Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
What if instead of just the lucky few who could afford HBO on top of cable; every kid in America could have had the chance to see Fraggle Rock? Imagine how many more fans there'd be, heck the Weinstein movie would probably have more juice behind it given EVERYONE would have remembered Fraggle...
As per our annual tradition, my family and I watched a lot of late 80's Muppet specials and episodes for Christmas eve/day.
And I was wondering if anyone else feels there's a certain special magic about the gang in the 1987-1990 period, right before JH's passing?
As I know this may be...
I really don't mean to nitpick, as it's amazing to walk into any comic store and see a whole mess of Muppet titles that have come out in the last year.
But something that's kind of bugged me is how Boom switched from the standard slick glossy pages to a kind of rough course paper
where it...
For many years, the mere mention of Disney would make a lot of fanboys(of any stripe) cringe.
But I don't know...between Tron 2 coming up and their hype around that, bringing forth Pixar's most astonishing films to date(like the recent Up), bringing back beautiful 2d(Princess and the Frog)...
What are some of the most annoying wrong names, misconceptions, etc people say when it comes to the Muppets?
(this may sound like elitism and whining, but I thought it'd be fun)
For me...
* Muppets are "baby/kids" stuff. Ooof. The Muppet Babies, which isn't canon in the least, hasn't...
I'm surprised I never figured this one out before...but for those of you who don't like the lag slow time of Muppets.com nor the inability to pause or easily navigate the videos...nor able to find all the hidden videos; here is a MUCH better way to view the videos...
Is it me or is there some sort of re-occurring theme going on between the Muppets and 30 Rock?
First I saw a great spoof of 30 Rock on Sesame Street:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vxv7qi3BJI
But then I started noticing a number of scenes here or there
on 30 rock where some of the...
Holy tamole...it's not just a new year fast approaching...but a whole new decade!
A little over 11 years on this site/forum, and it's amazing to look back at it all.
So...
1. How was your year?
2. How would you say your decade overall was?
3. And what things do you hope for/biggest wishes...
I've been hearing that we may see new Muppet merchandise hit
Disney stores in the mall, as well as *possibly* Target, Toys R Us and a few other places.
So if anyone gets word of when this stuff will appear before Christmas, or has actually seen it...post here:)
(sadly only thing Ive...
I've been following Jim Hill's blog for years, particularly in regards to
any thoughts on the Muppets. Hill has perhaps been the Muppets biggest vocal proponent in the respected Disney community, and boy did he just deliver quite the whopper...
Not sure how well petitions work(tho the one Warrick got rolling with Fraggle Rock worked...I see Fraggle Rock dvds prominently sold at Target, Walmart, FYE, Suncaost and Best Buy)
For most of you here, this will be a no brainer list. But I thought it bears(pun intended) repeating: Disney...
Ok, it's only 8 minutes...but man I've been waiting 11 years for this!

Between this and Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody, I couldnt be any happier:)
I have to say one of my absolute favorite Muppets now has to be Big Mean Carl. You saw him in last year's "Muppets Take Over Today Show" in the control room, you saw him as a postal clerk in Letters To Santa, and now he's in Bohemian Rhapsody
My hope is someday we'll get Big Mean Carl toys...
After seeing some of the new Muppet commercials Disney is heavily promoting on their sites for the new promotion(volunteer a day/get a free day) it strikes me as quite clear that Disney will be heavily using the Muppets for Disneyland/WDW parks and inhouse promotion in general.
And I...
Let me preface this by saying Kevin Clash's craft is absolutely astonishing, and I'm glad I got to meet him.
But I'm just going to say what I'm sure many of you already feel.
And that's that "Elmo" is a worthless, valueless, distracting character who I know at least with me evokes a sickening...
Finally, we get a full on look at the amazing suits that the Jim Henson Creature Shop made for this film. Looks absolutely visionary, and Im so glad these guys arent all cgi

Next year marks the 55 year anniversary of the Muppets, and it got me thinking...
Out of boredom I went to http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Muppet_Wiki and was randomly looking at all the characters listed simply for the Muppet Show/Muppet brand, Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, and Bear in the Big Blue...
Muppetnewsflash has been incognito and its hard to keep up with all the comic con reports.
Just wondering if there is any Muppet/Henson related merchandise, news, etc from Comic Con?(Muppets, Fraggle Rock, Henson alternative, anything?) I know last year Karen Prell with Red Fraggle had a...
Was there ever a Pepe plush released? All I can find is this one going for $100 on ebay(its 23 inches)
http://i.ebayimg.com/01/!BUymbb!CGk~$(KGrHgoH-EIEjlLl09!jBKPT6782KQ~~_1.JPG
Just wondering if there were any smaller Pepe plushes, and if theres any place I can find one
