I haven't had a huge number of celebrity (real or fictional) crushes largely because i tend to be attracted to people that have a "real life" look to them as opposed to someone who's real good looking and could be on magazine covers. So i'm more likely to crush on an extra more than a lead...

On the one hand, i can understand the anger and frustration that comes from the original post. On the other hand, as much as we adult Muppet fans like to believe that the show is just as much for "us" as it is the preschooler's (because the whole idea was to provide childrens' programming that...

Same situation here - i'm no expert since i haven't used ebay for years (not only because of the whole paypal monopoly mess but also avoiding using credit cards in general) but i sincerely doubt discount codes would even EXIST in the first place since ebay is an auction site and discounts would...

Definately an underrated talent that fans don't have enough info on. I think she's great and i always love in when she plays a sheep since she has such a great "lamb" voice.

Is that the trivia question then - who played Gordon in the test shows? Typically if someone asks a trivia question, the implication is that they have the correct answer on file so were you actually able to track down the question that fans and Michael Earl himself has been asking?

That sounds like the Miss Piggy's Hollywood special that originally aired as part of Jim Henson Hour (and was later shown as a stand-alone special). There's a parody of That' Entertainment that Piggy sings at Universal Studios which includes the line "the effects may be better than sex" Kermit...

Most annyoying insulting commercial of all time (not including political ads which are in a class of their own)..."My wife...I think I'll keep her." (showing my age with that one!)

(No offence or insensitivity meant towards anyone's losses here - just instilling a brief amount of levity in an otherwise somber topic:) Yikes it seems other animals consume bunnies the same way humans treat their chocolate versions! We devour the ears before anything else...so i guess dogs...

Yeah it is a bit odd - especially when one figures that PBS is the network commissioning the show so one would figure they'd taylor the running times especially for their airings. Though quite honestly the days of PBS being totally "commercial free" are over - instead of having programs...

It WOULD be all kinds of awesome if Wontkins popped up in some really obscure cameo! Luncheon Counter Monster has made kind of a small comeback - we got to see him in LTS where he even spoke "Mr. Bear...Mr. Bear...Mr. Uh..." (not sure what to address Gonzo as). And if i remember, i think...

That's the main difference. Although it should also be noted that Whatnots are far more varied and "anything goes" in their design whereas the Anything Muppets have very specific base types that have held pretty consistent over all 40 years - fat blue, green point head, long shaped orange...

Wow that's like choosing a fave song by one's fave artist or a fave Muppet ... so many classics to choose from. But there are three that come to the top of my mind as the best of the best: Sax & Violence - not only do you get Mahna Mahna doing his typical thing of infusing his unique hip...

(Debated as to whether i should post this in classic Muppets or puppetry - but since this is largely a "puppet building"/technical question, it seemed more appropriate here...and those most able to answer would be more likely to see it) I have long wondered about the durability of Gonzo's...

I second Carrie Hamilton - i really thought the world of her and miss her. Carol's early SS appearances really remind me of her (especially when she talks about noses) Julie Brown Annie Lennox (still holding out hope that one of these days she puts in an appearance singing about the...

Adding some stuff not mentioned - "Red short" - this was originally mentioned in the original announcements for the first complete series release. However this was changed between the original announcement and final release. They didn't have enough time to follow through on it. Before...

Frogboy pretty much took the words out of my mouth. It's inevitable that sooner or later there will be a dvd release and reairings somewhere (given the international market they probably ARE airing somewhere out there) and Disney would be foolish to not know what they're sitting on in terms...

Being born in 1971, Sesame Street was a huge part of my life - my parents told me that as a baby i was just transfixed by them and i would giggle uncontrollably when they were on - it was literally a "from the beginning" love. If you've read my blog, you'll know that i'm very much in favor of...

"Ooh - cupeecake" has always been one of my fave lines that i quote everytime i come in contact with a cupcake...despite the face that ever since that sketch came out when i was a kid i wondered why both Ernie and Cookie referred to them as cupcakes when they were actually brownies!

The opening was the same all throughout the series (except for two episodes in the first season that in their original broadcasts had Gobo or Wembley doing the final "Down in Fraggle Rock" instead of Boober). However i think one of the dvd bonus features showed the "album version" you're...

I can vouch for the pure evil-ness of SMC. I used to work there (Arizona has a lot of call centers). I had heard from a lot of people beforehand that it's not a good place to work but as someone who needed a graveyard job to work at as a second job, they were one of the few real good choices...
