I forgot to mention Steve Whitemire before. I guess I didn't think of him as an original performer, since basically the only characters he did on "The Muppet Show" were background characters. Rizzo didn't really become that popular until TMTM. But anyway, he's definately one of the...

I have to admit the info at the imdb website about Ivamicmum, or however you want to shorten it, is toatally incorrect. They still give Frank Oz credit as Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Animal and Sam and they leave out Jerry Nelson. Also, they said that Donald Ashton Faison would be in the movie...

Someone I forgot to mention before was Dave Goelz. It seems like him and Jerry Nelson are the only ones left anymore and even Jerry didn't do as much work as usual with that Christmas moive. I'm glad he's still voicing characters like Gonzo, Bunsen Honeydew and Waldorf.

Frank, definately. He's so great with Miss Piggy and Fozzie although his Animal used to scare the crap out of me. Lol. About Brian Henson, it is sort of hard to believe he's a Muppateer. In those intros he does for each episode, he seems so serious. It's hard to picture him throwing...

I totally forgot about that part. That was funny, especially the expression on Susan and Gordon's faces.
I also liked when Grover was talking to that kid about how Santa comes down the chimney and he says:
He comes down with his weindeer! (Perhaps he set the example for Baby...

Hmmm. Let me think. There were some good ones.
I thought it was funny that Ernie was worried about Bert losing his paper clips. Then he threw the one he found back on the floor.
The songs were great too. Especially "True Blue Miracle" and "Keep Christmas With You."
Also, I...

Dr. Bob, where have ya been, man? You left me alone on that operating table. I swear I'm just seconds away from switching doctors.
That ought to teach him! Maybe now, he'll shut up about them dang jelly beans!

That's okay. Like I said, I'll probably find out when I get the Rita Moreno episode on video, so I can wait a few months. Unless, I can download some files of Erin's Janice. Oh, well.

I heard that "Sax and Violence" thing at the "Animal's Jukebox" site. I thought it was Jim doing the voice because he sounded just like Kermit. In fact if I haven't read in the epguide that it was Nigel, I'd would have thought it WAS Kermit.
While I'm on the subject of performers...

That's one of my favorites. Unfortunately, my dang computer won't let me download it. I'd like to see some of those Muppet bloopers available for download, particularly when Kermit says he// and Rowlf says son of a b****.
Muppets From Space
There's something I have to mention here. I just received Muppets From Space today. There was a real tear-jerker near the end of that one. It was the part where Gonzo said goodbye to his friends. He told Kermit he was the best friend an alien could ever ask for. Heck, I...

Yeah. Thanks Warrick and Anathena. I have read about the original openings in the episode guides. I guess I would have liked to see Gonzo bash the 'O' and get blown up or something like that. But I guess unless I move to Germany, I'm just going to have to live with the horn gags...

Hmmm. I don't know, I already ordered "Muppets From Space" from Amazon, because I wanted to test how my credit card was working. I also received volume 5 from Time Life yesterday. So I'm pretty content for now.
You never know. I think they did a good job with "Muppets Tonight!"...

Yeah. I remember they used the two letters and one number when I watched the show and that was in the 80s. About that Oscar pic, I used to have one like that. (A stuffed Oscar, I mean.)
Reply
Actually, what I was thinking is maybe they were saving money by not restoring the origianal openings. It might have costed a lot for them to restore the UK skits. Well, thanks for replying anyway. It usually takes forever for people to answer my questions, so I'm glad you responded...
