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.
So just Caroll Spinney's Muppets where present. None of Frank's, Jim's or Jerry's characters at all? Weird. No wonder I rarely heard about it. lol
Though I do love Christmas Eve on Sesame Street. That was a classic. I bought the dvd awhile back. And I think I was just fusterated with the cover...
Yeah, I love the classic stock photos and not the 90s, 2000s ones with Kermit and the characters making silly poses. In fact, I got this newish calender my father's wife bought me when she was at Boarders thinking "It's Muppets, Eric must like it." That's why I hate it when family buys me...
WOO HOO Alright, new classic Sesame DVDs. That's so going on my christmas list next to The Muppet Christmas Carol Blu-Ray.
I've heard this special rumored around tape trade sites but I heard only a bad quality version was being passed around. Finally an official DVD of it. I hope Ernie and...
To me this must have came around The Great Muppet Caper era so it's possible that it came from a promotion of that movie and just photoshop clean up like shown in that example. Somewhere in between 1980-1983 I believe. It totally looks like very late or after Muppet Show era in my opinion. But...
I'm currently looking for any rare footage of interviews and or printed articles. I know that's there's a bunch that float on the internet but what I want is actual DVDs and magazines or printed material in the palm of my hands sort of speak.
I have a bunch of TV apperances and things like...
I'm currently looking for these apperances from Ed Sullivan, Flip Wilson and Johnny Carson
If you have any of these, send me a PM as well as your wish list and we can trade. I have a huge tape trade collection, including tv apperances and lots of stuff that's not already on DVD. As well as...
I remember someone said that Muppets Tonight, MTI and MCC were different in terms of being too modern or something like that. I was just curious if there were examples of that, because I personally didn't notice anything in differ of that. And like I mentioned it's probably because the 90s were...
Did I mention the one with Elmo in Space with Prarie Dawn. The old funny pain in the neck Elmo? lol That one was super funny. It's amazing how Elmo became today. Same with the first original goofy clumsy Big Bird with Cookie Monster type eyes but half shut in his eyes to what he became today...
HA HA HA, I totally forgot about that one. lol I remember I did a tape trade years ago (the VHS stoneage time of Tape trades) and making a combo VHS for myself, I found that sketch and I put it on a tape for myself. I might have transmited it to DVD, I don't remember.
Is there a youtube link...
Yes, I remember seeing Him was executive producer in the opening credits. Though I think it was completed by the end of 1989.
Also in 1989 Jim was working with the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie and I guess there was a lot of conflicts behind the scenes with the producers and...
Ah yes, the remake of the Sam & Friends classic :) I heard Stuffed and Unstrung are remaking all the classic Muppet sketches again. So far I know they are doing Java and I've Grown Accustom to your face and even sketches in which the original film footage no longer exists.
Who's Liza? I've...
He or she is fine with me, I identify as Androgyne anyway which is a gender idenity meaning Androgynous, but I was born male so either way is fine with me. lol Though I heard xhe or something like that is the Androgyne PC way of saying it but I'm still learning the lingo so don't worry about it...
Hmmm, very interesting. I probably didn't see them as modern probably because I grew up in the 90s generation. lol
I also like the quote about how some projects had something and others didn't. It makes me think about the elements of what made The Muppets more. :)
I wanted to open this thread just to make sure that I have the correct information or if there's some new info that I never knew about as a Jim Henson historian which I like to conciser myself. :)
I remember for awhile I thought Muppet Vision 3D was Jim's final Muppet project but just recently...
I personally never noticed anything in terms of The Muppets going on the current times, trends or fads or anything like that became they always seemed very timeless. What I was mentioning was the classic Muppet trademark style of explosions, slapstick, monsters, weirdness, energetic wackiness...
Briefly mentioning Disco, I really like Shalamar myself. :)
Anyway what I think was great about The Muppets was they were timeless like the classic Looney Tunes
And just in general for any classic fictional comedy characters, it's just sad when if I walk into some sort of pop culture store...
I hope it gets remastered on CD or even itunes /Amazon mp3 someday. I'd love to hear it. Perhaps there's a song about karate chopping "YIIIIYAAAH!" lol I was watching The Fantastic Miss Piggy Show last night when I made this thread. lol Awesome Special. Does anyone have an mp3 copy of the album...
