One thing I hope I learn because of this movie, or before it comes out, is if Caroll Spinney ever actually performed Sam thr Robot. When I first got the internet I saw Sam listed as a Caroll Spinney character in a Muppet performer guide online, then I saw all sorts of sources that list Jerry...

I wonder how old each character on the show was when the show was made. I assume they are meant to be the age that the actors are, but some characters (donkeylips, all of the girls ) it's hard to tell if they are elementary-school-aged, middle-school-aged or high school-aged (well Michael Bowers...

I've never noticed that bacon obsession before. It seems an obsession with chihuahuas keeps coming and going. There was the popularity of the Taco Bell Dog, then he stopped appearing in commercials and people cared less about them, and then that Beverly Hills Chihuahua movie came out and...

Me too, but I'd like to point out that it's been widely sourced that the Muppet performers normally work freelance, whether it be for Henson, Sesame Workshop, or even Disney. I'm sure there'd be no problem if Brian wanted to perform for Disney. But I'm sure he's more interested in working for...

I had recently read that Blake Soper later became a musician and changed his stage name.

I was thinking about how it was a poor decision to make Clifford the main character, since the general public wouldn't have known him too well (yeah, he was on The Jim Henson Hour and had appeared in the occasional Muppet production since), but then I remembered an interview where Kevin Clash...

I was looking at the donation page, and was (pleaseantly) surprised to see that somebody actually donated 10,000 dollars. And at first I misread the 10,000 prize as a 100,000 dollar prize (if somebody did pledge the entire goal I wonder if they'd get a really great, unlisted prize). Speaking...

I first heard of the term "Jump the Shark" because of the website (I haven't checked that site out in years). Knowing it was named after what Fonzie did on the show, I sort of wondered, "why not just call it 'jump the trashcans'?" Besides, I like the episode where Fonzie jumped the shark, but...

I wonder what the big deal of Fonzie "jumping the shark" was. I thought that was a great sequence, I like the three-part "Hollywood" episodes which featured it, and in a way the later Richie episodes (seasons 5-7) are better than the earlier ones (though in another way the earlier ones are...

One thing I noticed about the second season opening is that it seems to be shot better than the first opening. The individual verses with each character seems to be more decorated. But at times the second season opening seems like a step back a little. In the first opening, at one point...

It would be great if, sometime in the future, The Electric Mayhem gets to do covers of both songs.

I'd now like to share my thoughts on a select number of episodes (most of which I've watched recently, few of which I haven't). Michael Comes to Camp It's mentioned that it's the first day of camp at Camp Awnawana, but is Michael the only new kid there this year? When Budnick and Donkeylips...

Somebody needs to ask Frank Oz, Jane Henson, or Jerry Nelson while they still can! Assuming any of them would know.

When the show was on the air I found it odd that they'd include cameos by other celebrities who weren't the guest star (and in season two even gave subplots to celebrities without announcing them as guests... I can't figure out why Don Rickles was announced as a guest alongside Coolio). I asked...

I've never heard it mentioned on-screen. It's a shame the species name was never spoken on-screen in any productions. I remember when I first saw the name written, in the Muppet Hits album, I had my mom look at it and asked how it was pronounced, and she thought it was said as "Snow-th", and...

Who all is a fan of the old Nickelodeon series Salute Your Shorts? I really liked the show. I recently found that a limited number of episodes are on iTunes. While many Nickelodeon shows are available on iTunes in season sets, Salute Your Shorts is on iTunes in "volumes" (while the episode...

I watched the show during it's original run, liked it, but still had some problems with it. In fact I've also been rewatching some episodes recently. I've heard that it was because ABC didn't know what to do with the show. But while som esay ABC kept changing the time slot, I only remember...

One thing I noticed about this season is that many of Kermit's intros to the opening numbers tend to get interrupted or take up a bit of time before the opening numbers. When introducing Kris Kristofferson, Miss Piggy peeks from behind the curtain to try to make Kermit jealous. Fozzie comes...

Shows that I like: Salute Your Shorts Rugrats (preferably the 1991-1993 episodes) Welcome Freshmen (though finding episodes seem to be scarce) Hey Arnold Taz-Mania Darkwing Duck Pete and Pete All That Keenan and Kel Cousin Skeeter Goosebumps Nick Arcade

It's "Park Day" with Bert.
