Well, Rizzo had a strong lovable streak for a rat, and this is really when Rizzo came into his own. This pairing of him with Gonzo, and the way they play off of each other, has become one of the most memorable and enjoyable facets of the muppet universe. (Listen to their song on the A Red and...

Thrilled by your enthusiastic response (grateful you haven't told me to hush up and sit down), I thought I'd put my philosophical mood to good use (or at least, some use) and wax on about my favorite topic. What, exactly, made the muppets so attractive to, well, everyone when The Muppet Show...

Musings on the frog and pig Okay, it's time to weigh in on this topic. (Where the heck have I been?) Since I am one of the official old folks on the board, I'm going to invoke the priviledge of older folk and talk about what life was back when I was a kid. I had the priviledge of growing up...

I love the way you expressed Bunsen's slyness with so few features. A very nice minimalistic approach!

Chapter 12: A Fool-Proof Plan Chapter 12: A Fool-Proof Plan There is nothing quite so debilitating as a false sense of security. Piggy had had almost a whole day go by without anything that she felt she couldn’t have handled on her own, and the bonus had been that she had had the benefit...

Actually, I'm done with this one, but this story continues shortly with "Getting Swamped." Left to my own devises, I don't see the story every entirely being over! Thanks for reading, all you who have (and perhaps will in the future). I enjoyed, um, setting the record straight on what...

Chapter 21: Amnesty Kermit had been correct in his assumption that Piggy would make amends for her earlier hostility, and the evening found them comfortably wedged together on Kermit’s creaky couch. Piggy had solved the discomfort factor by piling every available cushion in the apartment onto...

THis has happened to me on more than one occasion since the upgrade/update of MC, so I don't think it's me. When I copy and paste sections of a story into the screen (like the one I'm typing into now), it turns all of my "close quotations" into "U201D." (Wonders idly if the problem will occur...

Chapter 20: He Said, She Said Chapter 20: He Said, She Said It had been a lovely, leisurely evening—eventually, but the franticness of the next day more than made up for it. Piggy felt breathless long after they’d arrived on the set, and she’s felt like she was running through a succession...

Chapter 6: All That Glitters “So, tell me about this love of your life," said Kermit as they clomped sedately down the wide streets of Hensonville. People cheered and waved, and Kermit waved back—so long as he did not have to loosen his death-grip on the saddle horn. True to their agreement...

I'm coming down the home stretch guys! One or two more posts and the story of their wedding and its aftermath will be done--at least, my story of their wedding and aftermath will be done. For those of you who have hung in there, with me--bless you! I hope you've enjoyed reading it even half...

Chapter 19: Pique of the Day Chapter 19: Pique of the Day Piggy’s pique had not survived on the set, but when they returned to her apartment she found it returning. She had rushed home and changed into something far more suited to an evening at home than what she had worn at work all...

Everybody all together now: Awwwww--that Robin is a cutie, huh? And such a fine, self-sacrificing little fellow. Be kindof hard not to do what he asked, seein' as how he was making such a big sacrifice for you, huh, Kermit? Kermit: Um, er.... And while you're at it--get the diva pig some...

The plot is thickening up like Sam's knees! Nice to see the whole gang up to shenanigans!

Chapter 11: Swimming with the Froggies Chapter 11: Swimming with the Froggies Actually, swimming with the crowd of young frogs proved to be marvelous fun. It was, Piggy observed, a little like finger painting. As a child, she had disliked getting dirty, but once you were already in the...

Miss Piggy: Heck isn't the only thing I'm going to be giving you if you don't get that little blue weirdo off of that knockoff "Oblivion" version of me! Gonzo in oblivion: Oh! Is that supposed to be you, Miss Piggy? I thought somebody put a trampoline down here.... Miss Piggy: Arghh!

Piggy: (peering down into hole leading to oblivion) Look buster! Get your tuckus up here! You've got some explaining to do! If I take someone to oblivion, he won't be making wise-cracks from the bottom of the well.

Fozzie: (somewhat uncertainly) Do you--you don't think she's slipped into a coma or anything, do you? Kermit: (slightly less uncertain) No..no. I'm sure she's fine. (looks at Piggy helplessly) You think? Piggy: (observing the disheveled, muttering figure at the desk) She's fine. Teabags...

A Place of Our Own Chapter 18: A Place of Our Own “Okay, people,” said Kermit. “Tomorrow is the last day of filming, so we have to do everything right today to make that happen.” He looked down at the sea of upturned faces from his stand on top of his director’s chair. “You guys have...

Apologies to anyone who is lost. Before you feel compelled to try Hari Krishna, see below: Brenda Starr was a ground-breaking comic strip. Scandalous at the time because she was a glamorous, talented, beautiful female reporter, and even MORE scandalous because the strip was WRITTEN BY A...
