I got the book today. Enjoyed looking through it. I haven't even fully read every page yet (I've read most). Somehow I expected the Sam and Friends section to only include images from The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years (well, a promotional image, that's definitely not a still)...

Bill Watterson refused to license Calvin and Hobbes merchandise because he thought licensing would ruin the comic strip, thinking it'd ruin the integrity and that when characters are licensed the creators tend to find making them marketable/profitable a bigger priority than making them funny or...

I recently wrote an article about Darkwing Duck on The Mickey Mindset: http://mickeymindset.blogspot.com/2014/02/why-darkwing-duck-is-such-great-show.html

I have not yet seen a copy of The Muppets Character Encyclopedia in stores, but last night I dreamt that I found a copy. It was bigger than I had expected (other people have said it's smaller than they expected. I don't know what they expected, but I thought it'd be the size of DK's "Ultimate...

Looking at the Tough Pigs review, there's an image of the two-page spread with both Nigels. In the one with the conductor, one of the images is from The Muppets when Thog got stuck in an arch. Was that really an image to use (I would have expected that to be on the Thog page)? I know Nigel and...

Top ten underrated Weird Al Yankovic songs (I wanted to call the list "top ten Weird Al songs nobody has heard of", but I guess either title serves a similar purpose): 10. Such a Groovy Guy 9. That Boy Could Dance 8. Syndicated, Inc. 7. Stop Dragging My Car Around 6. Don't Wear Those...

Yeah there was a reporter for E! named John Henson. It would be sad if it was our John Henson (well, it's still a bad thing regardless of which John Henson it is), especially since he's the youngest of the Henson children.

I already found a copy of the Muppets Most Wanted junior novelization. Didn't buy it, but I did look at the first and last pages (I'll be surprised if the movie has the same ending).

In two episodes of The Muppet Show, there's a group of full-body clowns, but both of their scenes feature black backgrounds. What's the deal with only putting those clowns in front of black backgrounds? They're costumed characters, they don't require the performers to dress in black and hide...

In many episodes of The Wonder Years, when Winnie appears for the first time in an episode, there's often special music that plays. Kinda sounds like a guitar solo, with some "ah-ah-ah" sounds. Was this tune composed especially for the show (I'd like to call it "Winnie's Theme") or was it an...

I think I've already seen pictures of The Swedish Chef and Sam the Eagle toys somewhere.

Disney shouldn't be desperate for money. Disney could just, you know, release season four of The Muppet Show. Or, if Disney was really desperate but didn't want to get music cleared, they could release every little Muppet production that doesn't require music clearances (most of which are...

The Muppet Mindset has posted a review: http://themuppetmindset.blogspot.com/2014/02/book-review-muppets-character.html I kind of hope that tomorrow's Weekly Muppet Wednesday spotlights a character not in this book (who could have legally been included). Of course I don't know whether the...

Actually, under "likes" the whole thing says that he likes "breakfast, lunch, and dinner (he's not much of a dessert person)". I keep forgetting which spelling is "dessert" and which is "desert", and didn't feel like checking the page. And it is kind of funny that he likes all three meals but...

Looking at the Sweetums page, I find it interesting it says Sweetums likes "Breakfast, lunch, and dinner". Somehow I feel it would have been better to just say he liked breakfast, as a nod to The Frog Prince where he wanted Robin for breakfast (apparently, having Robin for lunch, dinner, or just...

Top ten characters I wish weren't "put on a bus" or given Chuck Cunningham syndrome. 1. Kirk Devane (Newhart) 2. Leslie Vanderkellen (Newhart) 3. Coach Cutlip (The Wonder Years) 4. John Burns (Taxi) 5. Laurie Foreman (That '70s Show) 6. Chuck Cunningham (Happy Days) 7. Corine Tate (Soap) 8...

Well, volume 3 has episode 1836, which has a few scenes where Maria seems to believe that Snuffy is real (or at least is initially willing to check Big Bird's nest and later wait for Snuffy with Big Bird, before Olivia stops her). Even though reportedly the 16th season premiere involves Maria...

Then maybe they should have had them sitting with him.

Lips was there but he didn't play the trumpet (I don't think Zoot played the saxophone either).
