    TV Tropes

    I've been looking at the website constantly for the last few months, and it is a great site. I've considered joining, but still haven't. Some of my favorite tropes: Serious Business, Periphery hatedom, the freelance shame squad, karma houdini, the reason you suck!, and adults are useless...

    Your Thoughts: A Special Sesame Street Christmas DVD and CD

    I was hoping a release would have come out then. I also wishfully thought it should contain all the Ed Sullivan appearances not on the Muppets Magic DVD as a bonus feature (most of the segments not included were due to music rights, but rights were cleared for one segment to appear on a...

    Found new stuff in The Great Muppet Caper

    Actually he was credited for most of season three. In interviews he said that his first epsiode was the Alice Cooper episode, though he was credited in the first episode of the season (and I'm pretty sure that was the first episode of the season in recording order, so I'm not sure what happened...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Old School Volume 3 1979-1984 DVD

    One thing I noticed is that on this set "Doll House" is the only #2 segment included that was perhaps overly-included in the past sets. None of the 2-sponsored episodes feature Henson #2 or Jazz #2 (it's a shame the #8 editions of those aren't in the episode sponsored by 8, though I know that...

    Questions about Muppet Babies in general

    I would have thought that the reason for having different voice actors as the Muppet Babies was so the main performers could concentrate more on Fraggle Rock, Sesame Street, and the various Muppet specials and appearances (in addition to allowing Jim to work on scores of other projects at once...

    Your Thoughts: A Special Sesame Street Christmas DVD and CD

    Should we petition for the rights holders to release this one?:) Of course that one isn't exactly full of celebrity appearances (just Art Carney... and Ed Sullivan if he counts). The comment about Muppet specials owned by third parties that center on celebrity appearances seems more fitting...

    Your Thoughts: A Special Sesame Street Christmas DVD and CD

    Well, I just finished watching the special, and I didn't think it was too bad. Of course I knew what to expect (and I was online while watching as well). I found it funny when Ethel Merman enters greeting people with Merry Christmas and the others don't respond. Almost as if they have the...

    Neil's Puppet Dreams

    I missed all the commercials, and I can see how I could miss him hosting event/awards shows, as I don't watch those often (and I certaintly watch all of those kinds of shows). I forgot about him being in the Smurfs movie. Of course I didn't see that movie, but it seems I keep forgetting about...

    Your Thoughts: A Special Sesame Street Christmas DVD and CD

    I found a copy at Wal-Mart today, so I'm watching this for the first time. It's decent so far, though obviously not the greatest. I didn't notice a bad smell at first, but as I walked around Wal-Mart carrying it, I kept smelling a number of strong smells. Not sure if it was certain sections...

    Music Video: "All I Need is Love" with CeeLo Green and The Muppets

    I could have sworn I saw The Swedish Chef attempting to cook a turkey throughout the first few minutes of the video. I'd say more like that guy who was invited to a party but doesn't know anybody except the person who invited him, who knows the others.

    Music Video: "All I Need is Love" with CeeLo Green and The Muppets

    When I first heard the song, I wasn't impressed (and I'll admit, I stopped listening before the song was even over), but figured, "the music video will probably be better". And I was right! This music video is so much better than the song. Almost as good as the OK GO Muppet Show Theme. If I...

    Neil's Puppet Dreams

    Really? I haven't noticed him everywhere. While his role on How I Met Your Mother has clearly kept him from being typecast as Doogie Houser, I haven't really noticed him in too much aside from guest appearances. Has he starred in any big movies?

    Sesame Street Alphabet Stickers(1981)

    Interesting that this has Deena but not Pearl. Something tells me that Deena might have made many appearances without Pearl. Deena appears without Pearl in the "Big Hello 1-20" segment (Brian Meehl was performing Barkley in that segment), the 40th anniversary book has a photo of Brian Meehl...

    Wish list for cameos in the next Muppet movie

    I want cameos by Digit, Seymour, George the Janitor, Fleet Scribbler, and Mad Monty. Actually I think I'd like a cameo by Brian Henson, performing all of his Muppets Tonight characters (perhaps they could all show up for the same scene, or Brian can make four "cameos" so Sal, Seymour, Nigel...

    "The Muppets": One Year Later

    There's one thing I've been thinking about, and I also saw this brought up on the toughpigs forum (after I thought about it), but although the Muppets seem to be bigger now because of the movie, most of the stuff that the Muppets have done since the movie has been promotion for the blu-ray...

    "The Muppets": One Year Later

    The Muppet Mindset did an article on the one year later thing: http://themuppetmindset.blogspot.com/2012/11/the-muppets-one-year-later.html I also read on the tough pigs forum that there'll be a one year later article, only it'll most likely come out a little after the actual one-year date.
