Hey folks, Don't tell anyone at that OTHER major Muppet fansite, but there are apparently some screenings planned at the Museum of Television & Radio to celebrate 50 years of Muppetty goodness. Brian and Lisa will even be there at the California one. Here's what was in an e-mail I got...

Why is Pepe the go-to Behind-The-Scenes character? Oz, I can sorta understand. But PLEASE, Disney, keep Pepe AWAY from the Classic material!!!!! He sucks, okay? I still don't see his appeal, and what makes the people in charge feel he needs such constant over-exposure. He should be...

Yeah, I guess Bill does it differently, but if you go to his Muppography and Television Series, Juliet Prowse is first, and it mentions Connie as #2 and Rita as #5, despite not being ordered that way in the text. Also, Beau, you liked Sex & Violence better than the actual show??? That just...

They're in production order, and that's generally the order they are ordered by in most lists online, like at Bill Sherman's, Muppet Central's, and Scarecroe's. The main reason for this is that they aired in different orders, all over the place, so there's not really a definitive one. They do...

As is a classic truth in comedy and pizza, "It's all in the delivery". A lot of the stuff in the more modern productions is in poor taste and comes off as crude, and just there for a cheap laugh, dumbing it down. The stuff of this classic material is more that would go over children's heads...

I think GelflingWaldo pretty much summarized exactly how I feel about this set, and is a good way of articulating all of the plusses and minuses of it. Definitely a good set, but they most certainly need to hear fan feedback and realize what needs to be fixed. I guess we can hopefully equate...

I picked up my copy, as soon as the FYE across from my Disney Store opened, yesterday, and the set is really terrific. I like how you can't really tell, at least so far, that something was cut, if you didn't already know. Sorta makes me wish I didn't know. Ignorance is bliss, right? Still...

Well, as far as the confusion there, they do tout it as "remastered and restored", and that can seem to imply restoration from episodes being incomplete from previous television airings. It also sounds like Gelfling Waldo was specifically, at least for one part, referring to Ernie and Bert...

First and foremost, I don't have to be a moderator to know that the name-calling is ridiculous. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and the whole point of forums such as these are to be able to express and debate those opinions. Let's just not get nasty over it or try to act high and mighty...

I'm not going to not buy the set. Heck, I'm opening my store, tomorrow, which is right across from an FYE, so I'll get the first dibs. At the same time, however, I disagree with the "So what?" reasoning. If we are being promised certain things we should get them. All of this legality and ABC...

I, myself, though not complaining about it, per se, am wondering what the deal is with the closing Zoot shot. For me, the original first season openings are a huge treat, and I am justifying so much on them being what's availavble nowhere else, to counter-balance cut footage. However, I am not...

Ok, so I started a separate thread and was then pointed out to this one. I am very split, but am also very miffed, mostly about the pitch reel. When it is advertised on the cover, and included obviously as a treat to the diehards like some of us, THIS should be left untouched. It is a huge...

How'd you get it? -Zach

It just struck me as something to ponder, though thankfully for not too much longer. This coming Tuesday, the first season of The Muppet Show is finally coming to DVD, after so much anticipation and (im)patience. So, I was thinking, being that we're getting the full un-cut episodes from the...

Really? I feel something is off with the face. Like the angles of the eyebrows or it's thinner or something odd. -Squigiman

I was mainly referring to the over-use of the term at the end of the sentence, which both the "Hokay?"s and "Okey-dokey"s serve as. Chef never said it so constantly. In fact, now that it was brought up, the only time I can remember him saying it, right now, is the classic line from TMM. It...

Eric Jacobson's been doing Fozzie and Piggy for a while now, with the biggest production prior to this being IAVMMCM. Either way, that's beside the point. I would like to hear others' thoughts on the look of the new Chef puppet, but I can also understand talking about new performers taking...

Hey gang, Just wondering what everyone thinks of the new design of the Chef on the latest "From The Balcony" with S&W. I think Baretta really nailed the voice and that made me happy, as did his last crack at Rowlf. I honestly think he should stick with those kinds of covers, as I don't...

I think it's part of some official sort of auction on eBay, not just somebody. I came across it, after being linked from TheForce.net about auctions for such historic film memoribilia as Luke and Vader's original sabers. Lots of cool and authentic stuff up there. Nice to see something...
