    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    All this time, I thought that the full title for the Play-Along Video series was "Jim Henson's Play-Along Video", but today I was looking at some of the covers, and noticed that Jim Henson's name was not written as plural... It's actually "Jim Henson Play-Along Video". I never noticed before. I...

    Why isn't Wontkins in the Smithsonian?

    Maybe the puppet no longer exists (though most of the really early puppets do). Maybe he was lost or stolen. Maybe the Henson Company wanted to keep him in the archives. Or maybe he's not there because he doesn't like Wilkins Coffee...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I've been thinking about how in Muppets Most Wanted, Miss Poogy and Pops' roles seem more like them recycling characters than bringing them back for new appearances, except they both have their regular performers and voices, and both are identified by name in the end credits. Miss Poogy never...

    The Future of Constantine

    He's a great character, but I couldn't see him being used much, unless he's a regular villain or the main focus. It would be weird to see a Kermit look-alike in crowd scenes, especially for people who aren't aware of the movie (currently I don't think there's anybody unaware of Muppets Most...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Or worse, doing a reissue with additional segments from the past five years, and removing a few segments to make room. Or just removing some/all of the bonus features. Then again, I wouldn't expect the first disc to be affected, unless they moved the first few seasons on disc 2 to disc 1. And...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I've been thinking, if an Electric Mayhem song where Dr. Teeth was not the lead singer was released on an album, how would the performers of the song be listed? If any Electric Mayhem song led by Floyd was released (I know, Mr. Bassman and New York State of Mind were, but he's the only member...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Well, David Rudman's Cookie Monster and Eric Jacobson's Bert and Grover don't sound too different from Frank Oz's, and while Steve Whitmire and Matt Vogel's respective Ernie and Count voices sound different from the originals (though Vogel's Count sounds more like Jerry Nelson's when he's...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I just thought of something: The upcoming special The Cookie Thief will probably be released on DVD this year. Wouldn't it be great if that DVD included Don't Eat the Pictures as a bonus feature (though since that special is on DVD through a different company, I wonder if they could include that...

    Scrollbar Disappears

    I'm having this problem as well. Good thing I could click on this thread. And good thing that when I posted, it took me right to the bottom.

    The "You know what?" thread

    In the last few weeks, I've heard about it snowing really badly throughout the United States, yet there hasn't been much snow or cold weather where I live. And people kept saying they expected such bad weather. I've been jokingly saying that it's been snowing everywhere but here (and Florida...

    Is there a reason why Disney dislikes releasing Muppet DVD's?

    Wait, so in regards to residuals/royalties, do those entitled get paid based on what units are sold to stores or from the copies actually sold in stores?

    Is there a reason why Disney dislikes releasing Muppet DVD's?

    It's a wonder (and perhaps a good thing) that it's not illegal to buy used merchandise, considering that the companies making them don't make money when people buy things that were already purchased. And Disney never made any money off those Best of the Muppet Show DVDs, as they were released...

    Back To Square One?(The Muppets' 60th Anniversary)

    I can't remember if I've ever suggested this idea, but I wonder if a Muppet high school show would be a good series. It would have the Muppets as teachers, teaching new students (plus Robin and maybe Bean Bunny). Kind of like how Tiny Toons had the Looney Tunes as teachers, though this would...

    Back To Square One?(The Muppets' 60th Anniversary)

    One thing I always found ironic was that that was only the second episode broadcast (though the fourth in production order). The first episode involved Greg replacing Rochester Rabbit as the star of Sweetknuckle Junction, and then right away we get an episode with them changing the format...

    Back To Square One?(The Muppets' 60th Anniversary)

    Was that Greg the Bunny show really the same show, or was it a different show with the same characters? After all, TMS, JHH, and MT are all different shows with the Muppets. But on the other hand, I generally consider most of the Scooby Doo shows to be the same show with different titles. Greg...

    Back To Square One?(The Muppets' 60th Anniversary)

    I remember when the show was announced, I saw some comments on the forum about it being a good thing the show would air on Fox because Fox tended to give shows a second chance if the ratings weren't good. Greg the Bunny was a good show that never should have been canceled (and it's a shame...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    In The Secrets of the Muppets, there's a girl Muppet seen in the background during the end credits. Anybody know who she is? It's during the 47:42 mark: In case it gets taken down before anyone can check but there are people who have the special on video, she can be seen next to a rat way...

    Back To Square One?(The Muppets' 60th Anniversary)

    Looking at the script, I am mixed about whether I like or dislike it. It mentioned quite a few guest stars who I'm not interested in,and the sketches aren't that great (especially not the "plot"). But I'm sure many of us would have really liked it back then, as it heavily featured Scooter and...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    Recently I read that The Disney Channel actually showed the UK spots for Muppets Tonight in America. I watched Muppets Tonight on The Disney Channel and don't ever remember seeing any of those segments on there. Could this change have occurred late in the shows run on The Disney Channel (though...
