Thank you for fixing my hair, dear. You're a doll.

Can I be the first person to officially say, "Who cares about new characters?" We'd just like to see our old friends back, and we'd like to see all of them. Together. As I believe the Star Trek franchise is about to find out, (with their up-coming incarnation of "Star Trek Babies" about the...

When Kermit has a fit because she's planted rumors that she's snuggling with Avery? That was the relieved reaction of a man who can't wait to get rid of a woman? When he tells her that she looks very elegant in her high heels? Or sneaks a peak inside the mermaid suit? Or kisses her backstage...

Chapter 41: Machinations “That’s right, officer,” said the grey-haired gentleman. “We were coming out of a show—the four of us—and saw a crowd of young people go by.” The officer felt his mouth trying to quirk into a smile. Everyone here must seem like a young person to this fellow, he...

Funny to whom? If you watch the original shows and movies--TMS, any season, or TMM or TGMC or TMTM--it is perfectly obvious on stage and off that there is more going on here than just Piggy hankering after Kermit. His jealous fits, his admiring looks at her, the way they banter back and...

What was it doing in the bag in the first place? It wasn't Mr. Meowmeow, was it?

DVD MWoO better True, Fozzie. The show has some nice moments, and the lack of commercial breaks definitely helps the momentum. The perfomances weren't actually bad. Just the, um, writing. I don't want to sound harsh, but on many of Disney's sequels--their made-for-tv stuff, they seem...

OH--about the convention thing. I've actually helped organize fan conventions before, so I wasn't kidding. If you need fan help, send a shout out.

A lot depends on what you mean by "canon." Do television appearances count? If so, Kermit's been pretty mean about Piggy lately. But he was pretty ushy-gushy last year at the TV Land awards. What about books? Do they count? If so--once again--Kermit was pretty awful about Piggy, but then...

(whispering) Um, I don't suppose we could hope to see a Kermit who was actually nice to Piggy, could we? Or is that expecting too much?

If they want a sign of support, I'm in. Say the word and I'm there with my magic plastic money card. Promise. If theres a Muppetfest, I'm coming with my feather boa and my checkbook. So--set 'em up, boys! Seriously! If there is anyting we can do here at MC as a show of support for a...

(It is early morning and things are grumpy in Room 20. Catherine is herding her roomies around like a drill sargeant while everyone pretty much whines and grumbles.) Catherine: That is IT! No more late night movies! And if I have any more grumblings about how early morning comes, I'm going...

SS kind of gal Well, I grew up with those guys--at least some of them. And I try to keep my "Street Cred" by knowing who the new folks are. Not going to catch me calling Zoe Elmo or anything like that. I miss Kermit, though, and his "Frog on the Street" reports. One of my favorite VHS...

Chapter 40: Hair of the dog Rowlf had the news on, but the sound off, so he was able to hear the patter of little flippers before they came into the living room. He turned from the television to find Robin standing sleepily in the doorway. He was wearing flannel pajamas with clouds on them...

Okay--I hope I'm doing this right, but there is a website where you can order Muppet Checks! (If I did it right, the website link should be below.) There are several different pictures--one of Kermit, one of Piggy, one of the two of them together, one of Animal, a hilarious one of Bunsen and...

A very nice piece of inspired silliness, Ry-guy. And some very deft characterizations (especially Telly). What a nice thing to do with leftover stress!

Offerings Once Kermit had satisfied himself that Piggy was truly un-traumatized by the day’s events, he went off to make himself useful. With a little determined digging, Kermit found wild rice in one of his mother’s tins and, stealing a little water from the teapot, made a bowl of brown rice...

Chapter 39: Shaking a Leg “Better?” asked Scooter. He was wearing soft, almost-white denims and a blue chambray dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Sara stepped close to him and tugged on his collar, then ruffled his hair. “There—that’s better.” “Sara—don’t mess my—“ Sara made a very...

Chapter 38: Dark men Scribbler slumped into one of the pubs and sat at a stool at the far end of the bar. The waitress behind the counter took his muttered drink order without comment, but at least she did not offer the false cheeriness of some of the younger, more chirpy waitresses. The...

Catherine: Oh look! How very beautiful! Is this--is this for me? Or Piggy? Oh--it's so lovely! Thank you for the wedding cake topper--I hope we'll have a use for it sometime!
