    Speculation: Potential Sequel for "The Muppets"

    Not necessarily. Most of the major Muppets had an "origin story" in one of the movies. Take Rizzo--he's a good example b/c he wasn't a part of the original TMS gang. Granted, he had a tiny little role in GMC, but forget that for a second. His origin story was in TMTM. But that doesn't make...

    Target Muppets DVD Exclusive with 6 Muppet Show Episodes

    Is it really sold out? That is amazing news. I'm really hoping/believing that the DVD is going to sell like gangbusters. I love the idea of the bonus disc of Muppet Show eps! For whatever reason (money. Not writing my list clearly enough at Christmas. ;)) I don't have the TMS DVDs. So the...

    The "It's A Great Time To Be A Muppet Fan" Thread - No Pessimism Allowed!

    I've loved the Muppets since I was just a little kid. All my life, I've heralded new Muppet stuff with glee. It never took much to make me happy. I remember thinking that the viral vids and Muppets.com stuff were amazing gifts to Muppet fans--as they were! But now. NOW! Since last summer...

    TV Alert: Muppets on the Oscar Pre-Shows on E! and ABC

    THANK you!! I saw that post, and I spent the entire time I was cooking dinner that night forming a cutting response in my head. :) But I knew I wouldn't get around to actually posting it. Glad you did!!

    Eagerly awaiting video! In the meantime, Kermit is trending on Twitter. :D

    Video: Kermit and Piggy talk Oscars

    I think that Sherak fellow is a Piggy fan. He looked like he was having fun. :) I wonder if we'll get to see the whole interview instead of just the clips? (no such thing as enough Muppet interview, you know)

    Times when Boober was right

    In The Terrible Tunnel, the knots in the tails (ow) turned out to be lifesavers!

    Kermit and Miss Piggy to present award at Oscars

    Hm. I think I hope that they're not introducing the Cirque act. That would seem a little insulting, given the circumstances.

    Your Favourite Statler and Waldorf Moments

    I like the one in my sig. :sleep: *typing* :boo: "You know, they say if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!" :sleep: *shocked incredulity* :boo: I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from. Keep going. ...I think there's a 'k' in 'knucklehead.' Also, their bit in the OK...

    Favorite Team-up

    Boober and Wembley--hence my avatar. You could tell the people involved in the show really liked this pairing too. In the DVD extra about "Scared Silly," Jocelyn Stevenson refers to Boober as Wembley's best friend. I read an interview w/ Jerry Nelson somewhere in which he was asked something...

    When a Muppet says...

    Any time Sam says the word "weirdos." Traveling Matt's "The O-ther Daaayyy," at the beginning of his postcards. The postcards were never my favorite part of FR eps, but I do love his delivery of that line. Piggy's "An-y-one can see" in Bohemian Rhapsody. It's just so...Piggy! Fozzie's...

    The Muppets is now the top-grossing Muppet movie

    Maybe they got tired of Kermit joking that he can't go there for fear of being eaten. :D

    Kermit and Miss Piggy to present award at Oscars

    GOOD! Good, good, good, good! I'm going to have to stop thinking mean things about the Academy, now. :-)

    Statler & Waldorf’s Critics’ Choice Movie Awards Appearance!

    Pre-recorded video appearance + trying to interact with live hosts = bad idea.

    "The Muppets" UK Movie Promotions

    The clips from This Morning are on Youtube now. I was just so ridiculously happy to see Rizzo in this one. :)

    No Oscar Performance?

    People have been tweeting @TheAcademy about it, too. I don't know if it will help, but it can't hurt. The thing is, I heard murmurings about the best songs not being performed back when the long list of potential nominees was announced. The decision may not have anything to do with there only...

    UK: Muppets star in new Cravendale milk campaign

    Part of it's the "okay." I don't know why it's funny, but he can say just about anything, tack an "okay" on it, and it gains comic value. Also, you really need to find a way to get the above post out on the internet at large and start a meme. :)

    UK: Muppets star in new Cravendale milk campaign

    The first time I watched this, Pepe's inspired bit of randomness cracked me up. It reminded me of "I have some loose jello, ok," but even weirder. The second time I watched it, Kermit's face reacting to Pepe cracked me up even more. :)

    "MAN OR MUPPET" Nominated for Best Original Song OSCAR!

    Here it is again, a claim that there won't be performances. It's sounding more official all the time, although this still doesn't exactly name its sources: http://m.deadline.com/2012/02/exclusive-oscars-wont-perform-nominated-songs/ About raising that unholy fuss....
