Thinking some more, for years I've felt all the Muppet movies are well-known to the public at large, even the least successful ones like Muppets from Space and Muppets Most Wanted.... But in the last few months, in thinking about the "Jim Henson trilogy", The Great Muppet Caper seems to be the...

This is interesting. The whole trilogy is great, whichever one is my favorite often changes (though my profile has always listed GMC as my favorite; in fact, when I met Steve Whitmire at one of his convention appearances, I decided if he asked me which movie was my favorite - and I wasn't asked...

I know. But for a while I had wondered what episode would be the first to get the "trusted tag" taken out, and was happy to find the first such instance that I noticed (maybe there's some that slipped my radar). I figured it'd be an episode from the 1990s or later.

Recently I saw the Sing-Along video Things That Fly, where the main plot is that Kermit and Lindy want to help an alien get home. But throughout the video,as Kermit and Lindy look for ways to get her back home, she doesn't seem to be with them much, only popping up randomly in many of the...

I dreamt that I was on the set of Fraggle Rock on a day that Jim Henson was there, and was trying to ask if he was performing Cantus or Convincing John, or if he was going to perform in an outer space scene (even though he never did), or if he was just going to perform right hands/background...

Earlier last year when Frank Oz was promoting Muppet Guys Talking and talked about how the film could only be purchased via the official website, one of the things he said regarding his reasoning was that the Muppets were often unconventional. In a way, these videos do kinda reflect that...

I just saw that Muppet Wiki added images to one episode that was compiled thanks to trusted sources and took the "trusted sources" note out. Episode 3366. I wonder if this is the first episode to get images on the wiki after a script was used as the source for the episode page. EDIT TO ADD...

A few nights ago I dreamt I was at a flea market and saw what appeared to be copies of the Playhouse Video Muppet compilation videos, I saw a few on their sides, saw the image of Kermit on the side as well as the Playhouse Video logo but was a bit far to read the titles on the sides. So I took...

I meant to say years ago, not weeks ago.

I've determined The Leslie Mostly Show must have been dropped immediately after the twelfth season in terms of re-airing. Muppet Wiki added guides for every episode of season 13, none of them contain any Leslie Mostly sketches (and I checked "what links here" on Leslie Mostly), I think if none...

It does seem weird that, in regards to the episodes they can air, their rights for some episodes would expire while others wouldn't. Maybe certain clearances expired faster (which seems slightly less weird than what I'm thinking seems weird here), HBO probably paid for a certain number of...

Did you check to see if maybe they added additional classic episodes as replacements?

Episode 2925 has a Forgetful Jones insert called "On a Roll with Cowboy Cole". Could this be what's being referred to? It's listed in a sandbox page of "unidentified segments", listing insert segments that the wiki does not have photos of. It also lists episodes the segments appear in, and...

Do you suppose Martin Robinson's improvements of Snuffy came about because the cast finally got to see him? When Jerry Nelson (and Michael Earl) performed him, he was pretty much only seen with Big Bird and the kids, but five years after Martin took over, Snuffy could suddenly interact with...

I have seen that. In fact I also recall seeing Sam the Robot mentioned in one season ten page a long time ago, one that was compiled using CTW Archives material. Makes me wonder if Brian Meehl really did take over as Sam, which is mentioned in the 40th anniversary book, but that's the only...

A few weeks ago the wiki finally found the episode with the original rendition of "I Love Trash", episode 95. For years, the wiki had cited episode 96 as the episode with the original "ABC-DEF-GHI", though I don't really know the source (since that segment isn't listed at all in the CTW Archives...

Muppet Wiki has full episode rundowns for every season 13 episode, neither Chariots of Fur or The Sound of Music appeared in any episodes from that season, so their debuts would have to have been in either season 14 or 15 (the earliest known appearance of both are season 15 episodes).

After Muppet Wiki has recently been able to add a lot of episode pages from trusted sources, I've learned of a lot of episodes I really want to see. Episode 129 looks cool. This one has Oscar hosting the show, including interrupting the opening (I wonder if that's the first time the opening...

Other franchises to think about with this thinking: Star Wars- is it most fun to talk about the original trilogy (which most fans tend to like the best, at least those who grew up with only those)? The prequel trilogy (which tends to get the most hate)? The current trilogy (which isn't...

I can't remember if I've posted in this thread before (and don't feel like searching through all ten pages of posts before posting this), but I'd like to say they don't. Of course, as a kid, grade three and up, I feel like most people outside of my family and close friends (and I didn't have...
