Also, Herbert Birdsfoot doesn't appear in A Muppet Family Christmas. It's much easier to see who all is in the various crowd scenes in that speical than in The Muppet Movie finale. Also, while TMM featured nearly every Henson creation, and while it would be appropriate for The Mupepts: A...
(Oscar is in his trash can)
Oscar: Ugh! This street is celebrating the number five, and for no good reason, too! I hate anniversaries! Nothing good ever comes out of them.
The Mudman: Mud delivery for Oscar the Grouch!
Oscar: Well, it's about time my mud come here!
The Mudman: And due to...
The final scene (well, the last scene before Sweetums jumps through the screen, anyway) features hundreds of Muppets, almost every Muppet in existence at the time, with the main exception of the earliest-created Muppets (the Sam and Friends cast, Wilkins and Wontkins, etc). There are some...
The following fan-fic is a fake script for a fake fifth anniversary special.
(The episode number sequence for episode 5 is shown, as a voice-over talks)
Announcer: The following program has been brought to you by the number 5.
(fades to black, and now the scene is of a night sky with...
Old School Vol. 1 and The World According to Sesame Street are currently the last DVDs featuring Kermit. Kermit will probably appear in Old School Vol. 2.
I've noticed that in the Marty Feldman episode, right before the Aladdin sketch, Kermit tells Marty that he needs to know what the next story is so that he will know what he needs for casting and props. Shouldn't Kermit have planned ahead and known what stories were going to be performed?
I hope you don't mind me listing "did you notice" facts about other episodes. Here it goes...
MARK HAMIL:
In Six String Orchestra, Scooter is in a bedroom and wearing his regular clothes at the beginning and end, with his clothing being changed in the middle as Scooter fantasizes about...
I was thinking about how this set had the Weezer video, and wonder if Disney will consider any of the following as extras on future sets...
*The pre-recorded video footage shot for The Muppet Show on Tour shows (and if any footage was video tapped of the actual live shows, maybe some...
That sounds similar to the skit where Big Bird had Grover do two chin-ups, over and over again, until finally, Grover was done demonstrating the number two, and then Big Bird wanted Grover to do 18 chin-ups.
I wonder why two anything muppets appeared in the Marty Feldman epsidoe, as opposed to more recognisable characters, like Herry Monster, Sherlock Hemlock, Guy Smiley, Biff, Sully, Gladys the Cow, or The Amazing Mumford.
Sweetums is the only full-body monster seen in the Vincent Price...
I've noticed a lot of this stuff. Have you noticed that in the Elton John epsiode, Janice is the only member of the Electric Mayhem to speak, and it's only during Veterinarian's Hospital? Of course, I think that Floyd and Janice made some soft "ahhhh" singing sounds in Goodbye Yellow Brick Road...
If this show is true and the Muppets are seen in full-body shots for most of the show, I wonder if this effects the possibility of bringing back many of the olde,r more obscure characters, who might not exist in the form of a puppet with legs built. Would Disney have certain obscure characters...
I like how the last two shows have included audio samples of characters from the same performer. Though in the first one, when comparing Jim henson's voices, I think it would have been better to have chosen a song where Dr. Teeth pretty much sings by himself, such as Money, Poision Ivy, or You...
It seems like Kermit and Grover started to appear together less starting in the 1980s. Of course, it also seems like there was a brief "revivial" of Kermit and Grover as a team during the late 1990s, with two new Kermit and Grover sketches (Muppet Wiki mentions two very similar-sounding...
The skit about Bert's bottle caps is transcribed at Tough Pigs, in the Ernie and Bert Anthology, so I guess that would means that Danny Horn has a copy. I don't know if Danny Horn has or would upload anything on You Tube, though. But maybe he's made trades regarding that clip with people who do...
