    Nanny, the Unseen Matriarch

    I don't think we were ever meant to know. I think it was supposed to be part of this child-like view of adults. The "muppet-like" adults were always shown, but "human" adults we only ever saw their arms and legs. To be at the level of the kids, you know? Hope that makes sense.

    Character Ages?

    Hmm.. I think Uncle Matt was so used to being in "Outer Space," coming back home was a frustrating experience for him because everything had changed. I think he even found "Outer Space" to be superior in some ways (I remember his line "This is nothing compared to a used car lot at sunset"). But...

    Muppophobia?

    Psst. I'm a "she" ;)

    How is a Fraggle born? Where do Fraggles come from?

    Baby Fraggles come from the Radish patch, of course! ;) Wait, sorry, my bad. They didn't even know about radishes until Uncle Matt found them :P I always assumed the "fab 5" were in their mid to late teens. If they were kids then I don't think they'd go off and live alone in "apartments" and...

    Muppophobia?

    I admit I'm afraid of the characters in Dark Crystal - I saw it once and I won't see it again! I know there's a muppet I'm forgetting (probably one of the monsters) but generally I'm more nervous about "dummy" puppets. Oh, and that hand puppet from Mr. Rogers. She is seriously creepy...

    Well said :) Now I'll back off before I say anything else stupid :x

    The Videogame Thread

    Hey, I played the NES, too ;) Didn't have an Atari but I know the NES took many an hour from my life. My sister and cousins were crazy for Super Mario, I can still recall playing that game at my grandma's house and finally beating Bowser. I just figured there was probably a number of people...

    The Videogame Thread

    I got a DS for Christmas, and admittedly I haven't really been playing it. I only have two games and I'm bored with them XD I hope to get my hands on Mario Kart DS soon, though. It'll bring back memories of when I played Super Mario Kart as a kid (yeah, I'm just that old). Speaking of Super...

    Retro Commercials--What's the Attraction?

    When I watch old tapes of what my dad recorded for my sister and I in the 80s, the commercials become a PART of the experience, you know? Like, watching a Christmas special - it's not the same unless you see an ad for "My First Sony" or "Krispy Kritters cereal" (or is it with a "C"? Can't...

    Saturday Morning memories thread

    My Saturdays were great - I'd get up at 6 am with a bowl of Cheerios or Kix (my mom never let me have the sugary stuff :/) and watch Looney Tunes. After that it was Muppet Babies, Pee Wee's Playhouse, etc. and around 11 am or noon I'd go over to a friend's house and watch Saved By The Bell ;D...

    Favorite Character on Fraggle Rock

    What, no love for Doc? He's adorable, and the grandfather I wish I'd had :D -Red - She gets some of the funniest lines, is strong and doesn't feel she has to act girly or how other Fraggles might think she should. Very much an individual. I always pair her up with Gobo because I'm weird ;) I...

    Imagine if the Muppet Babies were involved in another Mario Kart clone...

    That would rock and I'd buy it in a heartbeat - provided it was available on the DS :)

    Big-Fat-Ugly-Bug-Faced-Baby-Eating O'Brian

    Hmm. I'm sure she'd be listed SOMEWHERE in the credits. Check there :) Or maybe imdb.com?

    What was your first Fraggle Rock episode?

    I don't think I even watched FR when it first aired (wasn't it an HBO thing or something?) - so I completely missed the boat. If I saw it in reruns or on a tape after, I honestly don't remember. So, the first episode I saw was the first episode of the first DVD of the first set... assuming :)

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    The Great Muppet Caper is my favorite, along with Christmas Carol, but if I had to chose, TI is OK, too. Actually, I think I meant Christmas Carol when I wrote that. I'm kinda out of it today. I guess I want something with the "early maturity" and isn't too gimmicky/parody/childish-y. I hope...

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    I admire your faith, and I will certainly keep a lookout for news :)

    Disney Enlists Segel & Stoller for new Muppets movie

    As long as we can get something as golden as Muppet Treasure Island, I will be happy :) But please, nothing like In Space or Wizards of Oz (I really didn't care for those).

    Any Comic Book Readers Here On Muppet Central?

    I read Archie Comics up until about 7 years ago. Now I just read manga.
