    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Wham? People are sick of Wham's music at Christmastime? Maybe there's something I don't know about the band, but when I think Wham, I think either "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" or "Careless Whisper", not really Christmastime musical standards. And as for Mariah Carey... That's the surprise I...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Okay, while I don't want to get dragged into the political aspect of things... Just one single point on Santa Claus. Didn't the tradition of the character start with Saint Nicholas (however it may have been originally spelled) or Sinterclaus from Dutch culture? As for who would want to eat...

    Your Thoughts: Christmas at Muppet Central

    Something I would suggest... On the "Now Playing" list, you have the song/sketch's title, followed by the characters or group responsible for singing each entry, and then I would recommend replacing the link to "Buy this album" with the source where each song/sketch comes from as that would...

    Your Thoughts: Christmas at Muppet Central

    I'm loving the customary classics and new additions to this year's musical merrython. Also, nice touch adding jingling bells to the standard Radio 1-2-3 jingle. Maybe similar nods can be added for next year's traditions like a short music vamp of Rainbow Connection for the Jim Henson/Steve...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    You know... It's things like the video D'Snowth posted above and the currently hyped Hanukkah episode of The Ghost and Molly McGee on Disney that make me wonder, has Hanukkah started even earlier than normal this year? Then again, my mind already kind of considers Hanukkah as the wintertime...

    Your Thoughts: Muppet Central Radio on TorontoCast, TuneIn, Apple, Amazon and Google

    Ah, Monday November 29 is the start of the Muppet Christmas musicthon. Sorry, it's just that because of years past I tend to think of Black Friday as (Kermit) Green & Red Friday so I thought that's when it always starts as a default date in my mind. Thanks for answering my questions Phil.

    Very Merry Muppet Christmas on Freeform Monday December 6, 2021 and Thursday December 23, 2021

It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie (2002) will air as part of Freeform's 2021 25 Days of Christmas programming block. There'll...

    Your Thoughts: Muppet Central Radio on TorontoCast, TuneIn, Apple, Amazon and Google

    Okay, couple questions. First of all, isn't the song sung by the frogs from The Muppets at Walt Disney World titled "Knee Deep"? So where/when/how is it now named "Frog Talk"? Secondly, shouldn't the station have been switched to all manner of Muppet Christmas music as of yesterday until...

    The Oh-So-Permanent Thanksgiving Thread

    Today was truly a good day. Though I could post this in the "What Made You Smile?" thread, I'm posting it here. Watched the 95th annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, except for the first one, I liked the other Broadway musicals featured this year. Okay, other than Nellie based on name only...

    Christmas: Are they shoving it down our throats too early?

    Given that Food Network's 2021 season of Holiday Baking Championship started on November 1, the day immediately after Halloweeen… Yes, they're shoving it down our throats way too early. The thing is the tagline for this season is "Fall in love with Holiday Baking Championship" to which I...

    The new What Made You Smile Today thread

    Posting today, this happened last Thursday. Went to a park near/between my home and my second brother's home where my family had food from Wendy's as a sort of picnic lunch for the benefit/enjoyment of my two-year and older niece. Since she, my sister and mom were there first, my niece was all...

    Question about Sesame Street PVC Figures

    So I was curious and did a bit of history searching at the Muppet Wiki regarding the various lines of Sesame PVC's. Basically, there are two questions I have. How do the Tyco PVC figures compare heightwise to the Applause figures? How do the Minikin Heimo PVC figures compare heightwise to...

    Looking for a Replacement DVD for Beetlejuice Animated Series

    Hi, I'm unhappy because of something I suspected just finally proving true. Unfortunately I need a replacement for the Beetlejuice Animated Series DVD set, specifically, Disc 12 or Season 4 Disc 8, the very last one from the set. If anyone here has a replacement/spare they'd be willing to sell...

    You might be an obsessed Muppet fan if...

    While watching Ms. Peregrin's Home for Peculiar Children, they include the song "Run, Rabbit, Run" and you immediately recognize it from when :o was trying to save a group of Muppet rabbits from a Muppet farmer. Farmer: Maybe I'll settle for bear stew instead.

    Halloween is just around the corner

    Gotta say I'm enjoying myself immensely listening to MCR's Halloween music scarathon, especially since there are some tracks I don't know the Muppet source of in spite of searching at Muppet Wiki. :batty: :)

    Tales from the Marvelous World: "A Deadly Romance"

    This was a nice oneshot, perfect for the Halloween section of the town's fanfic library. FYI: The scene in question from Macbeth is Act IV, Scene 1. Agatha "Agnes" Harkness and Uncle Deadly, a pairing not thought of, and yet it works or at least it could in the vast infinity of universes viewed...
