Sent in some corrections before, gonna try and list them all so they'll be here for future updates.
#2 Connie Stevens: this isn't a correction, but I know most people haven't seen "Ain't Misbehavin'". You said it must have been taped in the second half of the season, and you're right- the...
Where did Ray Charles' version of "Oh What a Beautiful Morning" and Helen Reddy's song "Wonder Child" come from? I've heard them both on MC Radio but don't know what productions they were in. They're solos, too, so I don't know if there were Muppets in the scenes or not. My only guess for...

Coburn also appeared in the recent BBC special "I Love the Muppets".
His cameo in The Muppet Movie was as this: Kermit, as he walks up to the El Sleazo Cafe, hears a commotion inside. A man (Coburn) is thrown out of the cafe into a row of garbage cans.
Kermit (to the man): "Uh, rough...

I CAN'T DECIDE!!!!!!!!!!
Can I declare a tie? Use a lifeline? Call a friend?

Quick question for ya, Ken:
Is the Swinetrek going to include the pay phone? I remember it being brought up before (it might've even been me who did it) but I don't recall what was said about it.
Also, what did you mean by "the Swinetrek is even longer than the Kitchen when fully...
James Coburn, who guest starred on TMS early in Season Five and had a cameo in The Muppet Movie, died yesterday.
James Coburn: 1928-2002
James Coburn, the tough-guy actor known for his roles in The Magnificent Seven and Our Man Flint, died Monday at age 74 of a heart attack. Coburn was...

The Great Santa Claus Switch (where he gets his name)

Thog and Sweetums. I like some of the smaller monsters too, like Boppity, Gloat, Miss Kitty, the Green Frackle. Really I like all the monsters except for Carl.

Ken-
Some accessory questions for the announced (and pushed back) figs:
BOP Fozzie- well, you've already made him, so he's gotta come out sometime. My question is, what would he come with? My vote goes for the blue octopus from the best-remembered edition of BOP.
Marvin Suggs- how...
Bad Andy-
Nope, Koozebane was announced for Series Six. Originally it was supposed to be for Series Five when it was first announced.

Fozzie Bear, the episode you're thinking of is Glenda Jackson. Personally I loved that episode, but to each his own.
I also think some of the first season episodes aren't funny, like Lena Horne and Peter Ustinov. I like the Sandy Duncan episode though.
The Joan Baez isn't very funny IMO-...
Beautiful Day was in the goodnights of the Milton Berle episode (though he didn't appear in the body of the episode). I think he was in the goodnights of the Joel Grey episode too (you can just barely see him on the right, when Fozzie moves his head).
He was also in the UK Spot of the Zero...
I'm surprised that I first learned of this news through the Palisades website and not through here. This is front-page Muppet news if I ever saw any!
It's a good day in the Muppet world.
Good day in my world too. I've got between one and three major assignments due at the beginning of...
You're talking about the episode of TMS, right, not the Julie Andrews special with the Muppets?
If so, does this monster also have horns and is he wearing a bowler hat? That's the only small purple monster I can think of from Julie's closing number. He is called Luncheon Counter Monster...
Ken, I have a question
Don't I always?
You said over on the Palisades board, when you posted the comparison shots of the Lab and the Kitchen, that the Swinetrek is even longer than the Kitchen when fully extended. What do you mean, extended? What is going to extend? Would it be possible...
Luke-
It does seem to be the main reason fans want the Koozebane to be made
Remember there are those of us who are really passionate about getting our hands on some aliens.
And as to the stage playset, I must admit I'm still on the side of making it bigger to house the other playsets. If...
Favorite parts:
Superman: Look, the guy’s a close friend and all, but I just don’t see him singing. I can hear him now. (Deep broody voice.) "I am vengeance. I am the night. I…don’t…sing!"
Batman (entering with sheet music) : Rowlf…here’s the sheet music for the song I’m going to sing...
I don't remember Scooter playing any guitar in TMS
Just the one number, "Six String Orchestra", in which Scooter fantasizes about being a music star, and he's joined in the choruses by the Electric Mayhem.
