    The Muppets and Lady Gaga in new Christmas special November 28 on ABC

    Wow, now there's people questioning why Mo Frackle is there? Currently he's the most obscure character that we know is in the special. In fact that number where he's shown is like those numbers on The Muppet Show that would have the main cast and an obscure character or two.

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    Yeah I'm pretty sure there are no season 30-34 episodes on iTunes. In fact before I did my last post I checked the iTunes Store page at Muppet Wiki to see which "seasons" are on iTunes (each grouping of episodes by season is just half a season). Of course if they wanted to do a 12-episode...

    Speculation: Sesame Street 45th Anniversary Possibilities

    One thing I suddenly thought would be great for the 45th anniversary: A special iTunes release of 45 episodes, one per season. Yeah, it might be a bit much, since somebody at Sesame Workshop confirmed via correspondence with one of our members that there's no current plans to release any more...

    Questions about anything

    I can't believe they would reject a pitch just because it was so detailed about what the creator wanted. So it makes sense that they would want to see drawings of the characters, if it's an animated show (and maybe a puppet show), but what if it's a normal live-action show (meaning the main...

    Video: "1D Day" with One Direction, The Muppets and more Saturday November 23

    He was in Adventures of Pinocchio? Though I haven't seen that movie in over a decade. Who did he play in that movie?

    Questions about anything

    So does anybody have any idea what creators of TV shows do when they send their first pitch of the show to a company to produce? What I would do, and I don't know if this is normal (and I don't know if anybody here knows the answer, but they might), would be to send in a letter with info...

    Video: "1D Day" with One Direction, The Muppets and more Saturday November 23

    After reading this, I'm surprised that Rocky only had a brief mention during Kermit's first introduction, as opposed to heavily focusing on the fact that he was the star of that movie (like how the Christopher Reeve episode made a big deal out of his role as Superman, or how the Lynda Carter one...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    At first when I heard that a different cover was posted online, I thought it was a fan-made cover redesign. Then I looked and was surprised that it was new. As somebody who never had a problem with the previous cover, I must say that I do like this new cover better (but mainly because it has...

    And then there was the time they killed off James Woods for real, but then they later revealed that he was given special hospital treatment only given to celebrities (has James Woods ever really been that famous, though?) which meant that he's now alive and well again. Maybe they can do...

    Video: Muppets Most Wanted Official US and International Trailers On-line

    One thing I've noticed is that although we've heard that this movie will include a wedding and have seen behind-the-scenes photos for the wedding, that hasn't been in any of the trailers. I guess the closest thing would be that we see Kermit and Constantine in tuxedos in the helicopter scene...

    I just found out that along with the most recent format change, you can no longer rate episodes of shows at The AV Club. Why did they do away with the rating system by readers?

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    The only way I would have expected that would be if it were to include characters owned by Henson and Sesame Workshop as well, but we know it ain't happening.

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    The first several times I read the description at Muppet Wiki I thought it had said that the book is 200 pages, but after rereading it over and over recently I noticed I am wrong, it actually says 200 characters (I hope that every character who has to share a page with others, whether as a duo...

    Coming Soon: Sesame Street Season 45

    I know that they do two seasons at a time now, but I think they also do record additional material for the season closer to the seasons broadcast. If they're going to do any topical parodies, couldn't they record those when they get closer to the seasons broadcast? Then again, even if it's...

    Video: "1D Day" with One Direction, The Muppets and more Saturday November 23

    Yeah, that's ironic. Back in the 1970s Jim Henson wanted the Muppets to be for adults as well as kids, and so many celebrities who I'm sure most kids hadn't heard of were guests. And now it seems Disney is trying to make them appeal to kids by including stars that the kids would be more familiar...

    Video: "1D Day" with One Direction, The Muppets and more Saturday November 23

    With quite a few of us complaining about the Muppets working with certain celebrities (and I'm no exception, though I think I've complained significantly less than others), something has occurred to me. Many of the celebrities who appeared with the Muppets when we were younger were there to...
