    Whatnot Howard

    :rolleyes: That's possible, since the PSA came after MTI. Maybe this is a pig mupppet that they've remade sevaral times for whenever it is needed.

    Whatnot Howard

    when I saw MCM, I was sure I'd seen Howard the Pig in a muppet production before, now after I looked through scarecroe's site, I know where he came from. Howard was designed for a Odyssey PSA concerning the use of V-chips in TVs to prevent children. In the PSA, Kermit gets trampled by 3 pigs...

    Edgiest Muppet

    It's like I said before, Pepe is the exact opposite of Kermit: He's a sea animal, Kermit is an amphibian. Kermit is shy around Piggy, Pepe flirts shamelessly with anything in a skirt. Kermit refused to lend his image to a chain of frog leg retaraunts, Pepe hawked LJS shrimp without a...

    A possible Muppet Movie topic

    Well actually, alot of characters from the original muppet show have been either postponed or discontinued now that Palisades has gotten the movie and TV licences. Beauregard was on e of the postponments, as well as a "Plantet Koozebane" playset with reporter Kermit.

    Mah Na Mah Na contraversy

    Well some people tend to believe you're not a real Muppet fan unless you have the urge to "do do do do do" everytime someone says "Phenomenon."

    Bill Baretta Appreciation Thread

    Wow, what glowing comments, the other performers must be jealous they don't get the same kind of compliments.

    Carroll Spinney

    Have we ever seen him outside of the Big Bird Costume? I was watching Sesame Street the other day, and it occurs to me I have no idea what he looks like. I have no idea what Eric Jacobson looks like either, but I am not inclined to worry about that yet.

    Bill Baretta Appreciation Thread

    We talk a whole lot about other Muppet Performers, but there hasn't been much said about their next-to-newest performer, Bill Baretta. Bill is, in my opinion, an asset to the JHC. He is candid, funny, and brings an undeniably wonderful energy to all his characters. Pepe is just a rod puppet but...

    Frazzle

    Yeah, Frazzle never went. He's jsut a one-note character, and seeing as he hasn't got as much personality as other Sesame Street characters, he gets left out alot.

    The guy who lived in Fozzie's finger

    Well, since Fozzie was only plying a suporting character in MTI, they had to give him something to play off of, that still makes him funny, hence Mr. Bimbo. I don't understand why people complain about the post Oz Fozzie so much. I don't think they were trying to make him into a half-wit...

    Question about Muppets Take Manhattan

    Well, they did have Janice as a special guest Muppet Baby in the final season. The same season Bean Bunny also began appearing on the show. Baby Janice was still a little older than the core group, which is eerie, cause however old Piggy is now, Janice is still older.

    New characters or the old ones

    I think what they're doing now is just fine. They don't withold characters from us out of spite, they do it becasue they only have certain muppeteers on hand at given times, and they play the characters they're familiar with first. Granted this provides for a scanty group: Steve Whitmire -...

    You know it be great to see Mel Brooks direct and write a Muppet Movie...

    Well it's true he maintains a close relationship wit the Muppets, but when you really think about it, there's a huge difference between what is canon between Mel Brooks movies and what's canon in a Muppet movie, there are just some things he'd meddle in that aren't to be meddled. Probably why he...

    Why did they cancel Muppets Tonight so quickly?

    Muppets Tonight was one of the henson projects that would apologise for itself. they weren't allowed to use Frank Oz characters so Fozzie and Piggy would be used as guest stars. They didn't feel right putting Kermit in the lead, so they used Clifford. Not that there's anything wrong with...

    Why did they cancel Muppets Tonight so quickly?

    I blame it on the fact that it was a moving target. They always changed the day and time of the show week after week, and there's no way the ratings could improve. Not to mention it was amidst a lousy block of programming.

    Muppet Time

    All I remember from this series was that Robin would introduce each segment with "It's Muppet Time!" I probably only saw 3 of the segments. ne was with silent monster-like characters, the other two were with the two little pigs. The two little pigs were preschool age ougs that looked exactly the...
