    When anniversary seasons end...

    According to Muppet Wiki, one of the main curriculum goals of that season was to expose many of the classic songs, and it seems many classic songs had gotten new versions, in addition to showing the classic clips. Interestingly, I recall the season two Rubber Duckie was in two episodes that...

    The Muppets and YouTube.com

    Here's something interesting I found: Opening previews that appear on the UK release of Gonzo Presents Muppet Weird Stuff. What I find interesting is that it has individual promos for two of the Muppet Video releases (The Kermit and Piggy Story and Muppet Moments) but not the others (that...

    Longhorn and Shorthorn - two of the rarest characters ever

    One thing that I've often wondered about is two of Jim Henson's earliest characters, Longhorn and Shorthorn. They were cowboy characters who appeared on The Junior Good Morning Show. Anyway, has anybody noticed that there doesn't seem to be any images out there of them? I understand that...

    Coming Soon: "The Jim Henson Collection" DVD

    I know this is meant to be a cheap family-market release but wouldn't it be great if it had some of the company's unsold pilots and pitches, like Wizard of Id (not sure if they'd need character clearances) or Starboppers?

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    On the topic of the "single parent whose fiance secretly plans to send the kid to boarding school as soon as they are married", I especially wonder about it in Problem Child 2. Ben Healy seems to be in better control of himself in this one than in the previous movie, and while he still does bad...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    What's the deal with works of fiction where a single parent is to marry somebody who intends on sending the kid or kids to boarding school as soon as they are married? In most cases (that I know of) the parent is unaware of his/her fiance's intentions, but would the parent really allow their new...

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    I've been wondering how filming and editing has been by now. We haven't heard anything about it in a few months. I assume it's still going to be released somehow.

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    I first heard this song yesterday and it's been stuck inside my head a lot. I think I'll keep it in my head. From time-to-time I've also had another Norah Jones tune, "Everybody Needs a Best Friend" from Ted, in my head. The inside of my head is a great place for music.

    Million Muppets March in March

    Ever since the initial "million muppet march" was announced I've wanted to try to draw a picture of one million Muppets, if there are that many (and if not I can keep drawing the same chicken, penguin, cow, frog, rat, and pig designs over and over). In the past I've done a few Muppet fan fics...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Yeah I first heard about him being arrested for drug use after he had been off the show for awhile. I wasn't really asking about the deal regarding his absence, just the fact that they waited so long to do an episode about it.

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    I have a few "what's the deal with...?" questions regarding a few shows/episodes. First, what's the deal with Tommy Chong's stint as one of the main regulars on That '70s Show? He was first in the opening credits in season four, after being a frequent guest in seasons 2 and 3. But in season...

    Chapter 5 Kermit, Miss Piggy, Walter, and Robin were all alone at the subway station. "Now only a few of us are left", said Kermit, "I wonder if we should just give up." "Now Uncle Kermit", said Robin, "we walked all this way." "So what if it's now just a four Muppet march"...

    Million Muppets March in March

    Chapter 3 "So how long is this march supposed to take?", asked Miss Piggy. "Oh, probably just a few hours", said Kermit. "Moi's feet are already starting to ache", said Miss Piggy. "I'm already getting tired", said Professor Hastings, "I hope I don't... Fall... Asleep...." And...

    Million Muppets March in March

    Yeah, ever since the Million Muppet March (which soon became the Million Puppet March) in November, I've been wanting to draw such a picture, with a million Muppets, probably every character I could think of (and if I couldn't think of enough, I could just keep drawing the same chicken, rat, and...

    Million Muppets March in March

    Chapter 2 The Count had finally counted EVERYBODY, and had a crisis. "Kermit! I have one, one wonderful problem!" "Good grief", said Kermit, "what problem is that?" "I have counted everyone, and there are only 999,999 Muppets here!" "Looks like '80s Robot was wrong", said...
