    Most disappointing episode of The Muppet Show

    I haven't seen either of the episodes that Gorgon Heap mentioned yet, but I would like to comment on something. After I first saw (non-compilation) episodes of The Muppet Show, I often speculated about the orders of sketches from the three guest stars featured in Rock Music with the Muppets who...

    Muppets in the crate

    In The Great Mupet Caper, when the crates that Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo were in hit the water, were the puppets radio controled, or were the performers underneath them in a situation similar to The Rainbow Connection from The Muppet Movie, or was it a little bit of both? I noticed in the ride...

    Main performers of silent characters

    Has anybody ever noticed that there have been quite a few minor Muppet characters who talk a lot (whenever they do appear), but don't have any consistent performers, yet there are also a lot of characters who are normally quiet, and their performers are pretty much consistent (at least if the...

    "I Hope That Something Better Comes Along" Performers

    I don't know if you've read the "Road to Hollywood" anthology at Tough Pigs (which is a description of an early script), but in the script, Statler and Waldorf appear at both resturaunts. As far as I know, only their scene at the El Sleezo Cafe is pictured in the book.

    What's that a reference to?

    New character ideas

    I didn't know that The Animal Show had a hippo character, but I probably should have known that if there were any hippo characters in any non-creature shop Henson productions it would have been The Animal Show. Anyway, I was thinking, maybe in contrast to a happy-looking dumb hippo, maybe he...

    Elmo's World: Homestar Runner

    I didn't make note of this in my script, but Dorthy ahd a small Homestar Runner PVC in her golfish bowl. And hopefully I don't have to describe what the Elmo variations on Homestar Runner and his friends look like. Let's just say that they all look like the characters, with Elmo's red fur.

    "I Hope That Something Better Comes Along" Performers

    I think he meant who performed Rowlf, since that scene had Kermit and Rowlf, two Jim Henson characters. Of course, Jim Henson might have manipulated Rowlf while somebody else manipulated Kermit. Since Miss Piggy had left before Rowlf was introduced, it's possible that Frank Oz performed him...

    The Return of "Muppet What-Ifs?"

    What if Muppets TV was broadcast in America, in addition to France, and had the regular performers dubbing their voices in english?

    Elmo's World: Homestar Runner

    It's twisted (assuming you mean that as a compliment, and not an insult). And it's proof that Sesame Street and Homestar Runner don't mix. I've had this idea for a year, but have procrastinated on writing it until I saw the new Muppet Show outline featuring Homestar Runner as a guest. That...

    Elmo's World: Homestar Runner

    Elmo: Now, how can Elmo learn more about Homestar Runner and his friends? Elmo knows! Elmo can talk to Homestar Runner's friends! (a knock is heard. Elmo answers the door. Pom Pom is at the door) Pom Pom: (speaking Pom Pom's language) Elmo: Oh, yeah, Elmo did say he'd like to talk to some...

    New character ideas

    I'm not completely against the idea, but if older frackles like Boppity and Gloat need to be rebuilt, and the budget doens't allow for both new frackle characters and rebuilt puppets of old ones, I would choose to have the old ones rebuilt. Or there could be a compromise, and one new frackle...

    Elmo's World: Homestar Runner

    Elmo: You know, Homestar Runner's friend Marzipan is a vegetarian, and she told Elmo all about it. (cut to all-animated sequence) Marzipan: (narrarating, as she is seen) Helo. I am Marzipan. I am a vegetarian. Vegetarians don't eat aything made from animals. Today, I am going to make a...

    Elmo's World: Homestar Runner

    Part 2 Elmo: And now, Elmo has a question fooooooor you! How many fluffy puff marshmellows will Homestar eat. Let's count. (Homestar Runer appears with a bag of Fluffy Puff Marshmellows) Elmo and Kids: One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Six! Seven! Eight! NIne! Ten! Eleven! Twelve! Thirteen...

    Elmo's World: Homestar Runner

    (the regular Elmo's World opening begins) Elmo: La la, la la, la la, la la, Elmo's World. La la la la, la la, la la, Elmo's World. Elmo loves his goldfish, his crayons too! That's Elmo's World. Hi, this is -- da da da da! -- Elmo's World. Elmo is very happy to see you today. And so is Dorthy...

    ZootyCutie's Muppet Show Outline-Homestar Runner

    In your mind, do you imagine the Homestar Runner cast to be animated or puppets? I know that some of the characters have appeared as puppets before.

    The Return of "Muppet What-Ifs?"

    What if the cast of Sam and Friends appeared in The Muppet Movie finale? What if Sweetums appeared at the wedding in The Muppets Take Manhattan? What if Thog appeared in The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years? What if Mr. Snuffleupagus appeared in A Muppet Family Christmas? What if the...

    ZootyCutie's Muppet Show Outline-Homestar Runner

    I like Muppets, I like Homestar Runner, and I like this fan fic. Though it seems a bit short in the last half (after the UK skit).
