This is for those of you who have Muppet Show DVDs - which is practically everyone - or is a subscriber of Disney+ - which is practically everyone. For years I have been trying to identify the various B/W photos that appear in 'The Muppet Show' - primarily those that can be seen in the dressing...

I’ve managed to obtain access to digital copies of the UK TV Times magazine which has the TV listings for ITV - I should make it clear that there were different regional editions for the various ITV franchises. Anyway, what I’ve discovered is that some of our thoughts on what happened with TMS...

Over the past four weeks or so I've been researching the original NZ air dates for TMS. This has been a pet-project of mine for some time only I've never been able to nail down the exact dates due to lack of access of resources. That changed when I stumbled across Papers Past, a web site from...

I posted this earlier on Muppet Wiki and got a response. Let’s see if I get a better response here. I’ve managed to work out ‘The Muppet Show’ airdates for an international broadcaster. But as to which international broadcaster… see if you can guess.

Here's a promo for the UK release of the Muppet Show Album as seen on LWT after the airing of the Milton Berle episode.

British fans, we need your help. We want to nail down the UK airdates for the Muppet Show. Thanks to Alex Taylor we know most, but not all. If there are British fans who can check TV listings for some of the ITV regions, that would be great. We have the listings for STV, Grampian, Border and...

Don't be confused about the title of this thread - it's the best I could come up with. What I thought I might do is post YouTube links to some of the songs/sketches that the Muppets either lip synched to or sang a cover version of. The idea with the latter is try and get (where possible) the...

Some of you may recall that I've previously mentioned a special compilation edition of the Muppet Show that aired during Easter 1977 in the UK. All I knew was that this was a compilation and that it featured guests Rita Moreno and Ethel Merman. I'm delighted to say this is no longer a mystery...

According to IMDB, Shari Lewis puppeteered on 'The Muppet Movie'. Muppet Wiki doesn't mention it. Does anyone know the accuracy of this?

Last Sunday was the 45th anniversary (sapphire) of the debut of TMS on British television. The series was produced by ATV (Associated Television) for the ITV (Independent Television) networks. In those days ITV was franchise based, with each different region of the UK having their own separate...

A week ago, ITV News did a report on the passing of Muppet Show Director Peter Harris. There are clips from 'Of Muppets & Men' and 'The Jim Henson Hour'. Lousie Gold also appears, having been interviewed by report Andy Bevan...

I've been doing some research this past week on the UK airdates of 'The Muppet Show' courtesy of some Scottish newspapers that are available for viewing through Google. What I've discovered is that some of our ideas as to what happened back then are completely wrong, while others have thrown up...

I've been doing some research over the last few weeks, and I've discovered that A Muppet Family Christmas first aired in New Zealand on Christmas Day 1988. However, the version that aired was the so-called 1989 NBC re-edit. I still have my off-air copy on VHS tape - it's commercial free and...

Sad to report that Australian singer Helen Reddy has died at the age of 78. She was of course a third season guest star on The Muppet Show. No official cause of death, however she did have Addison's disease and was diagnosed with dementia in 2015. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-54350248

Very sad to report that Diana Rigg, best remembered as Mrs Peel in the British TV series The Avengers, has died at the age of 82. We Muppet fans know her, of course, for her role as Lady Holiday in The Great Muppet Caper...
