    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    I guess Brain had the idiot ball or something. I dunno... it seems like they purposely made the smartest kid on the show forget something obvious for the sake of a non-plot. Seriously... the entire episode feels like it was rushed out to fill a quota. It has a concept and almost a plot, but...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    The episode where George invents his own language was on today, and it drives me nuts. Of ALL the characters on the show that should have known that George was basically doing American Sign Language, a crude version of it anyway, was Brain. Brain the character that corrects every other...

    How Disney Can Reinvigorate the Muppets

    That's the paradox. It wouldn't cut it on a regular network in prime time, but Disney would force it to be tween oriented on their own network, which is the best place to put it. Remember The Muppet Show- syndicated-5 year run that ended on Jim's wishes. JHH-NBC Primetime-9 of 12 aired...

    Disney's New Muppets Logo

    That's the hard thing with the first title. You can't tell if it was the entire brand or just the name of the movie. I'd tend to think only movie specific stuff, like kiddy book adaptions, would have the ...Again byline. I give them credit for one thing, though. New posers. They just use...

    How Disney Can Reinvigorate the Muppets

    I just hope after this next film there is a show and a great place to put it so it can thrive. The problem, and I've been saying this for years, is that there's no way it would fit on a primetime slot on a major TV network. The Jim Henson Hour and Muppets Tonight both failed to get an...

    Disney's New Muppets Logo

    I wish I had an example of the packaging they have for the movie related merchandise. But I opened my figure set and tossed the packaging away (though I liked the interior with Muppet eyes, but that could have been done so much better), and I didn't get a chance to get the Valentines last year...

    Man claiming to be "Cookie Monster" steals valuable Golden Cookie

    uh... Yeah... . All I'm gonna say. Sounds like the crook's heart is in the right place, though.

    Disney's New Muppets Logo

    We've had it for 2 years now, I don't see why there really needs to be much more discussion on the matter. It's an okay logo. It's okay for the minimalistic look they're going for in merchandising, I guess. But it just makes me thing of this... We really liked the first couple series of...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Which would be funny, but I just noticed the Wanted poster in the Entrainment Weekly photo shoot. So that's not going to happen.

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Dude, as long as the plot for a Muppet Movie doesn't have the words "Classic retelling" in them, I'm ecstatic. I hope all Muppet Fandom will agree with me on that.

    The Muppet Show Comic Book: The Four Seasons Graphic Novel

    It wasn't in the comic store's new releases, that's for sure. I go to the comic store weekly, and this is the first I've seen of it.

    The Muppet Show Comic Book: The Four Seasons Graphic Novel

    It is with absolutely no fanfare that Marvel has released the final Muppet Show comics story arc in Graphic Novel format. Seriously. Beats the heck out of me, I just accidentally discovered it today. So for those who haven't caught the 4 issue series or just waiting to collect it in volume...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Something tells me there's going to be a LOT of Lampshade Hanging on the evil twin plot. That's going to be worth looking forward to.

    From Broadway With Love

    Taking filming the movie out of the equation... well, look at it this way. Eric does most of Frank's old roles except Cookie Monster, who's played by Dave. Steve Whitmire has a great deal of Jim's roles, but Bill does the other half, and Eric was Guy Smiley on occasion. Just because one...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Jeez. Kermit sure has a lot of doppelgangers... Constantine is now added to the list of Kismet the Toad and Kermoot. And if anyone wants to count the various other Kermits that wanted T-Shirts. Pretty decent, albeit cliche, plot line. I like that they're a touring show. But hopefully too...

    How Disney Can Reinvigorate the Muppets

    Any company besides Disney would have just dumped them in their vault, sat on them for eternity, and we wouldn't have even got a T-shirt out of it. If JHC continued to own them, we'd see a long delayed DTV movie that would get a mixed reception, and then dozens of projects that don't go...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    I'm going to take this moment to remind everyone who posts videos on this thread that we have a specific thread dedicated specifically to international segments. It's located here. http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/international-skits-on-youtube.30514/ It's lonely and needs company.

    Weekly Box Office and Film Discussion Thread

    Would a simple eye roll and "Of course there is?" going to be disappointing? I really don't feel the need to go full on Donald Duck rage, even though I'm in a very ticked off mood due to personal stuff. For some reason, people actually liked this movie. Sony doesn't have a track record of...

    Cartoon Network Greenlights Two Series

    The ones that scream and cry are the older fuddy duddies that refuse to give something new a chance and the ones that say old sucks are too young to have actually seen it and don't have a nostalgic imprint. I never watched Transformers much as a kid, so I am very open to non-Michael Bay...
