I know that I've already asked something, but I have another question. This can either be sent next time around if not now. And I hope it isn't too personal, but here it goes...
Do you think that the Muppets would work well in a weekly half-hour narrative series? I'm talking about a regular...
For those who have seen it, or at least the credits, does anybody know if the show used the same writers for both live action and animation? If they were seperate than the live action writers could have developed the live action parts, and the animation writers could have developed the animation...
Some do. Especially in The Muppet Musicians of Bremen. Other talking chickens include the one at the end of Lullaby of Broadway in the Gilda Radner episode, and Gonzo's dancing partner in the Pearl Bailey episode. I feel like I'm forgetting about one or two.
I've read a quote from one of the writers of Little Mupet Monsters where he pointed out that the combination of Muppet babies, adults, and live action monsters was too much, and states that the puppetry was too good, giving an unfair comparrison between the puppetry and animation.
So, does...
I know that The Odyssey Chanel never aired Muppets Tonight, and the chanel was relaunched with part ownership from The Jim Henson Company after the series had been cancled, but does anybody know if maybe The Disney Channel had a contract to run the show during the time that Odyssey started...
On You Tube I watched the first episode of The Jim Henson Hour, and saw that the shows regular ending was like the one in The Secrets of the Muppets. I also saw The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson on you tube, and the Jim Henson Productions logo shown was like at the end of The Jim Henson Hour. It...
I thought of a good idea for a podcast episode, or at least for a Muppet Montage. My idea is a show/montage of Muppet promos. I'm not talking about ones that had newly-recorded footage, but promos for television shows, movies, specials, and videos. TV and video promos. What do you think of this...
We all know that Jim Henson hosted a pitch tape made for The Jim Henson Hour, but I thought I'd read somewhere that there was another pitch tape made as well, hosted by Kermit. I haven't seen anything about this at Muppet Wiki, but I'd once read that there was a pitch tape made after regular...
This Jim Henson Hour pilot was recently uploaded on You Tube, and I thought I'd post a thread here to see what others think about it.
It is rather interesting. The characters are cool, though I'm glad that better new characters were chosen for The Jim Henson Hour. It seems hard to tell if...
I forgot about another celebrity song: Sing. And now that I think about it, I don't think that was made for any specific specials. I think it premiered in the season 31 premiere (it's in that episode, and features guests from the 30th season).
I've noticed that many of the early Sesame Street specials seem to have similar opening sequences. Okay, maybe they are not the earliest (I haven't seen Julie on Sesame Street, Out to Lunch, The Grover Monster/ Jean Marsh Cartoon Special, or A Special Sesame Street Christmas), but I would say...
I didn't think it was very good. The only character in that sketch that I liked was Craniac, the one non-pig character. Then again, I don't care too much for Muppet pigs. But they should have tried to work Dr. Strangepork into the sketch (he did appear in one Bay of Pigswatch segment). There...
The song was caled The Wishing Song, and the guest was Madeline Kahn. This episode appears in the second season, and is currently available on DVD as part of the second season box set.
When I first thought this up, I only thought of having each disc dedicated to different decades and have several segments shown in random order, and then thought of the better idea to have segments grouped by characters and themes (I think it would be easier for kids to sit through themed...
I think they were starting to become more major before Jim Henson died. During the 1970s and 1980s, it seems like whenever a new Muppet project came along, The Electric Mayhem would be more likely to have a featured part than Bunsen and Beaker.
For example, four members of the band appeared...
I think I used to think of him as being similar to Bunsen, but he is also different from them. Bunsen and Beaker are scientists, and Digit was a robot, and a technician. If Dave Goelz didn't perfirn Digit then maybe he could have teamed up with Bunsen and Beaker on occassion, without it seeming...
Jerry Nelson was there, and hardly had any recurring characters. Statler was his only regular classic character on the show. More of Jerry Nelson's characters could have been given regular spots on the show. Robin could have hung out with (or been annoyed by) Andy and Randy. Lew Zealand could...
Enjoy this Sesame Street season 18 outline.
Scene 1
The Count tells the viewer that today, he's going to count. Telly appears and says that he'd like to count with The Count, and the Count counts Telly as one perons to count with. Big Bird then shows up and Telly invites Big Bird to count...
I've been thinking about the various Sesame Street songs that have had celebrity edits specifically Put Down the Duckie and Monster in the Mirror. Those segments were included in Sesame Street's only pledge-drive specials, Sesame Street, Special and Big Bird's Birthday or Let Me Eat Cake. Sesame...
And finally, my idea disc four line-up.
