    Herbert Birdsfoot presents Making Loud Noises Without Talking

    I had thought about having Kermit be the star, but then I changed my mind and decided to have it star Herbert Birdsfoot instead. Here is an idea I thought of after I had completed this story: Herbert Birdsfoot: (walking up to Lefty) Hey, can you.... Lefty: SHhhhh!! Herbert...

    performing the Two-Headed Monster

    I have noticed a few other times whe it looks like performers were performing with their left hands.... cIn The Muppet valentine Show, when Kermit reported on the planet Koozebane, he held his microphone with his right hand, so Jim Henson must have perfrmed him with his left hand. I have...

    Biff and Sully present Loud and Quiet

    I don't know, but I have read some posts from Was Once Ernie where he mentioend that Richard Hunt originally was mainly a background performer, performing right hands and the back half of Mr. Snuffleupagus. I don't know when Richard started performing voices on a regular basis, but somehow...

    performing the Two-Headed Monster

    I have been wondering something about the Two-headed Monster. I know that one performer performs the right head, and another performs the left head, but for the performer that performs the right head, how is the right hand operated? Does the performer of the right half perform the head with his...

    Dreams about Muppets...

    I have had all kinds of dreams about Muppets. Here is a listing of some: Back when I was in the third grade (1992), I dreamed that I was watching a scene with Dr. Teeth telling Zoot and Lips to blow their horns, and they blew on command. Around a similar time, maybe before the...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    I have thought of a somewhat clever way to arrange the set. Let me know what you think of this arrangemnt: Disc 1: Complete Shows (2-4 complete, uncut hour-long episodes, maybe they can be the first four season premiers. Of course, that could allow the disc to be called "The start of the...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Whether or not the people in charge read these forums does not mean that we will get exactly what we want. After all, the people at palisades read this forum diuring the time that the Muppet action figures were in production, and while several suggestions were taken, there were also a lot of...

    Guess That Shape and Color

    I was at a store today and saw a new DVD called "Guess That Shape and Color". I had read about this several months ago, on the first Muppet Newsflash Forum (though I think it had a different title listed). I didn't buy this DVD, but looking at the packaging and reading the description, it looks...

    Your Thoughts: Emmet Otter DVD

    I rented this DVD recently, and I give it four stars. It has been mentioend that the main feature was edited due to the edited version being a better master than the original master. owever, watching the deleted/ altered scenes, the video quality doesn't really look too different from the...

    Biff and Sully present Joke Telling

    Yes, but they are also all commonly told jokes. I didn't realize that all of the jokes were from the ventreleoquist joke untill you mentioned it. I often wonder where all of these jokes originated.

    The Sales Pieces

    Disney owns the rights to the Muppet Meeting Films, where Grump is the most major in, so I'm sure that Disney owns the rights to both Grump and Leo.

    New Talk Show: Late Night Buffet

    I wonder if this is really true or a joke. I am suspicious of this. The page says that it is from The Jim Henson Company, and not Disney (though Henson could still be involved). Also, it says that it will be on TBS. I would think that Disney would want it on one of it's own channels, rather than...
