    Muppets Haunted Mansion special coming to Disney+ on Friday October 8, 2021

    Yeah, well, I'm just reporting what I found at the Disney Wiki's article for the special regarding the Muppet cast. Then again, we could be surprised, there might be more Muppets added to the cast later on or that we spot showing up. For example, the toughpigs article made mention of a...

    The New What Made You Frown Today Thread

    About a month ago, I bought an external plug 'n' play DVD device for my laptop thinking I'd be able to watch discs from my library and maybe buy a few new additions. Yeah, no. Turns out the thing didn't work with my laptop for some unknown reason. So that's about $25-$26 down the drain...

    Due to my visual impairment, all I got from that trailer was a punnish reference to Mark Antony's speech from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar delivered by :concern: and a "Happy Halloween" I'm thinking was :rolleyes: Still, I'm awaiting this special as part of this year's Halloween programming...

    RIP Ed Asner

    While most may remember Ed Asner as Lou Grant from The Mary Tyler Moore Show, I'll remember him moreso as the voice of Santa Claus in Olive the Other Reindeer and J. Jonah Jameson from the 1990's Spider-Man animated series. As for his role as Lou Grant, I have this memory of him leading a group...

    ToughPigs hacked???

    Wow, that sounds like an epic artpiece especially given the scope of people and characters involved. Still have to find/contact people for the Muppet art project I've got in mind though.

    As :boo: once said, "Another day, another headache." So yesterday I was able to access toughpigs' front page with the new layout and read the article posted celebrating their 20th anniversary. What do I get when I come in a little earlier today? A site page that's set on asking me for "User...

    Muppets Haunted Mansion special coming to Disney+ on Friday October 8, 2021

    Another point favoring Fozzie portraying the Hatbox Ghost is the 2012 pin from the Muppets HM Doom Buggies set where :sympathy: and o are seen riding with HBG, at least according to the HM Wiki.

    Well... :o does have his manager, Irving Bizarre, which could double as a top hat ghost accessory as part of his outfit.Then again, since he portrayed Harold Zidler in VMMCM I can definitely picture him as the Hatbox Ghost. So, what other HM characters are the Muppets currently known of...
