    The Muppets head for Oz

    WARNING: Here be possible spoilers for the Oz books. Scroll past them if you do not want to be spoiled! Well, the biggest difference between the book and the movie was that, in the book, Oz was not a dream Dorothy had after suffering a head injury. It was a real fairyland that she not...

    Ever seen Scooter and Janice together?

    For that one, Travelling Matt and I figured that Jim was performing Janice while Richard was performing Scooter. It was the absence of Dr. Teeth that tipped us off; Jerry, Frank and Dave were performing their usual Electric Mayhem characters, and since Richard was performing Scooter and Dr...

    Professional Monkey Puppet on eBay. Angus Puppets

    *nearly falls over with laughter* I heard about this not from the forum, but from the Roddy McDowall mailing list thanks to Cheryl Ann, so I had to dash over here and comment on it. You really did a fantastic job on this one! I have to ask, which of Roddy's Apes characters did you model...

    Henson sells Muppets to Disney

    I'm on the fence with this one. On the one hand, I wish that the Muppets could have stayed completely in the Henson's hands. On the other hand, hopefully this move will prove to be beneficial to both parties in the long run. I like this thread better than the two Muppet communities over...

    Who's your favorite Fraggle?

    Good grief, it's taken me long enough to get around to this... Of all the Fraggles, Gobo is my favorite favorite. In fact, he's my favorite of my favorites (if that makes any sense). It's been that way since the first time I saw Fraggle Rock on TV (of which there only exists wisps of memory...

    The Wild Impresario. And it's not really a crush; more like general affection. -Kim

    Sending a tape in the mail

    It depends on how much the package weighs, plus how you send the tape or tapes (in an envelope or in a box). The easiest way to figure this out is to take it down to the post office (already in the envelope or box and addressed) and have them weigh it. -Kim

    Muppet Babies Closing Theme

    No, that's the ending theme to Muppet Babies: the theme song without the lyrics. A lot of cartoon ending themes, both then and now, are like that. -Kim

    Happy Birthday: Muppet Central's 6th Anniversary

    Six years, wow. I can only begin to imagine the party that will be had when the site reaches ten! 1. What is your first Muppet Central memory? Reading the tributes to Richard Hunt written by his fellow Muppeteers and by MC members. Those deepened my appreciation for him as a performer...

    Muppeteer duos

    You forgot Robin and Sweetums, and Biff and Sully! Richard and Jim were also a great duo. I mean, don't we all love to hate Statler and Waldorf? -Kim

    Funniest Muppet Moments

    This one is from the 'Of Muppets and Men' special. One of the behind the scenes shots is the Muppet performers doing the gargles for Lew Zealand's singing fish (from the Roger Moore episode). First they're debating just how they're going to do the gargles (how much water they need to take into...

    "I'm the green fairy"

    It's a reference to the Absinthe fairy in Moulin Rouge, and was part of the whole spoof of that musical that was in IAVMMC. -Kim

    More Muppet-related, "They Call the Wind Maria" was the song that Robin wanted to sing in the Bernadette Peters episode. -Kim

    Remembering Richard Hunt

    There was a short story I read for a creative writing class last year called "In the Gloaming" by Alice Elliot Dark. It was about a mother spending time with her adult son, who was dying of AIDS. At one point in the story, a friend of the dying young man mistakenly heard that the son had...
