    Regarding Disney's Rights to MTM and MFS

    Well, The Muppets' Wizard of Oz was included in that list of "in development" (I'm not sure if all were in development at the time, or if they were all scripts and treatments regardless of whether plans were canceled) projects, and is the only one on that list that did get made.

    Underrated TMS Episodes

    If the criteria for an "underratted" episode being that it was not included in "The Best of TMS" releases (and the two I listed were not), then the first season has a lot of underrated episodes. Paul Williams, Avery Scrieber, Kaye Ballard, Ethel Merman, Connie Stevens, Valerie Harper... But...

    For the first time on YouTube ever...

    The Put Down the Duckie clip is followed by a clip from another appearance by John Candy on the show. It's also interesting how some of the celebrities to make cameos (Danny DeVito, Rosie O'Donnel) also appear in some of the clips.

    Regarding Disney's Rights to MTM and MFS

    One fan had obtained a big document book from when Disney bought the Muppets, which had a section which mentioned that Henson previously had no copyright on MTM or MFS. A blog post featuring various scans from this document can be found here...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    A couple nights ago I had a dream where Sesame Street: Old School Volume 4 was officially announced.

    Joey Calvan (the little girl who sang the alphabet with Kermit)

    No, I don't. Come to think of it, a few years ago, somebody had wondered why she wasn't reunited for the 20th anniversary special, and I wondered if maybe she'd died (though I do not know either way, hopefully she hasn't). I think there's only a few kids who appeared on the show who have...

    For the first time on YouTube ever...

    It was so good to see the whole special after all these years. I recorded it but it stopped halfway through the "Worm TV" montage, and my recording started at the last second of Barbra Walter's introduction. Actually, I didn't get to watch the beginning "live" when it was broadcast, so this is...

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    Well, Carl has eaten a bunny in both episodes so far. Might be a "once an episode" thing.

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    I wonder if Steve Whitmire did much performing in these. Kermit appears at the beginning of the first episode, and I haven't noticed Steve performing any other characters. Despite Kermit being in just a little of the series so far, the credits give Steve Whitmire "Starring" credit (Kermit...

    Joey Calvan (the little girl who sang the alphabet with Kermit)

    The Muppet Wiki page for her at least lists other skits she did (and I did the majority of that editing).

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    If this was made two years ago, I wonder what took them so long to actually release it. I noticed at the beginning that Walter refers to Muppets Most Wanted. I'm pretty sure it didn't have that title in 2012, so either some of it was shot recently or Peter Linz dubbed the line.

    60 Years of Muppets...

    A couple more ideas: #1. Rerelease many old Muppet storybooks (if Disney has the rights to do so). For the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street, there was a special book compilation of many existing Sesame Street books, so the Muppets could do the same. Maybe include Robin Hood, Two for the Show...

    Little things we've noticed

    Yeah, after getting the third season DVD I noticed how Bear on Patrol first appeared very late in the season, with three in a small time span (including one that was significantly different from the others). And sometime later, after looking at the guide at Muppet Wiki, noticed that Bear on...

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    I had only watched them once when I posted this, and then I watched again after posting... This is what happens when I only watch something once on the day it premieres.

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    Suddenly I wonder: Is it really called "Disney Drive On", or just "Drive On", with the Disney logo over it, like how many recent Disney productions have "Disney" (instead of "Disney's") over the titles.

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    I wonder if Kermit's reaction before he corrects Walter about his plans was a reference to how the film did.

    "Disney Drive On" possible new web series?

    Here's part of an episode: http://video.disney.com/watch/kermit-left-me-in-charge-disney-drive-on-with-the-muppets-disney-movies-anywhere-4ff6e46249e287809be4d010 Not too sure how I feel about the Muppets working at Disney in-universe. It'd be better if they were running their own Muppet studio.

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    Actually, Matt Vogel is only the understudy for Big Bird. I think he talked about Oscar in an interview, can't exactly remember what he said, but Oscar doesn't seem to have an understudy. Of course the whole point of having Vogel be an understudy for Big Bird in the first place was because...

    They're trying for another Power Rangers Movie again

    Those were low budget? The first one certainly looked like it was made with a higher budget than the series.
