    The Muppets After The Muppets - Episode 10: In the Fun House

    Enjoy this episode of "The Muppets After The Muppets". Act 1 It was the day of the big carnival, and Kermit, Miss Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, Camilla, Rizzo, Pepe, Rowlf, Lew Zealand, Walter, and Scooter all went for a fun time. “This is such an exciting time”, said Fozzie. “I hope to eat a...

    What went wrong with Muppets from Space?

    What was the Get Smart line quoted? Maybe the next movie should feature The Electric Mayhem as the stars, with the other Muppets appearing throughout the film.

    I miss Rizzo!

    I remember when Steve Whitmire was interviewed by Tough Pigs in 2008, he said that he can't do the Mew voice anymore. And I thought Rizzo and Bean had the same voice as Mew (though after watching The Christmas Toy for the first time in six years, I can hear a difference). Speaking of Link and...

    Caroll Spinney Interview: Oscar the Grouch, Big Bird and Me

    The stuff about him not getting many/any residuals for the albums and Follow That Bird is interesting (and sad). I wonder what residuals he does get... I thought I read years ago that everybody who worked on the show still gets residuals when their stuff is aired and/or released commercially. I...

    Jim Henson's Red Book

    Here's something that's kind of cool http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2012/03/25/3251988/ I actually wasn't expecting any entries on meetings to sell things for rebroadcast. And it says that The Jim Henson Company gained all of ITCs ownership of The Muppet Show in 1988. I would have thought...

    Videos: "Kermit's Party" sponsored by Bounty Paper Towels

    But in here it's clearly not a swamp. Though it'd make sense for him to use the mansion for a party (I doubt many of his friends would want to attend a party in the swamp).

    Judging Your Own Creativity

    I like to be in both the "My work is perfect! I'm a genius!" mindset while also in the "Not everything I've done is great" mindset. Maybe it's because I'm a gemini. I also feel an egotistical attitude and a self-negativity attitude are good for comedy. When it comes to my fan fics, I actually...

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    Isn't it ironic how Spinney wrote an autobiography first and then Clash did, but the documentaries are in reverse order? Also, Spinney's autobiography was a lot better, and I'm more excited about his documentary... I don't have too high expectations for Clash's, and I sort of expected that for...

    Videos: "Kermit's Party" sponsored by Bounty Paper Towels

    Or maybe Crazy Harry could cause a big explosion, which would singe the house, requiring a Bounty clean-up. I wonder if there'll be more of these. I was thinking about how we got three in one day, then remembered that when The Muppets Kitchen premiered online, we got four at first. One...

    I miss Rizzo!

    He's in the bonus features on The Muppets blu-ray quite a bit, in the behind-the-scenes documentary and in the "screen test on the way to the walk-through". It is kind of ironic... Pepe seems to have been all over the promotion for the movie despite only having one big scene, and yet Rizzo seems...

    The "It's A Great Time To Be A Muppet Fan" Thread - No Pessimism Allowed!

    That's what I was thinking, too. And now we've got the Kermit's Party viral videos, which are great (even if they are really extended Bounty commercials). They're much better than The Muppets Kitchen and From the Balcony. And we got three in the first day (I know, four episodes of The Muppets...

    "I Am Big Bird: The Caroll Spinney Story" documentary in development

    I wonder how this'll be released (theatrically? Limited run? TV broadcast? Direct-to-video?). Lots of cool stuff in that trailer. A few things from Follow That Bird, which I can't tell if they're clips from the movie, or behind-the-scenes/b-roll/home movie footage. And a behind-the-scenes clip...

    Your Thoughts: "The Muppets" Theatrical Film

    I really hope that one of the main performers gets interviewed for one of the big Muppet websites soon, so we can see one of them give some insight on the film. I noticed that they only rebuilt six of the five babies from Bobby Benson's Baby Band, and had most of them wear bonnets. I guess...

    Muppet Freak is back...kinda

    Actually, the Muppets did get more exposure beyond once-a-year specials between 1984 and 1989. There's a number of guest appearances, PSAs, and a handful of direct-to-video series (the Playhouse Video releases, the Play-Along Videos, and the rare Interactivision releases... I feel I shouldn't...

    Favorite Online Series

    My favorite online videos series are The Angry Video Game Nerd, The Nostalgia Critic, Venus Spa, and Two Hot Girls in the Shower. I also like the Smosh "if (insert something here) were real" videos. I also like Homestar Runner and Fred, but I haven't watched either too much in years. In...

    "Put Down the Duckie" cameo question

    I wonder what else they did on the show. I know that all/most of the celebrities from the montages appeared after making seperate appearances on the show (I often wonder if there was another Simpsons appearance besides Monster in the Mirror, but either way they'd have to be animated as opposed...

    Little things we've noticed

    Noticed that in The Muppets, Kermit wears his black tuxedo quite a bit in the introductions. Sort of like in the first season when he'd often wear his purple tux during guest star introductions and the goodnights, though here he wears it in almost every introduction, going back-and-fourth...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppets on Blu-ray and DVD

    Tonight I watched the DVD, and it seems the DVD skips the menu and goes straight to the movie, and after the movie's over we see a menu for a few seconds and then the blooper reel automatically starts. Then there's a promo for Disney blu-ray, but I didn't watch the whole thing (so I don't know...
