    Fraggle Skinny Dipping: The Fraggle Five, plus the whelps I've saddled them with in my fanfics, get nekkid and do what they do best. This could be an illustration for Red Versus Blue, except for the discrepancy in Sage And Poncle's ages. (Sage is the blue-green kid, and Poncle is the...

    I can imagine a trip through the Muppet Theater in the same vein. Oooh, that would be sweet.

    Why isn't Skeeter a Muppet?

    Give me time and I'll write that into a fanfic. My timeline's moving in that direction. Hmm... I don't know if I could get Red into a Silly Creature gym, but I bet Skeeter would go spelunking...

    Why isn't Skeeter a Muppet?

    No, no, no. Skeeter will be in one of those top-row arches that is currently blanked out. I know she will. I saw it in my tea leaves. Well, OK, I don't drink tea. I saw it in the half-melted cubes at the bottom of my soda cup. Seriously, wouldn't it be cool if that happened? But those blank...

    Fraggle Fic: A Wandering Heart

    Thanks, glad you like it. Jan's always been close to his family, and even when he's not with them they're in his thoughts. Maybe a little too much so, hence the journey. Circle K? He didn't find a path to a convenience shop. Heh, some people may be able to guess where he is. Coda takes...

    Fraggle Fic: A Wandering Heart

    And now for a real update... ***** A Wandering Heart Part 10: Left Turn at Albuquerque by Kim McFarland ***** Fraggles bustled about in one of the many large, open caverns that surrounded the colony Janken was visiting. Unlike most caves, these were floored with dirt instead of stone, and...

    Fraggle Fic: A Wandering Heart

    No problem. Janken doesn't mind my sharing his postcards. He figures that postcards are meant to be ready by anyone anyway. If he has anything private to say he writes a letter and sticks it in an envelope. (The first letter he sent wasn't read for weeks because nobody understood that they were...

    Fraggle Fic: A Wandering Heart

    (A "bonus feature", posted a bit early. Jan doesn't actually doublespace between paragraphs--not enough room on a postcard for that--but I can't do indents on these boards.) ***

    Segal Might Love The Classic Muppets...

    I swear, it looks like there are Fraggles in the background. I know that can't be the case because those are Henson properties, not Disney, but I can still dream.

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    Whoopee cushions strapped onto shoes. Now THAT is Fozzie. And it makes "whoopee shoes" even more appropriate. Fozzie's legs still look kinda long to me. Like the bottom of his feet ought to be where the top of the shoes are.

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    "The Moopets" is a Muppets tribute troupe in Reno that Fozzie has been performing with.

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    A random thought: unless I've missed something, we haven't seen The Moopets' version of Gonzo. It would make me very happy to see Trevor the Gross in that role. And it would also amuse me to no end to find out that the Miss Piggy analogue was a female impersonator. Sow impersonator? Drag...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    I believe that Goelz said that the nipple gag came from something he gave the Disney folks as an example of that Muppets wouldn't do, and they turned right around and used it. For me the nipple gag itself wouldn't have been so bad, but Pepe's hysterical reaction sank it through the floor. If...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    One gag about fart shoes won't ruin it for me, but I think "whoopee shoes" would be funnier, more in-character for Fozzie, and more Muppetty in general. It's nowhere near as bad as the nipple gag from MWoO, which honestly makes me cringe, but that was the first thing that came to mind when I...

    "The Muppets" Official Movie Trailer

    The fart joke didn't bug me so much. If Kermit tells Fozzie that that's the kind of lowbrow humor that plays in Reno, but not the Muppet Theater, I'll be good with it. Was it just me or did Fozzie's legs appear unusually long in that shot? The one gag that bugged me was Walter on the electric...

    Been a bit stressed lately. That leads to odd artwork... F. Habilis Troglodytes: Most Muppets are caricatures of real animals. Kermit is a caricature of a frog, Fozzie is a caricature of a bear, Miss Piggy... you get the idea. Fraggles, on the other hand, are abstract creatures. I like to...

    "The Muppets: Being Green" Teaser Trailer Online

    That was a joke. Based on their joke about "Not in Swedish." Pretending to be all outraged for a silly reason ala Sam the Eagle. For heaven's sake, I know that the Swedish Chef speaks Mock Swedish. If there's another meaning for Swedish that doesn't relate to Sweden, I'm unaware of what it is.

    Ages of the five Fraggles

    As of the TV series, I think of Mokey as 17, Gobo and Red as 16, Boober as 15, and Wembley as 12. That's the equivalent of human ages, that is. 1 human year = 7 dog years, so who knows how long Fraggle "years" are? They may live faster or slower than we do. By the time of my fics, they've...
