Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
After watching the new episode all the way through, I'm reminded how even still to this day, Kath Soucie continues to be one of my top favorite voice actresses of all time - her voice work is always amazing, and I can see why NC is going nuts over Tuffy's re-enactment of the tunnel of fear.
Well, for years, Caroll had been saying he intended to stay with it until he couldn't physically hold Big Bird's four-and-a-half pound head up anymore. Well, we're past that now: now he's saying he intends to stay with it in some capacity (in this case, dubbing voices) until Season 50.
Y'know, at the risk of contradicting myself, I got to thinking about things, and I guess, in some small way, despite the writing, Steve could be partly at fault for Kermit's personality and performance, if only because I remembered an example that I'm sure @fuzzygobo and @JimAndFrank would...
The TV projects are debated, but KSY, VMX, and MOZ are definitely movies: they're all over an hour long, and were clearly cinematic productions; LTS was an hour-long TV special.
It's hard for me to rank each of the Muppet movies, but I guess I'll give it a try:
- THE GREAT MUPPET CAPER
- THE MUPPETS TAKE MANHATTAN
- THE MUPPET MOVIE
- MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND
- MUPPETS FROM SPACE
- THE MUPPET CHRISTMAS CAROL
- KERMIT'S SWAMP YEARS
- THE MUPPETS
- MUPPETS MOST WANTED

Anything Gonzo and Rizzo got themselves into? Animal going crazy and launching the rest of the Electric Mayhem into more contemporary, upbeat party music? The rats' reactions to Scrooge yelling at them? Piggy as Mrs. Cratchit forgetting which daughter is who?
I forget if I mentioned this before, I probably have, but I've always noticed the street sign is almost always pointing in the wrong direction: it points in the direction of whatever street would intersect Sesame Street, rather than Sesame Street itself.
I find KSY has a certain Film School 101 charm to it, and considering it came out a year after the Muppets inspired me to be a puppeteer (and it was the first Muppet movie we had since MFS), it felt like the kind of movie that I could probably make: small budget, but still enjoyable just the...
I forget if I said this before, but I feel like the sketches could work better if they were entirely separate in their own series - like if Channel Awesome did their own SNL or MADtv kind of thing? I feel like that could conceivably work, and it could certainly make the sketches a little more...
YES!!! I hate those like a sickness! Or, when they reply by just simply repeating your name! Gets on my nerves!
But anyway, I suddenly remembered something . . . anybody else remember all the way back in YT's early days, there was a friends system that was separate from subscribers? People...
Really, the only thing I enjoyed from this was the Crumby Picture bit (naturally).
I have to say, seeing Anthony Mackie felt awkward, mainly because I still remember him from that trainwreck Spike Lee movie SHE HATE ME (and all the while thinking of Spike's lackluster appearance directing THE...
Caroll's voice, sadly, hasn't been up to speed in recent years either - this is evident with the "Meet Julia" episode on YouTube, practically every other comment on that video is how Big Bird sounds "depressed," and we've commented here about how Oscar has been sounding weak lately.
What about...
I think one of the reasons why people don't like MOZ is because they were kind of expecting a tribute to the 1939 movie, rather than going closer to the original L. Frank Baum novels. Again, that's just one reason.
I'll agree the songs from MOZ were pretty forgettable, and by that token, the...
Kermit flying off the handle because someone else (Fozzie, Grover, whoever) is frustrating him is one thing; Kermit screaming about wishing he had never been born in a fit of sorrow and self-loathing (yeah, yeah, I know it's supposed to be a take on IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE) is kinda left field.
If it's humor, then I'd say a character who's prone to tantrums like Nostalgia Critic, or even Kanye West (though, to be fair, his tantrums got old quickly), then yeah, I'll agree that's funny. Still feels OOC for Kermit.
