Could just be a generic decision on the part of making the trailer, could be the reason that we haven't gotten a straight answer as to the original opening titles. I mean really, if the answer is no, would you want to tell the fans BEFORE they buy it? The longer we get no answer on this, the...

Six weeks and we still don't even know about those opening titles yet. You'd think they'd have made a decision by now. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Never thought I would live to see Boober compared to Kurt Kobain. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

The "Least Favorite..." thread is still around, so I figured I'd restart this one. Mine: -"Change of Address"- need I explain? -"The Bells of Fraggle Rock"- leave it to Jim Henson & co. to use the archetype of a failed hero story as a meditation on faith and religion, with an ending that...

There was a thread on this over a year ago, but since I can't find it... It's pretty obvious that Wembley is the youngest of the five Fraggles, since the others are often explaining things to him, and even among the five he's sometimes referred to as "poor little Wembley" whenever bad tidings...

Guess which two people I'm jealous of. Now, can you two tell me under what circumstances you saw these people in person, and if you actually MET any of them face to face (it would seem that Kimp has). Also, what anecdotes do you have about meeting any of these folks? Share! Share! I have...

I forgot to ask this question of Steve Whitmire at MuppetFest. It seems that Wembley's pupils can move virtually 360 degrees. In any case, they don't move in a single straight path, which indicates that it's not the eyeballs themselves moving on an axis (b/c for the eyeballs to move in more...

Hmm, I would've expected people to be chomping at the bit to try and explain this, but it seems that no one is brave enough to try and explain this as anything other than a continuity error. Only explanation I can come up with is that silly creatures aren't blind to Uncle Matt but simply to the...

If people were covered with fur, would they wear clothes? No Robin Williams or Sean Connery jokes please. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Was re-reading and I wanted to make some small corrections/edits: I just realized that since Floyd is the lead singer, he should be in the middle. Janice smacks him with the guitar and she plays left-handed, that's why she should be on his left. Let's say that on the bottom riser, from...

Completely restored... meaning inclusion or original opening credits or what? I know that restored & remastered is stock DVD promo talk for what's done to the original prints, but hopefully they'll be restored to their original version in total. Guess we'll find out from GelflingWaldo when...

IMO, the problem with Steve Martin in his episode was the fact that he just did his usual stand-up routine on the show, rather than something new in which he would've interacted more with the Muppets. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Yes I am. The bare bones are filled in (i.e. what acts and where they go, and a basic backstage plot), now I just have to fill in some of the more specific details. Don't know when it'll be up, though. Also doing some work with Barry Lee on a Mel Brooks outline, and I'd love to have my...

Don't know when the next one will be. Working on my Tennessee Ernie Ford outline, and also doing some work with Barry Lee on a Mel Brooks outline. We are now on a new page (grrr, you beat me to it), so here's the updated fanfic list: Billy Joel , 8/21/02 Sammy Davis Jr., 9/21/02 Rex...

Sorry, miswrote. I meant the four I mentioned previously. Close enough. I meant that he could make his own fires cheaper rather than buy them. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Considering there was only one sketch on the show that did, I probably won't. Dr. Teeth sings all. Just those. They all do. That was just a figure of speech. As to spells, I haven't decided. Maybe he turns them into something else than what they are. Yes. And OhBoy Bird...

Burl Ives, 5/31/05 David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I can very easily imagine Burl Ives on The Muppet Show. For those unfamiliar with Ives, he was a well-known folk singer as well as an accomplished actor, taking the Best Supporting Actor Oscar in 1958 for "The Big Country", the same year he reprised the role of Big Daddy in the film of "Cat on...

This is great stuff, Princeton, but I do have one suggestion- there are only six sketches in this fanfic, and if I recall, the smallest number of sketches in any Season One episode is 8 (the Ethel Merman episode), the most 14 (Paul Williams and I believe Harvey Korman episodes), usually there...

Well, I'm not doing a Shirley Jones outline, but TravellingMatt did one: http://forum.muppetcentral.com/showthread.php?t=4345 David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
