    Any Big Mean Carl fans?

    Yep, Bobo started as one of the bears from MTM (which is fun to watch now since you can spot Bobo "in drag" during the wedding finale) and Carl made his debut in one of the Muppet Meeting Films.

    Jim Hill: Muppets Officially Back

    Nothing's on the table right now (or at least if there is, no one's leaked the news) There's a few things you may have heard. There had been several attempts over the last decade to do another primetime Muppet show. There was talk of a show for Fox around the beginning of the decade (before...

    Any Big Mean Carl fans?

    Actually the puppet has existed since 1992 so (even though he didn't) he could have been used in MCC or MTI if they decided to use him in either one. Although there were a lot of Muppets built due to accomodate scripts during MT! several new characters came about due to workshops during...

    Fozzie Jokes

    One of my faves is from the comic book: This gorilla walks through the door and he goes up to the counter and shouts, "THREE POUNDS OF LIMBURGER CHEESE, PLEASE!" and the lady behind the counter goes, "Sir, I'm afraid this is a library." So the gorilla looks embarrassed and *whispers*: "I'm...

    Why Did Boom! Change Their Paper?

    Wouldn't call that sad at all. You may know i've been actively involved the last few months with the move to keep another one of my areas of fandom, One Life to Live, from cancellation and supporting the dying genre of the daytime drama. As i've been defending the genre i've commented on how...

    The Muppet Man BioPic

    Just don't see this (particular) film being made. I'm sure Henson bought it mainly to keep it out of other studios' hands. They may eventually embark on a Henson bio but it would be another script (the "Henson" script from a year ago or a whole other one entirely). Despite the attention it's...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    The concept of "The Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever Made" is an idea that had been kicked around since the mid-80's (the first time fans heard about it was when Jerry Juhl talked about it in an interview i did with him ten years ago) The idea grew out of real life frustration within Henson Company...

    New Kermit Music Video & Single

    How long is the full version of the video? After nearly a month, i FINALLY heard Radio Disney play the song today.

    Top Annoying Misnaming People Do

    In all fairness, i'm sure Kermit genuinely thought he may have been the inspiration for the Frog's name and not looking to seek fame. He just turned out to be wrong (and probably a bit hurt to find out it wasn't the case)

    More info on the Jimmy Fallon appearance...

    Hmm...that's 11 Muppets - wonder if they're singing with Jimmy (or another human celeb) or if there's one more surprise Muppet...

    Has anyone seen Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody on the Disney Channel yet?

    Yeah, that's bugged me for quite some time - the lack of Muppets on Disney Channel whether it be commercials or interstitials. There were six of those station IDs with different Muppets and even though DC STILL does those promos with different Disney celebs, it's been years since they broke out...

    TV Alert: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christrmas reairs December 20

    Wow - i'm actually finding myself enjoying watching VMX more now than i did when it first aired - despite criticisms about pop-culture jokes dating it, the film holds up very well seven years later. Really glad to see it back among the holiday programming.

    TV Alert: Letters to Santa reairs December 4 and 19

    As mentioned upthread, it is unusual for a major network to show two airings of the same holiday special twice in a month. Last night's ratings pretty much demonstrate why... LTS was not only the lowest rated network show in its timeslot (2.30 million viewers) but also the lowest rated...

    Has anyone seen Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody on the Disney Channel yet?

    Okay a while ago someone posted that Bohemian Rhapsody would be shown on Disney Channel but weren't sure if it would be USA, UK or both? Anyone from either country see it there yet - i sure haven't seen it on USA Disney Channel as of yet (nor for that matter have i ever heard I Believe on...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    From that interview: "So there'll be four issues of human guest stars — Hamlet, Sherlock Holmes, Cleopatra and Victor Frankenstein. Plus a couple of pages featuring Galileo which I'm probably far too pleased about for my own good." Hands up, everyone - besides myself, how many people upon...

    The New Movie: The Muppets

    Ooh - that's something i hadn't even thought of - movie merchandise! Lots of fun possibilities there - i can just picture a "The Cheapest Muppet Shirt Ever Made" T shirt! (Of course that would also probably keep it from going for "Fraggle Rock" prices!) And think of all the promotional...

    Beaker's language in the news

    I was again thinking of what i would have done had it been my high school and the kind of wilder rebellious person i was back then. I would have rallied people to replace "Meep" with another word like "Murray" (the last name of that high school's principal) - there's no way they could ban the...

    "For Better Or For Worse" comic strip comes to an end

    Pearls Before Swine is actually my fave currently running strip - but there are a lot of running gags and such so if a paper starts running it somewhere i can see why it may take a while for someone to get into it - you may want to check out one of the anthology books of strips (which your...
