Sam and Friends Book Read our review of the long-awaited book, "Sam and Friends - The Story of Jim Henson's First Television Show" by Muppet Historian Craig Shemin.
When I was in the first grade, I recall watching a sign language video featuring Linda Bove. There was a deaf kid in our class, which is probably why we watched the video. In fact I don't think I understood why Linda used sign language and didn't talk until I knew an actual deaf person.
Oh...
When I saw that recent behind-the-scenes video with The Miz referred to as a "Muppisode", I thought it was merely an appearance on WWE, with "Muppisode" being a clever title for a segment with the Muppets. Didn't know it was supposed to be a web series starring the Muppets.
And this video...
It seems like they chose odd times to cut to commercial, but maybe it was just hard to find the right spots to lead to commercial. And it hit me that this might be the first time I watched this movie with commercial interruptions.
"When Love is Gone" wasn't included. I'm not surprised, since it's airing in widescreen.
The colors look so great in this broadcast, which I assume was the copy used for either the Blu-Ray or most recent DVD release.
For the last few weeks, there have been times when I've tried listing 200 characters in alphabetical order. I never saved the list any of these times, it allows me to redo it over and over for fun. But for some reason when I do it I actually keep forgetting about a lot of characters I shouldn't...
You know, there's a few super-obscure characters who I wonder if they'll be in this book. Characters so rare that Muppet Wiki doesn't have any pages for them.
One such character is a pink female bird character who appeared in a promotional image for The Jim Henson Hour, but on the show...
Maybe Crazy Harry will provide explosions. Or just crazed laughter (or maybe crazed laughter following explosions). Or perhaps he'll go back to the triangle bell.
What is it about Sam Arrow that gets that variant in merchandise, while other MTI variants don't?
Sam Arrow was one of very few Muppet Treasure Island action figures put out by Palisades, and that one even had an exclusive variant (he was one of the few characters in the movie to have any...
I was just looking at the menu screen for each stage, and there's going to be a new stage coming soon. The image is dark but it looks like Animal is once again the character featured on the image (he was already the featured image character for the first stage). I guess Lew Zealand will probably...
A few things concerning Saturday Night Live, and some of it might qualify more for the "did you ever notice...?" thread, but I'm not entirely sure.
The sixth season is considered an "old shame" of the show. Not sure if that's for the shows owner, the producers, or what. But most of the cast...
Well, The Electric Mayhem was the background band for the opening song. And actually, if this was done in 2000, I think the Electric Mayhem scenes would have been done. It probably wouldn't have had Lips, and most of the dialogue would have been given to Floyd and Animal, though I could still...
I didn't watch all of this broadcast, and there were times I wasn't paying attention, but is it just me or were the Scrubs and Fear Factor scenes cut?
Though if those were, it was kind of a strength. I always thought it was weird that the Muppets determined that Miss Piggy was a big-enough...
Not surprisingly, they also cut the scene with the NBC logo on Kermit's foot. Actually, they kept the dialogue in, but I think they dubbed it over a different shot of Kermit talking. I can't remember if the NBC music played in this scene or not, but if it did then that was cut.
I'm watching this right now, and they cut out the entire Crocodile Hunter scene. So those seeing this for the first time suddenly saw Fozzie looking like the Grinch without knowing why.
Now that I think about it, considering the one with Guy Smiley was available on Verizon phones in the past, was that sketch released in english or another language (I think I've read the service included non-English segments)?
He wasn't in Muppets' Wizard of Oz. Maybe it's just me but it seems like he was gone during that period, and then came back in 2008 (while Johnny and Sal started to be dropped). Then again there weren't many Muppet projects between 2006-2008.
Maybe I did, but can't remember if I asked it here or somewhere else (or maybe I did ask here and somewhere else). I don't remember if I had gotten an answer. I guess I'll have to find time to search through all 115 pages of posts to see.
How do ratings work, anyway? I know that there are nielsen families who keep track of what they watch and when, and I think there's a satellite-thingy which keeps track of TVs that have the programs on, but I recently read an article about Thursday nights ratings (regarding the Muppets & Lady...
I've been reading the comments section of the review at The Muppet Mindset, and it seems like many who watched the special and commented there really hated it. While some of us had positive things to say about it in this thread as well as the thread at Tough Pigs (and the review at The Muppet...
