Hey everyone, Ever notice that some of Fraggle Rock's funniest moments happen when Red is about ready to fly off the handle? When I'm at work, I think of this stuff, and even though I've seen these episodes zillions of times, these moments still get me through some of the most dreary of...

Hey folks, A friend of mine and I were talking about Frank Oz today, and she said that Frank Oz has had three heart attacks, heart surgery and ulcers in the past. Is this true? We were talking about how stress affects people, and with Frank's attitude towards work and perfectionism...

Hey everyone, I just finished watching the Grover/Fat Blue sketch where they are in the "O'Brien's Fast Food Restaurant". (An obvious reference to McDonald's). But that's not the reference I'm talking about. I think Grover makes a reference to Chet O'Brien, or Mr. McIntosh in the sketch...

Hey everyone, With the Muppet figure line coming to a close, I'm thinking about making some of my own figs out of Sculpey of characters that were never made. When I'm done, I'll display 'em with the Palisades ones. I'd really like to make some Land of Gorch figures, but I was wondering if...

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows where I can find a good color photo of Lily Tomlin and Scred together from that "I Got You Babe" number...I've only seen a small black and white one, and the caricature at Tough Pigs. There USED to be a really cool Land of Gorch site with a...

Hey everyone, I was just wondering, with Disney owning the Muppets...does JHC still own the Land of Gorch characters? Since they were referred to as "Muppets", does Disney technically own them? Does SNL own them? These guys are among my most favorite of Jim Henson's creations, and I just...

Hey everyone, Here's another odd "Muppet reference" if you want to call it that. I was watching "Star Trek; Insurrection" today, and at one point in the film, Data and Picard are transporting back to the ship, Picard notices a large red spot on the side of Worf's nose. Here is the dialogue...

Hey everyone! I wanted to tell you about something pretty cool that happened to me. Recently, Bill Cosby performed where I live. Months ago, I got in line for tickets, and through pure dumb luck, I got front row seats! I could NOT believe it! My idea was to suprise my sister for her...

With many of us looking for old sketches, would it be possible to purchase a copy of them from Sesame Workshop's archives? There's two clips in particular I'm looking for that no one I've asked seems to have, and I know they'll never show on SS ever again. With Sesame Unpaved gone :sympathy...

Does anyone out there have their TMS episode of Candice Bergen handy? I have a question about it maybe someone can help me with. Remember where Candice is taking pictures of Kermit and then Sweetums arrives? Okay, I WISH I could find a screen grab of Candice and her camera from that skit...

I don't know if anyone's noticed this before, but there has been a Pigs in Space reference on "Roseanne". Now that it's Halloween time, they often show a clump of all the Halloween-themed "Roseannes" together...and that's where you'll find the following reference. I wish I knew the name of...
