    TMS Season 2 Box Set - 2007 Release?

    They said no the first time! What makes you think they'd change their minds just because you asked nicely?

    Robin halfway down the stairs

    And also in the original broadcast version of the show. I don't know when it was re-edited to use the blue version - or why - but it probably occurred some time after 1983, as I have an original copy of the ep dated '83 which definitely uses the yellow version. Strangely enough, it only...

    Your Thoughts: TMS Season 1 DVD

    You're correct, rights do vary from country to country. It is therefore distinctly possible that Disney simply went for the 'lowest common denominator': they cut out everything that could not be cleared for all territories.

    TMS Season 2 Box Set - 2007 Release?

    No reason why it should: it's nothing to do with Season One. The theme and opening titles changed for every season. And your point is? The show evolved, as all long-running shows do. Characters were dropped; new characters were introduced. Sketches were dropped, new ones took their place...

    Elton John's costume from "Don't Go Breaking My Heart"

    Looky looky... Yup, that's the original costume, now on display in the Royal Scottish Museum in Edinburgh, and the placard notes that it was made for his appearance on TMS... (Sorry about the picture quality, phone cameras are useless.)

    "Muppet Movie" Bloopers..

    Bear in mind that if you're watching a 4:3 version of the film, you're seeing a good deal of picture that was never intended to be seen and would have been cropped off when the film was shown in the cinemas (and obviously is also cropped off on the widescreen DVD). So far as I know, all VHS...

    Fraggle Rock UK broadcast dates

    Not as many as I'd like :-( I have the 20 shows released on VHS in the 80s plus the 12 released on DVD a few years ago (8 of which simply duplicate the VHS copies), plus two off-air recordings ("Born to Wander" and "The Garden Plot"). If anybody's reading this and has other UK shows they'd...
