    Labyrinth - The Four Guards scene

    Still trying to wrap my head around that explanation... And still, in the movie, Sarah only asks one of the guards what the other would say, without asking the other one.

    Big Bird and Thog

    It's so weird seeing Thog sitting. I didn't think the costume was built to be able to sit without breaking/ruining it a little. Additionally, it's odd that they used the pre-frog Kermit (with non-flipper feet) for "I've Grown Accustomed to Your Face" when the more famous Kermit look had been...

    Labyrinth - The Four Guards scene

    Something I've been wondering about regarding the Four Guards scene in Labyrinth is how Sarah determines which one is telling the truth. She asks one of them, "would he say that this one leads to the castle", to which the other one says yes. When the other one points out that the other one...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    From time to time, I wonder if Kevin Clash will ever do an interview again, whether for something professional or for a fan site or podcast. I'm pretty sure most fans (or at least the people at The Muppet Mindset and Tough Pigs) have the common sense not to discuss the circumstances that led to...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    So A Christmas Carol and It's a Wonderful Life have both had any variations with familiar characters. But one thing I just realized is that most Christmas Carol variants have familiar characters playing the roles of characters from the movie and follows the same basic plot, while It's a...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    The Carpenters - Won't Last a Day Without You.

    Billy Barkhurst

    I can't believe I didn't think about the fact that the image had another performer performing a character as well.

    Billy Barkhurst

    Looking at that picture, I must ask, is Billy left-handed, or is that a "reversed image"? I've only seen one clip of his Ernie (the "Change the Plan" song), and I must say his Ernie sounds a bit more like Jim's Ernie.

    Thinking about how popular Muppet productions are

    You know, I've never been able to post a poll here. When I first joined I wanted to do polls, but couldn't figure out what to do (never had that problem at other forums). I guess popularity might go a little beyond how things have been available as well. Obviously, all this stuff can be seen...

    Are there Season 1 shows floating around?

    How interesting that Ernie and Bert did several segments about the letter X in the first season, many of which involved puns.

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

    It seems like when The Jim Henson Company has a video distribution deal, it never gets renewed (well, Sony still has the home video rights to The Storyteller and The Dark Crystal after all these years). I wonder why... I'm guessing it's Henson who doesn't renew as opposed to the video companies...

    Goosebumps Thread

    In "The Girl Who Cried Monster", at the end, when the parents mention that them being monsters is why it took them so long to believe Lucy's story about the librarian being a monster, all these years I've thought they meant that they did believe her the whole time but acted like they didn't...

    Thinking about how popular Muppet productions are

    For awhile I've been thinking about how popular certain Muppet productions are, wanting to determine which ones are most popular and which are least popular. I've actually wanted to do this for awhile, I thought about making it a Muppet Mindset article but somehow I don't feel like it's "Muppet...

    Does Sesame Street still air classic segments?

    I don't think us fans were aware of the fact that the Ernie and Bert "H on TV" segment was a remake of an earlier segment, and doubt we were clamoring for it. Those who looked at the "first season show content" files from the CTW Archives might have noticed it, where it was listed as "Muppet TV...

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    Sesame Street Unpaved: This copy comes from a Noggin airing, and includes the Nogginoids that aired during the commercial breaks. I saw this special when it aired on TV Land, and all of the Nogginoids that I remember airing during the broadcast are included here.

    Are there Season 1 shows floating around?

    Maybe it's just Bert who thinks cheese with holes taste better because he's Bert. Though I don't think his nerdy personality was established/developed until the second season.

    I found that the Sesame Street Unpaved documentary is back on YouTube!

    Are there Season 1 shows floating around?

    I generally dislike cheese (aside from mozarella cheese and macaroni and cheese), but I wonder if holes really do make cheese taste better (well, it was taught on Sesame Street, so it must be true...). How does holes make cheese (or any other food) taste better? Maybe this is a better...

    Are there Season 1 shows floating around?

    That "Swinging on a Star" segment is a somewhat better use of having the adults decorate Anything Muppets than most of those sketches. It feels more like Susan putting characters in animal costumes. Though some of those Anything Muppets had blank faces (and all were naked), a few of them at...
