LOL this is great. Caroll's performing Big Bird here, and they even used the old-school ending music at 1:39. Also, Big Bird might seem shorter because, you know, Caroll has aged and I don't think he can hold his arm up as high as he used to. Or maybe he is sitting on a stool or chair while...

Hmmm...I think that Rainbow Connection is better. Being Green was Kermit's original anthem and was covered by artists from Lena Horne and Ray Charles to the "Chairman" Frank Sinatra and (maybe) Tony Bennett. However, Rainbow Connection sums up the entire Muppet philosophy: that they have to...

Hello fufumuppet! Welcome to the world of Muppet fans! I'm sure you'll have a blast here! (cue a giggling Crazy Harry with a dynamite explosion. :crazy: hahahahahaha!!!) Also, I just saw your screen name and thought of Foo-Foo, Miss Piggy's dog, as well... hee hee.

I remember watching this on TV, I think it was a rerun...back then, I didn't get the meaning of all Cookie's lines, but now that I look back on it, his lines are funnier than most other SS skits with CM! Best part is the last line, which is not in the latest video, but the part 2 video in the...

I noticed that at the end of Kris Kristofferson's first number on the Muppet Show, Animal is thrashing his drum kit so hard that the cymbals fall off the stands! As a drummer, I know that this is physically impossible, so that scene made me laugh. The same thing happens in the 1974 "Sex and...

Great performances by Julie & the Muppets! I especially dig Dr. Teeth's number and the hilarious ending scene with the EM... Julie: What's the matter? I was just getting into it! Floyd: Well, it's OK, babe...I'm just getting out of it. (laughter) Julie: What did I do? Floyd: Not very much...

Absolutely outstanding!!! I love these! Just a few famous faces from a project that will be completed sometime in the future. Surprisingly, no Miss Piggy yet, but at least there is a good mix of Muppets, ranging from iconic (Kermit & Animal) to obscure (Lew Zealand & the Newsman). Check it out...

I cam across this video on the Muppet Mindset website: I prefer this video over the Rockefeller center one. But the music video is still tops. http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/muppets-lo-perform-love-gma-17817789

...and who also uses a blunderbuss to prepare his meals? Börk börk börk! Also worth noting that the Chef was played by Jim (the head & voice) AND Frank (the hands). The chemistry & comedic timing that they had as a pair were unbeatable. Welcome, MuppetFanbyRJM! We're glad to have you here...

Correct. I never knew Joe wrote so many Muppet Show/movie songs. I am more familiar with his work on Sesame Street (e.g. Being Green, C is for Cookie, Somebody Come and Play, Sing, etc.). Nightlife is a great song, but too short for me (only a minute & a half). I wish Jim & the crew recorded a...

I have five homemade Muppet ornaments. They all have medium-sized styrofoam balls for the heads & colored yarn for the skin. Kermit has light green yarn, foam eyes (on which I drew his trademark eye design), a felt mouth, and a foam collar. :) Fozzie Bear has golden yellow yarn, plastic googly...

All great songs! Yes, the Henson company should have released a Dr. Teeth/EM-only album...I think it would have sold very well. I believe they have enough material for two or three volumes of greatest hits. Also, that Muppets poster in your avatar is the same poster that my elementary school...

Yep, it's definitely a showcase for Jim Henson's singing skills...Jim, Jerry, & Richard were the best ones at singing fast-paced tunes, and they all were "members" of the Electric Mayhem. Also, the slot machine gag at the end of "Money" kills me every time. I LOVE "Rockin' Robin." That was...

(Kermit's voice) YAAAAYYYY!!!! (waves hands wildly in the air)

I am a huge fan of Dr. Teeth & the EM band, so I decided to create a thread about them. My favorites are "Tenderly" (record version with extended sax solo), "Don't Blame the Dynamite," "Sweet Tooth Jam," "Little Saint Nick," (from Muppets' & John Denver's Christmas album) and "Can You Picture...

If it hadn't been for this movie, the Muppets might not have had another opportunity for such a comeback. One year later, we are seeing the Muppets everywhere on television, the Internet, and lots of merchandise, which only provides more chances and opportunities for them. So even though I...

I haven't seen all five seasons in their entirety, but choosing form S1-S3, I have to say that Season 2 is my favorite. Julie Andrews, Dom Deluise, George Burns, John Cleese, Madeline Kahn, and Don Knotts all in one season! Not to mention Rudolf Nureyev and Elton John BACK-TO-BACK. I also liked...

Kevin's got a GREAT singing voice in my opinion. Not as good as Jerry's or Richard's, but very good nonetheless. Kevin did a lot of great tunes, from "Elmo's Song" and "Put Down the Duckie" to "Rebel L" and "Just Happy to Be Me" with his Muppet, Kingston Livingston III. I would have posted "Put...

That's right, I forgot that part with the phones... For some reason, I always thought that Bill Barretta and then Dave Goelz took over the Newsman after Jim's death, because Jim plays Rowlf & Dr. Teeth, who have that same rough quality to their voices that the Newsman have. Then I thought Dave...

Hi snichols1973. Nice to have you here. Do you have Muppet Christmas Carol or Muppet Treasure Island? I highly recommend MCC...it's very popular, even with non-Muppet fans. The MS Season sets are wonderful as well. Although there are edits and cut scenes from seasons 1 & 2 due to rights issues...
