Watching GMC today, I just had to wonder: does anyone know when the first time that Animal shouted these famous lines? For some reason I don't remember, was it GMC? It seems like it should have been earlier, yet I can't recall when that might be.

I dunno if anyone's ever created a thread about this (there probably has been), but I thought it might be nice to talk about the fragile aspects of some figures and how easily some seem to break. Figured this might be a nice reference for people to choose which figures might be the most durable...

Apparently a new 22" Elmo toy is being released this fall, which hugs you and also responds to your hugging, positioning of him: http://www.abc15.com/dpp/news/national/new-elmo-hugs-you-back

http://www.seacoastonline.com/articles/20130207-ENTERTAIN-302070331 I'm not even sure exactly what this is, but I thought it looked interesting enough to garner a post...anyone know anything more about this?

I was just thinking about how in this past movie Peter Linz suddenly rose from a minor performer to one of the main ones. So now I'm curious: what will the next movie bring him? Obviously he's still going to be Walter, but are we going to see him with some more background characters, small new...

This is probably a rully stupid question, but I'm gonna ask it anyway. In the TMS days, when you look at Kermit, Robin, or about any frog closely, you can see all sorts of tiny little specs of fuzz all over them. Yet on newer productions, you can't. Is this a matter of material used to make the...

Kinda a two-fold thread based on the link below...one, Leslie is appearing at the Augusta Curtis Cultural Center in Meriden, Connecticut, and two, there's a small interview with her involving some of her Muppet work...

The Muppets have had such a rich history of celebrity cameos that I thought they'd be a great topic of discussion. I love basically all the cameos in TMM. Every one of them is perfect. Milton Berle, Bob Hope, Carol Kane, and especially Steve Martin are particularly awesome in that movie. Aside...

Sorry, I would have made both of these apps into one thread, but this one somehow missed my attention until now, so I suppose to threads will suffice. So this app was also announced recently. Very interesting technology used here, I'm once again taken aback at this.

You know, many people criticize The Muppets Christmas Carol for being too human central or having bad casting choices, which makes me curious. If you were a shaping force in the production of this movie, what casting would you have changed to make the movie a bit more Muppety? One that comes...

Since it seems like the idea of the MC awards is pretty much something that isn't going to happen anytime soon, I've been thinking about an idea that was originally raised by bannanasketch and beakerboy last year when everyone was talking about whether we should do the awards. The idea...

This app was apparently announced a few days ago. A good many news articles popping up about it.

21 years ago today, Richard Hunt left this world. I figured a thread in honor of the great man would be fitting (forgive me if one was made that I am not aware of). Thank you, Richard, for all that you've done. ;):eek::flirt::boo::grr:

Watching "The Muppets" today, I have to raise the question: am I the only one who thinks it is so un-Kermit like for him to be OK with the kidnapping of Jack Black after a few minutes? I mean, I would think that it would take more for Kermit to agree than a "We all agreed that a celebrity is not...

http://kidscreen.com/2012/11/14/pajanimals-hit-the-road-with-first-live-show/ JHC is working with Red Light Management to produce a live Pajanimals show, scheduled to begin touring March 7, 2013.

If anyone's been watching the Muppet smilie thread, it somehow turned into a discussion about a potential wiki detailing Muppet Central lingo, past events and things of note so that members can find the info they need to guide them through their MC experience. Now there was a wiki through...

I was looking at Kermit's Muppet Wiki page today, and I noticed something interesting: they had a picture of his official Facebook profile from the fan-a-thon last year, and on it said that Kermit studied at Tadpole College. Then I found Miss Piggy's and her profile says that she studied at the...

I was watching a TMS episode last night, and watching the theme, a longtime wondering that I've always had came back to me, and now that I have a whole forum to discuss it with, I thought that we should. In the opening of TMS, when the five monsters come out at the beginning, Sweetums is there...

This is something else I've been thinking about: Muppet fandom expression. Many of us have mentioned that we express our fandom to a large variety of people, yet we never really talk about how we do it, when we do it, how often we do it, etc. We just seem to take it as a fact of life that we do...
