    Watching JHH at the Museum of TV and Radio

    Sam & Friends? That's awesome, Cantus. I didn't even see that listed. Do you have to type in Sam & Friends directly, or it was under some other name (like a Jim Henson compilation)?

    Watching JHH at the Museum of TV and Radio

    Here's what I love about living in LA. In the past, if I needed a Muppet fix, and I didn't have anything new on tape, I'd have to watch something I'd seen 100 times anyway. Today, on the other hand, I went to the Museum of TV and Radio in Beverly Hills. I typed in "Jim Henson" and got 189...

    Gonzo's Species

    Honestly, Daffyfan, the reason why no one responded to your comments on this was because we all thought you were joking. It sounded like a Fozzie pun. :o Yes, "canon" means that which is considered unarguably accurate and true. The books of the Bible are considered canon by Bible scholars...

    Sherlock, I believe we've stated multiple times that the issue is NOT the episodes that aren't available for purchase. My last post was meant for those who said that they HAD to get illegal copies of the Time-Life episodes, as though it were a life-and-death situation. And yes, if it comes...

    Gonzo's Species

    Wiggy, I liked your story! Like you and Fozzie, I've been working on a composite history of the Muppets that might someday see the light of day on this site. I think it's fun to discuss this kind of thing, but as has been noted, it's nothing to drive ourselves crazy about. As I've pointed out...

    Yeah, hopefully the next one will at least have more of this guy: :sing:

    Yes, that's the one. Sorry, I thought I saw that on Amazon. Anyone who's interested, follow Scott's link! :D

    Actually, in the UK they have a BETTER deal. There's a VHS box set that has most of the same episodes as Time-Life, plus about 3 more a tape! I for one am extremely envious. ;) UK shoppers can check it out on Amazon.com. And I would like to gently remind everyone that owning every episode of...

    Muppet Classic Theatre: An early Muppets Tonight?

    What...another Steve/Dave team? LOL! ;) Most of Jerry's characters were on hand for VMMCM. I do miss Dr. Strangepork, though, and Link as well. :sympathy:

    Dang! I forgot an important one. :concern: In the M@WDW special, Beau has Piggy ride Star Tours. That's another triple crossover! :sing:

    You can also order episodes from Time-Life through their website or by phone, if no stores carry the videos or DVDs in your area.

    Will the Muppet Movie magic ever come back?

    I do think the original stuff is put upon a pedestal too much. I mean, watching the Time-Life videos, I now see that TMS didn't hit one out of the ballpark with every sketch and every episode. Similarly, there's been a lot of funny, entertaining stuff in the post-Jim era. I would agree that, as...

    Muppet Classic Theatre: An early Muppets Tonight?

    "Great points, Chilly. I never thought of all that before now." Thanks, Foz. I only started noticing it because Jerry Juhl once pointed it out, I think in the interview on this website. "I just wish they'd pair Gonzo up with Kermit and Fozzie more." Now that Eric's doing Fozzie, we may...

    LOL!! Very funny stuff, Jamie, but I agree that we got the best ones. Thanks for the preview of the penguin -- can't wait! I just realized I've never used a Bert avatar. :( Well, that was my excuse to, I guess. I suppose with all the smileys I can't help but be happy! :flirt: ( < --...

    Muppet Classic Theatre: An early Muppets Tonight?

    "It's weird how much Dave and Steve work together. Rizzo and Gonzo, Bunsen and Beaker, and even Kermit and Gonzo. Besides Jim and Frank I can't think of a duo that has so many charater teams." Oh, yes! :excited: That's very deliberate. The writers like teaming up performers who work well...

    When Muppets, Star Wars, and Disney clashed...

    Yeah. As I recall, Piggy left Gonzo stranded at the park. He was sitting on a bench and started hitting on the real Cinderella! I miss that special. We may have to arrange a trade sometime in the near future. :excited: OK, so do we have a complete list of crossovers yet? Here are all the...
