    The gangsters made it to their hide-out, dragging Fozzie down there. "Oh, what are you going to do to me?", asked a worried Fozzie. "You had plenty of time to ask that on the ride here", said Eddie. They got into the building... And saw that Fozzie's boss and the other Muppets had...

    Fozzie's Mattress Sales

    Chapter 6 The car chase went on... without the cars being back-to-back. In the Muppets car, the cast was singing "No Room for Boring", while the boss was trying to give directions. "Hey! I can't give directions with all that singing!", said the boss. "Yes, can everybody quiet...

    Chapter 5 The Newsman came on-stage to give a news report. "Here is a Muppet News Flash! Mattress Land has been selling a lot more mattresses lately than normal. And it is possibly all due to Fozzie Bear! So come on down to Mattress Land, and buy a mattress from Fozzie. And due to the...

    Fozzie's Mattress Sales

    Chapter 4 Fozzie eventually woke up after fainting. "Oh, what happened?", asked Fozzie. "You fainted", said the boss, "but don't worry about being cut. You've done such a great job selling mattresses, you should give up comedy." "What?", asked Fozzie. "You've done such a great...

    Chapter 3 Statler and Waldorf entered Mattress Land. "Hey, it's the bear!", said Waldorf. "How's the mattress business?", said Statler. "He couldn't possibly be worse at selling mattresses than he is at comedy", said Waldorf. Statler and Waldorf laughed. "Well, for your...

    Fozzie's Mattress Sales

    Chapter 2 So Fozzie started his first day at work. "Oh wow", said Fozzie, "it's my first day on the job, and with my commission, I only need to sell five mattresses before I pay my writers fee!" "It's not as easy as it seems", said the boss, "mattress sales have declined recently...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    Wow, just a couple days ago I started wondering if the 45th anniversary would not get celebrated after all (since 1989 they've celebrated an anniversary every five years) and actually felt a little okay with it. And now I know that there'll be at least one anniversary item. That's not always...

    The Jim Henson Hour Appreciation Thread

    Lately, I've been wondering if InnerTube actually is the official pilot for the show. It's similar to the MuppeTelevision segments (mainly due to the same basic set and heavy uses of new technology), though the concept was soon replaced with Lead-Free TV (which definitely was going to be part of...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    Last night I dreamt I was working on an official Muppet production - actually I can't remember whether it was a comic book or a film/special, but I was working on some official Muppet project called "Muppet Men Vs. Women", which took place at a summer camp and had the Muppet males competing...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets Character Encyclopedia

    At first I thought he confirmed it as being owned by Disney. He said the line as "they are, and were - the king, Taminella, Featherstone - on the list I sent to Disney". I wonder if he meant to say the line as "they are, and were - the king, Taminella, Featherstone - on the list I sent to...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets Character Encyclopedia

    I guess the fact that production of the book was rushed would be why we didn't learn any names we previously didn't know. I'm guessing he went by what was on Muppet Wiki, as opposed to looking at files (character design sketches, scripts, etc.) to double-check or determine names of characters...

    Well, aside from "did you consider including (insert character not asked about in the interview)". I'd like to see Craig Shemin's original list of who to include. If more characters from The Jim Henson Hour were included (it's a shame they didn't ask why Jazques Roach or Anthony and Fern...

    Disney gets sued by a toy company over Lotso Huggin' Bear

    Then Disney wouldn't have been involved. I'm pretty sure that only Henson would have been involved with approving the merchandise.

    Entertainment Weekly has posted an interview with Brian Henson. http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/04/15/henson-creature-shop-farscape-fraggle-rock-dinosaurs/ It's interesting how Brian thought that three movies where the Muppets play themselves was enough. Really??? Also interesting that he says...

    Disney gets sued by a toy company over Lotso Huggin' Bear

    Was the toy made before or after Disney got the rights (beyond just broadcasting the show) to Bear in the Big Blue House?
