    My Version of Behind the Scenes of "The Muppet Movie"

    I'm trying to figure out what you mean. I don't see how nothing that is not supposed to happen on-camera happens on-camera. I know of times when things that weren't supposed to happen on-camera happened on-camera (call it improv).

    Sweetums in TMM and GMC

    Henson.com used to have storyboardss from the opening sequence for GMC on it's page for The Great Muppet Caper. Storyboards for the whole scene weren't there, but I recall in the storybards that Sweetums was referred to as "street cleaner Sweetums".

    The ask Jim Lewis thread is now open

    It's a shame that you couldn't remember the name of the Muppets Tonight band. So "Foam" was at the end of the title. The Jim Henson Hour Band was called Solid Foam. Weird that two bands would have similar titles. And the band member you mentioned was named Jowls. I think he was the only member...

    the bucket that stuck to Beaker's head

    In The Muppets at Walt Disney World, when the bucket falls on Beakers head at the beginning, and when it falls back on later when it blasts off and back on, does anybody have any idea how it was done? Could a string have been attached to the bucket so it could be pulled off and then the tape...

    How Long Did This Last?

    I read somewhere that the epsidoe number sequences were used during the firs tsix seasons, and then the show started having the episode number during the opening. I might need an alibi, as I could be wrong on the exact seasons. But if you check the pages on each season at Muppet Wiki, the page...

    Sweetums in TMM and GMC

    I would like to talk about Sweetums' appearances in the first two Mupet movies. In The Muppet Movie, when Sweetums was itnroduced, Mad Man Mooney just introduced hima s his Jack. When Kermit mistakenly thought that was his name, Sweetums said "Jack not name, Jack job!", but he didn't...

    My Version of Behind the Scenes of "The Muppet Movie"

    I have noticed that in the first screening room scene, just as the lights go off and the film is about to start, Fletcherbird and Mean Mama get out of their seats (it looks like Fletcherbird just stands up, but Mean Mama definately leaves the room). Do you happen to know if there was any meaning...

    my friend has early episodes!!!

    In my mind this would have been different, thoguh. The season 35 bits were probably a minute or two long, had celebrities talking about their favorite moments, and short clips were shown. What I had in mind was having a complete clip shown before the opening, without any introductions or people...

    The "Classification/Sorting" Song?

    On Old School Vol. 1, the chapter listing for episode 276 lists Sorting Song, which, when clicked, goes to One of These Things.

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    I remember that before I saw the Vincent Price epsiode one of my friends told me about an episode that he saw where Kermit almost got eaten by a monster and then almost got eaten by the guest. He couldn't remember the name of the guest, and when I asked him which monster it was, he didn't know...

    Which Meant More to Bert?

    You know, usually when I see paperclips on the ground, I actually pick them up and take them home, but I don't keep bottlecaps, even though bottlecaps look a lot cooler and funner.

    Which Meant More to Bert?

    I wonder if there had ever been any cosnideration to have The Count counts Bert's bottlecaps or paperclips. I don't know if The Count would discriminate against counting boring things, but Bert has a large number of bottle caps. However, his supply of paperclips seemed small in Christmas Eve on...

    "If I ran the Muppets" thread. Post YOUR good ideas HERE!

    You know, now that I think about it, I don't think I had ever envisioned having the Sesame Street Muppets in that game idea. I can think of special moves for the Muppets, but not for many of the Sesame Street Muppets. Sure, Oscar could throw trash at opponents, Bert could make a chain out of his...

    Vincent Price vs Alice Cooper

    I wouldn't be surprised if Nickelodeon flat-out chose not to air the Alice Cooper episode (or the Raquel Welch episode), but I never saw the Vincent Price episode on Nickelodeon, even though I know that it was broadcast on Nick.
