I didn't know that Traveling Matt once hosted NBC saturday morning programming
It's a shame this wasn't a bonus feature on the Animated Fraggle Rock DVDs (or does NBC own these clips?). They don't show clips from the shows being mentioned, so there wouldn't be copyright problems there.
I doubt those were regular episodes. The one with Kermit and Cookie Monster was a PBS promo.
I was checking that Red Book source, and PBS pledges with Kermit, Cookie Monster, Miss Piggy, Grover, Ernie and Bert were recorded in 1979. Statler and Waldorf also appeared in a pledge promo in...
Today's article actually concerns something that happened AFTER the Red Book was finished: Info on Secrets of the Muppets - http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2013/04/19/4191989/
I wonder if the site will provide any info on other post-1988 projects Jim Henson did, like his last day on the...
Wow, I didn't even know that he performed on The Jim Henson Hour (and the Muppet Wiki page for him doesn't list the show in his filmography).
You know, the early posts of this thread said that the rights to The Secrets of the Muppets were split by Henson and Disney, I assume Gelfling Waldo...
I've seen one of those threads that was posted recently, and I know I posted this one before that. The one I saw was about a specific commercial, this one I intended to be an all-purpose thread for any of us to ask about any commercials we remember but don't remember what they were advertising.
I just remembered a few more commercials that I don't remember the advertised product:
*A commercial, I think for some pants company, with a group of men who sing something that sounds like "Ohh la-la shashoon". I could be wrong on the spelling of that last word. This commercial was often...
I get annoyed when people refer to 2011's "The Muppets" as "The Muppet Movie". Yes, it's a Muppet movie, but there's already a Muppet movie with that title and there are several Muppet movies.
Would it be unfair to say "every Justin Bieber song?" Of course the only ones I've heard are ones that play on the radio (and I generally only listen to modern music stations if I'm riding in a car with somebody else driving, as I prefer '80s music and oldies).
Part of me wants to say "every...
Doglion is performed by Dave Goelz.
The head of the head people is David Rudman (I had originally intended on him being performed by Steve Whitmire, until I decided to have him interact with Kermit), while the others can be anyone. I didn't really provide any specific names, roles, or...
A mistake I made that I just remembered: Long ago, when Henson.com added an FAQ section, some of the questions were worded very silly/over-dramatically, and I thought those questions really were asked that way.* There were questions worded like "I need to write a research paper on Jim Henson and...
This was on YouTube a few years ago, but it was taken down shortly after it went online (the Muppet Wiki page for PBS had it embedded but never made any stills for the website).
I recall seeing an article on Henson's Red Book that said that there were a few pledge drive insertials with...
Chapter 10
Beauregard carried Sweetums to the hole in the ceiling to let him into the theater.
"I don't like having to spend the rest of my life like this", said Sweetums.
"Well, look on the right side", said Beauregard, "if I had a stick I could use you as a mop."
Beauregard then...
Chapter 9
Sweetums brought the spaceship to the fuel station, and carefully landed it to the ground (though he caused a bit of damage to the bottom of the theater underneath).
"That's not good", said Sweetums.
The spaceship's side door opened, and various Muppets and head people came...
After looking at scans from the documents so many times, I'd like to see the documents regarding Disney's purchase of Marvel, Lucasfilm, and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Sesame Workshop's purchase of the Sesame Street characters, and The Jim Henson Company's video deals regarding Jim Henson Video...
Chapter 8
Sweetums was powered-up and in costume, headed towards the meteor.
"I sure hope he's powerful enough", said Robin.
"He is", said the head of the head people, "I just hope he doesn't miss."
"According to our computer screen", said another head, "he is going in the right...
Chapter 7
"But I swear, Kermit, it did happen!", said Sweetums.
"I'm convinced you have your memory back", said Kermit, "but I doubt you were actually a space hero. Maybe you're remembering a dream or something."
"Besides, you can't be a space hero", said Link Hogthrob, "I am a space...
Chapter 6
Kermit took Sweetums to the Muppet Theater. They were watching the show opening.
"See what you're doing there,Sweetums?", asked Kermit, "that's what you do in the opening."
"Oh, I can do that!", said Sweetums.
Sweetums ran to the archs on stage and tried... But he got...
Chapter 5
Sweetums was walking around town, wondering who he was. He came across a number of strangers.
"Hey, do you know who I am?", asked Sweetums.
"Not only do I not know who you are, I also don't CARE about who you are."
Sweetums went to the next person.
"Hey, do you know who I...
Chapter 4
Sweetums made it to the rural town.
"Now for me to find out who did it", said Sweetums.
He came across an old lady.
"Excuse me, is your name Alex?"
"Up yours!", said the old lady.
The head of the head people then contacted Sweetums.
"We learned the guys...
