    Video: The Muppets "The Ex-Factor" Episode 6 Promo

    I actually saw a promo for this episode somewhere before last Tuesdays episode. Only it focused on different clips - it seems to focus on a subplot where the guest star goes on the road with The Electric Mayhem. EDIT:

    The Muppets Episode 5 - Walk the Swine

    Aside from including elements of The Muppet Show Theme into this shows theme song (and appearances by a number of obscure characters, if that would count), has this show had any references for the die hard fans? I haven't really noticed any. One way that would have made for a good way to end...

    The Muppets Episode 5 - Walk the Swine

    So far this is one of my least-favorite episodes, along with Bear Left Then Bear Right (I guess there's something about episodes where most of the action focuses on single characters away from the show). After seeing the promos I wasn't expecting this one to be great. But not every episode of a...

    Video: The Muppets "Walk the Swine" Episode 5 Promo

    At the :33 mark, when Kermit has his hands together and makes that face, he looks like Constantine.

    Happy That Day from Back to the Future II!

    It's similar to what was mentioned in some of the DVD bonus features (and I think I heard that it was mentioned in the junior novelization), there it was said that Doc needed Marty to clean his garage, and he offered him 50 dollars and use of his music equipment (I think I've also read that he...

    Happy That Day from Back to the Future II!

    I was thinking about the scene where Doc and Marty see the cops taking away Jennifer, Doc tells Marty they can't clear things up with the cops, remarking "what do we do, tell them that we're time travelers? They'd have us committed." Now that is a good point, except that they do have proof of...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I wonder what the ratings were like for Muppets Tonight when it aired on The Disney Channel. When Kirk Thatcher was interviewed for The Muppet Mindset, he said that when the show was on ABC, the head of the network was mainly interested in what shows attracted the 18-38-year-old male...

    May You Always

    I saw in a Muppet Show Fan Club newsletter that when Big Bird appeared on The Muppet Show, the Big Bird puppet was too fragile to go into air plane storage (not sure if it was just the plane used then or if it's all planes), so the top half of the costume had to have its own seat. I always...

    Happy That Day from Back to the Future II!

    No. There was The Wonder Years. There was also the short-lived Oliver Been.

    Happy That Day from Back to the Future II!

    I thought Everyone Hates Chris was the big 1980s show (after That '80s Show failed). I'm surprised that there still hasn't been a sitcom taking place in the 1990s. Seems like each decade now gets a successful sitcom two decades later. Then again, most of them begin in the late half of that...

    Happy That Day from Back to the Future II!

    We also still have to use our hands for a lot of things, meaning we all play with baby toys. Though ironically, some video game systems have motion control, meaning you can play some video games without using your hands. The movie incorrectly predicted that video games would lose popularity...

    I was just looking online, and saw that there have been season sets, but they were released in countries outside of the US.

    The Muppets Episode 3 - Bear Left Then Bear Write

    It seems like this would have been a good episode for Becky to appear in, maybe she could have talked to Fozzie about his decision, or traveled with him. So when Fozzie had trouble hanging up, why didn't Kermit just hang up from his end of the phone? It'd be one thing if Kermit left the phone...

    Why haven't some older videos been re-released?

    I thought that Bert and Ernie's Word Play was rereleased by Genius and Warner Home Video. I thought Genius rereleased pretty much everything Sony Wonder put out on DVD, and that Warner Home Video rereleased everything that Genius put out (including the rereleases), though I don't know for sure...

    Goosebumps Thread

    Well, I saw the Goosebumps movie yesterday, and it was good. I noticed during the credits it said "based on the Goosebumps book series written by R.L. Stein and created by Paperback Press" (or was it Scholastic that got the "created by" credit?). I thought R.L. Stein created the book series...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I can't believe I made that mistake (though to be fair, '80s Robot's voice does sound a little like Bunsen).

    The Muppets Episode 4 - Pig Out

    I mentioned this in another thread, but when it comes to characters who don't appear on the show, whether the writers can't figure out a way to work them in, or if Bill Prady doesn't think they fit the shows format, it would be great if there would be some viral videos starring them. But I...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I've noticed that Dave Goelz seems to have performed a lot of characters involved in science or technical work. There's Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, he now performs Chip, and he's performed robots Digit (who was also a technician) and '80s Robot. And while he's not a scientist or technician, Goelz also...

    The Muppets Episode 4 - Pig Out

    I wonder if she calls the Chef "Megan". At Comic Con I think they said that the show is on after his bedtime. But there are a lot of daytime scenes where he could come in.

    The Muppets' 60th Anniversary Trip

    And now for some facts about the development of this fan fic. As I was deciding on how to end it, I thought up a few additional endings: 1. Instead of tying Constantine to a rocket and blasting him away (and landing back in the Gulag), Blingo would have locked up Constantine (I also...
