    Kermit's Swamp Years

    Fox may be good at counter-programming...but the only catch is...aren't people getting bored with watching programs about counters? (Count Von Count nonwithstanding!)

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    Whew...caught up on this thread now! (I tend to read the longest threads last after i've had a chance to catch up on the others) Scarecroe: Since your question re names was never completely answered, you and Gorgon are both correct - there were two characters on TMS named Mary Louise...the...

    Gorch on E

    Candice Bergan has hosted the show more than once...and she's hosted two shows with a Christmas theme! Last night was Christmas 1976 so if you watched and didn't see Muppets, don't worry - you want to watch for Christmas 1975 w/ Candace. (Still last night's was a classic ep! The great...

    The Jim Henson Hour

    I can't go into a lot of elaboration at the time of typing since i'm getting set to leave out the door, but JHH is one of my all time fave projects to come out of Henson Company. Even though it wasn't without its flaws, it seemed like the whole sense of creativity and experimentation was...

    Ken! So nice to see you checking in... i had been wondering whatever happened to you!

    Rowlf on Sesame?

    Keep in mind that those Song of Nine type sketches were from Sesame's first season (1969) so some of the Muppets used for previous Henson projects made cameo appearances...heck Cookie Monster & Grover were part of their "trunk puppet" monsters before they got their personalites/names! Other...

    Count Blah or Count Von Count?

    Count Chocula is the Count for me!:)

    The new Muppet movie and TV series

    I'd guess more characters for Kevin is a given - since Clifford was such a huge presence on Muppets Tonight, it didn't give Kevin much of a chance to develop any other major characters...so now that Clifford won't be the lead, they can work on getting some new characters for Kev...and given his...

    Nigel

    Yes, that's true, Jim played him in Sex & Violence and Connie Stevens episode and then John Lovelady voiced him in Twiggy/Kaye Ballard episodes - plus i believe (going from memory here) the puppeteer credits on The Muppet Show Album lists Nigel as a John character (even though Sax & Violence is...

    Kermit's Swamp Years

    Just because Kermit "meets" certain characters in The Muppet Movie doesn't necessairily mean that their paths may not have previously crossed before. How many of us remember every waiter who's taken our order since childhood or the face of every passerby on the street?

    Gorch on E

    E!'s not showing the episodes in order, and a lot of the shows they've been showing were post Gorch shows...i don't think they've shown any episodes yet that the Muppets were originally in but were edited out of the E! showing. The Richard Pryor episode with the Drunk sketch is the only one...

    Greg the Bunny site

    Keep in mind that this particular site is devoted to Greg The Bunny's pre-Fox series career...the puppets have received some makeovers. ...and the amateurish look of the puppets is intentional - the idea of the show is that these are OBVIOUSLY puppets - but puppets with souls that live...

    This section felt lonely...

    Ya know, i see all these "BBB"'s and "SSS"'s here and i have this mental image in my head of a group of kids in the playground squared off in half facing each other with one group hissing at the other and the second group either blowing rasperries or doing that finger and the lips thingy...

    What Muppet Are You?

    Schala So both of us are former Fozzie's/Current Kermit's...and we're both major Scapers...hmmm... I wonder if being a Kermit/Fozzie combo means that we're ACTUALLY K&F's father in Great Muppet Caper!

    Greg The Bunny's "Worldview" already spreading

    Well, the concept of puppets as a special class of beings co-existing with us has already started to influence other media forms... There's a new commercial for Lipton (or maybe Nestea? I get them confused) with Al Roker reporting on puppets on strike! ...course not to say i don't blame...

    Help me please

    Snort also always reminded me of a "vampire Kermit" when i was a kid! Back then when i didn't know his name, i always thought of him as "Hermit" or "Hermie" (sometimes "Count Kermit"!) ...and unless i miss my guess, the record sleeve you're referring to is that AWESOME inner sleeve from The...

    I feel embarassed to ask this, but...

    I don't have it either but i can still help ya :) Unpaved is the older (60's-80's) episodes. 123 is from 1993 (Season 25 when they added the "around the corner" sets) on.

    What Muppet Are You?

    It's been awhile since i took the old quiz so i can't say for sure if it's the same one or not (some of the questions seemed familiar) but this time around i ended up as a Kermit whereas last time i was a Fozzie.
