard, in voice-over, saying "Cookie Monster's Food Hotline". The scene then fades to...

Prairie Dawn: Hello, folks. Prairie Dawn here with todays letter of the day, the letter L. L is for... (Cookie Monster walks by) Cookie Monster: Oh, hello, Prairie. Prairie Dawn: Oh, hi, Cookie..... Cookie Monster: (sees the letter L) Oh, an L! Cowabunga! Prairie Dawn: No, Cookie...

There have been a lot of Elmo's World videos, but does anybody think it might be a good idea to release Journey to Ernie videos? Perhaps a few volumes. Maybe ther ecould be two volumes in the original format, featuring a heavy dose of classic clips, and other volumes could include three...

I noticed that the song Subway features mostly Anything Muppets, but also a few specific characters (Bert, Kermit, Betty Lou). I was thinking that this song could have had a lot of established characters instead of the various anything muppets. So who do you think should have been in this song...

I have noticed that whenever there is a large Muppet crowd scene featuring as many muppets as possible, and the Sesame Street Muppets are included, that the Sesame Street Muppets, with the obvious exception of Kermit, usually get grouped together in a small section of the crowd. Think about...

Allistar Cookie: Pip, pip, and good evening. Allistar Cookie here. Me delighted to welcome you to Monsterpiece Theater. Tonight, me present classic counting film "16 Candles". (the scene fades to a darkened room where The Count observes a candleobra) The Count: Greetings! I am The Count, and...
