    Relationship between Grover and Kermit

    I've never heard of the Health Minute skecth. What happens in it? And to think... another health-related skit featuring Kermit that could have been shown on Sesame Street last season (or in Happy Healthy Monsters).

    pieces of full-body muppets

    I've been wondering, for the full-body muppets, how much of those characters can come off? I know that Big Bird is a two-piece puppet, with the legs being a seperate piece from the rest of the body, connected to a pair of orange pants. I have read that Mr. Snuffleupagus is a one-piece...

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

    Was Once Ernie mentioned in a thread once that he saw the James Frawlry Muppet but couldn't remember if he was in the finale or not. I remember seeing Kermit in front of Miss Piggy and Fozzie (I used to think he was between them, but on closer examination he is in front of the middle of them)...

    Harvey Korman irony

    Do you have contacts with people who know about Eren Ozker? Also, I already knew that The Muppet Movie was kathy Mullens first job with the Muppets. There was a website that showed scans from every page of every issue of The Muppet Show Fan Club Newsletter, and one issue had a biography on...

    Lips question

    I have read a few times on some websites that Lips' hands were built to be permaneantly attached to his trumpet. Is this true? Did this info come from any official sources (like Of Muppets and Men)? If they were permaneantly attached, then I wonder how the puppet builders were able to have...

    "The Best of The Muppets from The Muppet Show"

    I like it. I don't know if Disney is reading this. So are the new Muppetisms and Movie Moments made up by you? I don't know how many Muppetisms are left, but another thing that would be good would be if they included the From the Balcony on-line shorts. I don't know what most fans would think...

    Lips question

    I have been wodnering this too. One of the first threads I started was about how Lips could play the trumpet. Whenever he plays, his fingers move. I always thought that his arms were controlled by wires, but I never see any arm wires on him. I have noticed that he has big sleeves, which...

    Pops falls in love

    That was a great chapter. Of course, it could have used some more meetings between Hilda and newer characters, like Beauregard and Lew Zeland, but it was still good.

    TMS 30th Anniversary Product Idea Thread

    Another great idea would be for a set of cards. Unlike the 25th anniversary trading cards set, which, as I understand (I've never seen those cards in person), only included 25 cards, all in the same package (which kind of defeats the purpose of trading, eh?), this set would include a lot more...

    "The Best of The Muppets from The Muppet Show"

    Here are my ideas for volumes 5-8. Volume 5 Choppin's Polaniase Scooter tells Kermit that JP Gross will give Kermit the payroll money needed if he puts some female wrestling tino the show Rowlf plays the piano while a chicken clucks and lays an egg At the Dance (from the Teressa...

    Harvey Korman irony

    Do you happen to know how Eren Ozker got her job with the muppets, or even if she had ever considered performing in more Henson productions? I have a feeling that she might have just been hired for The Muppet Show so that there would be a female performer. After all, I believe that Fran Brill...

    "The Best of The Muppets from The Muppet Show"

    Here is an idea for a special ten-volume compilation series, each with one backstage plot and an average of 18 sketches (not counting backstage scenes or really short skits), but no guest stars: Volume 1 Another Opening, Another Show Muppet News: News Flash For What It's Worth...

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

    Do you happen to know if there were any characters brought to the set who ended up not appearing in the finale due to a shortage of performers? Of course, I've read that most of the puppeteers who performed main Sesame Street characters only got to perform one character each, so I guess there...

    TMS 30th Anniversary Product Idea Thread

    Here's an idea for a 30th anniversary PVC collection. Each series would have ten boxes, each with one or two characters. The packaging design would represent the arches. There would also be a special ediition multi-pack set alongside each series. Series 1: Kermit/ Robin Miss Piggy & Foo...

    FanFic: The Muppet Show 30th Anniversary Special

    Those would be cool. I think I did mention Rowlf, but I forgot to include Baskerville, Louis Kazagger, Link Hogthrob, Dr. Strangepork, Shouting Lady (who you listed as The Loud 'at the dance' Girl), Wayne, Wanda, Fleet Scribbler, and Uncle Deadley. I debated over whether to include Lobbock Lou...

    Did you interract with her on the set of The Muppet Movie? Do you happen to know if she performed Janice in any scenes in that movie? I know she didn't perform janice in the finale, since Was Once Ernie said that Richard Hunt performed Statler and Janice in that scene, but did she perform Janice...

    Well, I started a thread for ideas for 30th anniversary product ideas. Anyway, I also thought that I'd list two more ideas for compilation DVDs. The first idea would have skits that haven't been included on any compilation videos of any kind. I've read the contents for all of the videos...

    TMS 30th Anniversary Product Idea Thread

    This year should be the 30th anniversary of The Muppet Show. What kinds of products would you like to see to celebrate? I think it might be too soon to release some new action figures, although it would be great if Disney and Palisades arranged to make a special deal to release a number of...
