    So... Will there be a regular DVD to purchase as well, in addition to this exclusive?

    Has Frank Oz's opinion on the new movie changed?

    Forget whether Frank oz's opinion has changed... I'd like to know what Jerry Nelson's opinion is! :) And also Kevin Clash's. And Brian Henson's.

    Classic Sesame Street clips on YouTube

    A sketch where Roosevelt Franklin tells the story of "Morty Moot Mope" is on YouTube: I saw images from this sketch on Muppet Wiki today, and assumed that the person who got the images got them from a foreign dub, but then I found the clip and it's in english! And a portion of this story...

    The Muppets Go To The Movies

    This is one of my favorite Muppet specials, right up there with A Muppet Family Christmas, Muppets at Walt Disney World, and The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years. A lot of people see this as promotion for The Great Muppet Caper, but I don't see it. It has three clips from the movie and a...

    I think Zoot is VERY cool!

    Fraggle Rock: The Best Of Red UK DVD Aug 27th

    Sounds cool, even though it's only available in the UK and I doubt I'd buy it anyway. If I was in charge, I'd include the episodes "I Want to Be You", "The Minstrels", "Red's Club", and "Inspector Red". What I'd do for other "Best of character" releases: Best of Gobo - "Gobo's Discovery"...

    Fads and Obsessions

    Oh, I thought it was due to her appearance on SNL a few years ago, though I heard that appearance came about due to a petition (much like the later petition to have Cookie Monster host).

    Does Animal seem to be more tame now a days?

    That's from The Muppet Revue. And you can see that clip again now:

    Fads and Obsessions

    I wonder what's up with the recent surge in popularity for Betty White. I've never hated her, but was never a fan, either, and it's interesting that she seems to be popular again (I'm surprised she hasn't starred in a recent movie). She's not a bad actress, but not really somebody I was...

    Biff without a hat

    Well, I've found that they are the same song. A few images from that song have been uploaded to Muppet Wiki, including one from when Biff and Sully are presidents (which is on the wiki page "President of the United States of America", but not in the "We Coulda" page). I asked the user who...

    Question about Mahna Mahna/Bip Bippadotta

    Mahna Mahna talked in "The String Quartet" sketch on The Ed Sullivan Show. I wish he would have been given more non-Mahna Mahna dialogue over the years. They named the Sesame Street version to avoid confusion between the two, but I think they did a poor job of it. I don't think either...

    Vote Muppets for ABC's "Best in TV" Barbara Walters Special

    Most of these categories needed write-in options (then why include choices at all...).

    Vote Muppets for ABC's "Best in TV" Barbara Walters Special

    One thing that I don't like is that most of the nominees for "best TV moment" are reality-based moments. Obama's inauguation, the Berlin wall coming down, the 9/11 attacks... Mostly news stuff. I don't even associate the 9/11 attacks as a TV moment (though I think it's weird that somebody just...

    Vote Muppets for ABC's "Best in TV" Barbara Walters Special

    I wish we could skip some of the questions. I hate that I had to vote for a best reality show, a best drama, and a best soap opera (I ended up blindly voting for American Idol, The Twillight Zone, and One Life to Live). I wish there was a "none of the above" option. I can't believe that the...

    Fads and Obsessions

    Oh yeah I forgot about the fads of female celebrities having "handbag dogs" like chichuahuas. I wonder if that's why the main character in the Legally Blonde movies had one. Of course my family has three chihuahuas, the first of which we got sometime after the Taco Bell dogs commercials...

    Did other puppet heads have "Gorg vision"?

    In "Down at Fraggle Rock" it's said that there were video monitors inside the heads of the Gorgs, which Henson called "Gorg vision". But I wonder, were there ever any other full-body Henson creations that had monitors inside the heads? I know that some characters (Big Bird, Bear, Thog) had...
