I think I still have one of these, though I'm not completely sure. Ditto with a few additional "video guides" with Muppet sections that were packaged with Disney releases at the time.
I felt like it made a bit more sense, since Sex and Violence feels more like a Muppet Show pilot than the Valentines Show. I think they wanted to include both but there wasn't disc space for both (though season three was able to make room for The Muppets on Puppets, with some of the discs having...
I just noticed that on the page for Howard Tubman, it mentions that his first love is musical theater choreography. I guess that's meant to reference his role in It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie.
The original mock-up pages that were shown online included a picture from The Muppets'...
According to the Mean Mama page at Muppet Wiki, Mean Mama's last appearance was in an episode of Dog City (and the page has a picture from her appearance). However, it is not said which episode she appeared in. I checked "what links here" but couldn't find any Dog City episodes, and then I...
The good thing is that all of those clips can be viewed online without Dr. Teeth's voice-over (as most Muppet Show clips on YouTube re taken from the episodes they originated in as opposed to the compilations), but back then viewers didn't have that option (though the show was more widely...
Thinking about the possibilities of a trading card collection where each card is of a scene from the show, here's what clips I'd represent:
1. Big Bird Meets Sally (episode 1)
2. Rubber Duckie (season 2)
3. C is for Cookie (original)
4. Wanda the Witch
5. Snuffy in the New York marathon
6. Luis...
Another observation about "Rock Music" is that Beaker makes a LOT more explosions than I had remembered. I thought he only made explosions in the intro to "Don't Blame the Dynamite" (and mistakenly thought that was when Dr. Teeth told Beaker to promise he'll never do that again before Beaker...
At one point in the Rugrats episode "Feeding Hubert", Angelica gives the Rugrats tips on how to make a "can of monster food", but why is Angelica helping the babies there? Considering her first line when she enters is her asking if they're talking about the "monster" who eats their trash, I...

Didn't think about the fact that Statler and Waldorf don't interact with Piggy much, though I did notice they don't heckle her often (maybe make the occasional fat joke). But with her karate skills, would YOU heckle Miss Piggy?
Though they have sung along to a few of her songs, like "The Boy...

Oh. I thought the tune sounded a little different (I thought maybe he was singing some sort of opera), but then again, he also only sang a few words before Dr. Teeth interrupted him.
Thinking back to my idea of anniversary trading cards, I keep thinking of several different options for character cards featuring still images from their best moments, though still wanting the "main image" to be a picture that's not a still (and I think all of the characters I listed have such a...
After watching all of Rock Music with the Muppets for the first time in years, here are some thoughts:
1. At the beginning, Dr. Teeth calls Beaker his "incompetent engineer". Aside from calling him incompetent, is this some kind of play-on-words?
2. The introduction to "Don't Blame the Dynamite"...

Fozzie and Pops did interact a bit in The Great Muppet Caper (such as the "Pops, don't tell anybody, Kermit's got a date with Lady Holiday" line and Fozzie's response to Pops' payment choices), and in the Melissa Manchester episode they even did a number together.
Maybe there could be a special Sesame Street app similar to My Muppets Show. Of course this (and a number of other ideas I suggested) could still be done regardless of whether there's an anniversary.
