    Ernie & Prairie Dawn

    This is very interesting. I never realized that Bert and Betty Lou had a thing for each other, or Ernie and Prairie Dawn for that matter, but wow, it is cool, nonetheless. I have a question, though. We all know Bert and Ernie are best friends and roommates, but did Betty and Prairie ever...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    Well, if it is not a good idea that the muppets from "the Muppet Show" come onto Sesame Street, then the muppets from "Sesame Street" should definitely visit the Muppet Theater. There are many interesting things that could happen. It does not need to be a special or anything, but I still like...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    O-k, let me put it this way, both "Sesame Street" and "the Muppet Show" appeal to children and adults alike, but teach the audience different things. "Sesame Street" teaches us to use our imagination through education. "The Muppet Show" teaches us to use our determination through education. I...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    Well, I still stand by my idea. I know Sesame Street may not need politics, but it would not kill the creators of the show to do a cross-over with "the Muppet Show." As I said, many interesting things could happen. I know the muppets from both shows act very different, but the truth is, if it...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    There are not any so far, but Doc Hopper could try to kidnap Kermit the Frog again. However, even though, Kermit is on Sesame Street, that does not stop Doc Hopper from trying to eat him. Who knows, it might make both "Sesame Street" and "the Muppet Show", get a bigger audience again. I know...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    I know the muppets from "the Muppet Show" might have to get toned down a lot, but it would be still very interesting to see. It can give the "Sesame Street" muppets a chance to get to know Kermit the Frog's friends. My other idea, though, about someone trying to eat Kermit the Frog on "Sesame...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    Two things: 1) The "Sesame Street" muppets visited the muppets from "the Muppet Show" various times. 2) The crossover episode could feature childhood education/character building/quirky skits, and vaudeville-like variety acts to stimulate reactions. Maybe the muppets from "the Muppet Show"...

    What Would You Like to See on SST?

    I would like to see the muppets from "the Muppet Show" visit the Sesame Street muppets for once. It is always the other way around, I do not know why. There could be an episode, such as the following. Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear, the Great Gonzo, and the gang are searching for Kermit the Frog...

    Who performed Betty lou?

    Marilyn Sokol also played her in a few episodes, but Lisa Buckley mainly plays her. Muppetmonster

    Oscar the Grouch and the Muppet Show

    Yes, that is true. Oscar the Grouch did let Rizzo bunk with him in "Muppet Family Christmas", but I do not think Oscar would like to be friends with the muppets from the Muppet Show either. He might like their interest in violence (though mild), wisecracking, and cynical and sarcastic humor, but...

    Could some Muppets be considered violent?

    I guess I got carried away, but I am not going to call that being very sensitive. It is just I guess I was thrown off by your question, and took it the wrong way, but to answer your question. I guess, I was just curious to know if whether or not the muppets would be considered violent, that is...

    Lew Zealand and his singing fish

    I never saw the episode Lew Zealand appeared with his singing fish in "the Muppet Show", but the only reason I know he performs this act is his appearance on the "Muppets Inside" CD Rom game. Anyway, I read on the Internet that he appears in episode 524 of "the Muppet Show", of where he performs...

    Muppet family relationships

    Didn't Bert have an aunt in an episode? I cannot remember, but I remember Bert having an aunt. Maybe she is a character who is never seen. Waldorf also has a sister named Astoria. About Scooter and Gobo, I completely agree, maybe one of his parents is a fraggle. Red kind of also looks like...

    Could some Muppets be considered violent?

    I have a question to everyone. Would you consider the muppets on "the Muppet Show" (not "Sesame Street") to be violent? I know the show is not extremely violent, but it does seem to have mild violence, at least to me. For example, Marvin Suggs being sadistic and hitting what is otherwise known...

    Possible Muppet Family Relations?

    No, none of those actually seem logical, but I have a question. Is the six foot canary with the mentality of a child you are referring to, Big Bird? This might seem obvious, but the reason I am asking, is because I always thought Big Bird was an ostrich, but of course, I could be wrong. I am...

    Muppet Influences

    I am sure the muppets were very influential, but the top two influences I can think of are recent episodes of "Sesame Street" (as "Sesame Street" also influenced "the Muppet Show") and the film, "Meet the Feebles." Probably way too much with the latter, (sigh). For more influences, I do not know...

    Is Meet the Feebles worth seeing?

    Wow, someone posted this thread about the movie before I did. He-he. I never saw "Meet the Feebles", but I really want to see it, since it is very Jim Henson like. I know it is full of graphic violence, but it being a gross out comedy, a musical, and a parody of "the Muppet Show" make it all the...

    Jim Henson and Kermit the Frog vs. Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse

    It is kind of hard to say, I really love Mickey and Kermit, as they are both great icons, and were created by legendary people: Mickey (Walt Disney) and Kermit (Jim Henson), but I need to be honest about something. Even though, Mickey is a cool character, his old personality was much better, it...
