    Who owns the rights to what?

    Currently the blog that contains all these scans has two posts concerning those legal forms/whatever. The second blog post has pages involving lawsuits. The person who started that blog said on the toughpigs forum that he hasn't posted everything from those documents, and is unsure whether he'll...

    Your Muppet mistakes

    I remember a few mistakes I made regarding The Muppet Christmas Carol, before I saw the movie, so this was based on the trailers. First, there's one scene that was in many commercials where Miss Piggy says "whatever!", her voice sounded a bit deeper and more man-like. I noticed that and thought...

    Little things we've noticed

    I've noticed that on The StoryTeller, characters who get forced to serve end up getting fair payment anyway. In "A Story Short", the Storyteller gets punished for tricking the cook and the king decides that for his punishment, the storyteller must tell one story a day or get cooked, and the...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Makes me wonder if Halloween is Grinch Night airs in october, november-december, or at all each year. Well, for the last several years I've been watching ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas each year, and hadn't noticed that special airing (doesn't mean that I haven't missed the advertising)...

    SST 2.0 Outline: Gordon Forgets His Papers

    Here's another outline for what I call "Sesame Street 2.0". For those who don't know, it was the subject of an april fools joke I did on april 1 2012. You can read the thread here: http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/april-fools-sesame-street-to-target-older-audiences-directly.50795/...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    While I am glad that the reason for the Muppets being in Europe is because they are on a world tour due to their celebrity status (and I assume newfound popularity after the events of the previous film), judging by the plot I actually feel like it'd be better if this film took place in a...

    From Broadway With Love

    I feel mixed about whether one performer should take over everybody from the same performer. Back in the 1990s and early 2000s when recasts were occurring they didn't stick to just one performer for each character, unless maybe there were multiple characters who had the exact voice. And even...

    The Muppet Show Comic Book: The Four Seasons Graphic Novel

    I thought I read that it was coming out, but I would have thought it would have come out in december (considering one of the issues is themed around Christmas). If it's just now released (as opposed to a few months ago) then I guess that explains why I hadn't been able to find copies at...

    Muppets sequel plot and promotional photo in Entertainment Weekly

    Yes, he wore his original vest in the last movie. But when you mention the leather vest, are you talking about the black leather vest he wore in the 1980s (The Muppets Take Manhattan, Rock Music with the Muppets, A Muppet Family Christmas, etc.)? Because I don't recall him wearing that anytime...

    Tina Fey in Talks for Muppet Sequel

    It's been reported on Tough Pigs that Tina Fey confirmed during an interview after the screen actors guild awards that she will be in the new movie. Her scenes will start filming in march. I'm a little surprised that her scenes will start filming a few months after it starts, if she is a main...

    Who owns the rights to what?

    I don't have them. Somebody else bought the documents online and started a blog which currently only has scans from those documents. Looking at some of the documents in the second post, it's interesting to see the lawsuit information Henson had before selling. Among some of the lawsuits...

    From Broadway With Love

    So did Herry speak at this event or was he just there to be there? I would have thought Matt Vogel would have taken over Herry. I guess he's out in England doing "The Muppets... Again" so couldn't make it. It's interesting how the only Muppets at the event are underratted/underused...

    Who owns the rights to what?

    Here's some more documents from the "who owns what" book: http://boyraisin2.blogspot.com/2013/01/more-who-owns-what.html It shows regristrations of various copyrights, for both productions and characters. It's interesting, it doesn't seem to note the difference on whether something is a...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    What's the deal with ownership of the various Dr. Seuss specials? I used to think that Warner Bros. currently owns all of them, but then found out that Universal owns the rights to all the DePatie-Freling specials (the Turner networks used to air those specials frequently, though now I remember...

    The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Thread!

    One thing that's odd: Lucy and Sally were there at the time, and Snoopy didn't give them papers telling them they owe him nothing. Just Charlie Brown. Perhaps Snoopy ran out of blank paper (though he was able to type the credits...).
