    TMS fic: Growing Together

    Heh, thanks, that's something I was going for. The Muppets are used to chaos, foul-ups, SNAFUs, and the like. If the messups are entertaining, it's all good. Fozzie is very aware of this, which is why (as of my stories) he welcomes Statler and Waldorf's (and Jack Black's) heckling. It may...

    I just say it's for my niece, Zoe. It's easier to remember.

    There's always the old "making a gift for a kid" alibi, too.

    Thanks, Count. I was thinking of that very thing when I planned out the scene with Piggy, Scooter, and Janken. Jan's one of those people who needs to be pushed, and Muppets certainly are pushy enough. ;) I was wondering, did Janken's discussion of friendship/love in the previous chapter make...

    Welcome to the penultimate chapter of... ***** Growing Together Part 12: Try a Little Harder for Your Friends by Kim McFarland ***** Late that morning Janken arrived at the Muppet Theater. Each Monday they viewed the weekend's acts and decided which ones they would use in the TV episode...

    I have two sayings for situations for situations like this: "It's never too late to have a happy childhood." and "I'm old enough to know better, and young enough not to give a ****."

    Janken and Scooter have been a couple on their own terms. Neither is terribly experienced, and Janken is kind of a wembler. What they've had has suited them so far, but it looks like they're ready to move on. And, yeah, all they did was snog before sleeping. I guess when you're used to...

    I just did a slow-mo of that scene, and it's way creepier that way. Plus, I could see that his eyes were closed Muppet-Babies style, meaning his pupils were blinked out rather than him having eyelids. I never noticed that before. No piercings, though.

    I've played Frank for over two decades now, yet I had no idea what was up with the cage dancer thing until i looked it up aafter seeing VMX. Yikes! (Am I a bad person for wishing I could get a clearer shot of the cage dancer puppet so I could see if he has any piercings? We RHPS casties are...

    I think I love you. ;) I'm a Rocky Horror veteran, so if I get a Scooter doll he's gonna wind up in fishnets and a corset no matter what

    Thanks, guys. One thing I forgot to mention: Janken's song can be sung more or less to the tune of There's a Fine, Fine Line from Avenue Q.

    Why yes, it does. And, on that note, let it be known that I have a good sense of humor and my birthday is in April. ;)

    Especially if they sell black tank tops, shorts, and boots. I can supply the glow tubes and black nail polish myself. ...What?

    Ooh, I hope that the actual dolls look that good. And if they really do add Scooter to the lineup I will HAVE to make me one.

    Calendar Oneshots: January Joy

    Aw, jeez, this was so cute. I remember Schoolhouse Rock very fondly. It was a fantastic teaching tool. It still amazes me that they managed to explain the concept of counting in base 12 to a 7-year-old non-mathematically-inclined kid like me. I could see all this in my mind as I read it...

    Ru, you and I see Piggy and Kermit differently. I've been "claimed" by others, and even stalked (thank heavens for neighbors who call the police instead of turning a blind eye!), so I don't find myself as firmly on Piggy's side as you are. While watching TMS I sometimes wish he'd tell the...

    New Muppet Valentines

    At Kroger I was glancing around the Disney kiddie valentines, and found, nestled among the Disney Princesses, tween girls, and Cars boxes, some Muppet valentines. It's a box of 32. There are eight designs: Miss Piggy in front of the Eiffel tower: "You are the only Valentine for Moi!" Kermit in...

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    Hmm. The local AMC had been running it twice a day, but as of this week it's back to showing all day. Hope that means they're selling more tickets. I would be re-seeing it right now, in fact, if Atlanta's public transportation was even slightly reliable and buses that only run once an hour...
