    We Need Another Movie

    Or it will get canceled before every episode is even broadcast. See also The Jim Henson Hour, Little Muppet Monsters, and the first season of Muppets Tonight (though the remaining episodes eventually did air along with an extra season). Hopefully Disney plans on releasing each season shortly...

    The Muppet Mindset

    I never thought about that. Of course, it is a lot more common for Tough Pigs to have multiple posts per day, while The Muppet Mindset usually just has one. The Muppet Mindset started out with almost a new post each day (it helps that the site allows for guest articles while guest articles for...

    April Fools: Sesame Street Film Still Happening!

    Don't know if they were inspired or not, but it's interesting that this next one has been announced to take place in New York, while the others had the characters traveling (though going to Grouchland wasn't really far from Sesame Street, considering it's inside a portal in Oscar's can). Of...

    April Fools: Sesame Street Film Still Happening!

    Wow, I chose this as a subject for an April Fools joke two weeks ago, but now I saw that the movie really is still in development, only now it's going to be distributed by Warner Bros. instead of 20th Century Fox...

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    This is the first time I've seen that pointed out.

    Questions about anything

    I can't remember if it was this thread, the "you know what?" thread, or the "what's the deal" thread, but in one of these threads I brought up the fact that ABC Family seems to show two different edits of Home Alone. Then last night I read on TV Tropes that the channel also regularly shows two...

    April Fools: Sesame Street Film Still Happening!

    I hope to get started on writing my fan fic based on this either this week or next, but I must say that although my fan fic most likely won't include everything mentioned in the "press release", one thing I'm thinking about is the fact that I had it say that it reveals that Cookie Monster's home...

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    In Ernie's Big Mess, he lives in an apartment next to Big Bird's nest area. But books probably don't count.

    Same with Snuffy's cave.

    Sesame Street on SNL

    It seems like each performer had only one character in this, which would make sense if it were done live, but it's obviously pre-recorded.

    Is there an overrated/underrated Muppet production?

    What I meant in terms of a Duck Amuck-style thing not working in CGI is that it would be weird to see a paint brush or pencil used to torture the animated character if it was done in CGI, and I don't think seeing a moving arrow selecting things to torture the character with would be too...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    Been thinking about how the majority of Sesame Street anniversary/greatest hits albums tend to have at least a few tracks that feel a bit random (the same can be said for most character spotlight albums and videos). Which gets me trying to determine which one has the best representation of the...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    I don't think there was an official Rocky and Bullwinkle fan club. If there was, I wouldn't be surprised if the segments ended with them saying how to join (and wouldn't be surprised if those were cut from reruns and video releases, as the mailing address and membership probably wouldn't be...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    In The Moose That Roared, it is said that the Fan Club segments were made as a way of subliminally reminding viewers of the Rocky and Bullwinkle merchandise that was out there. Did anybody get a sense of that from the segments? I never did. The segments never featured any Bullwinkle merchandise...

    The "You know what?" thread

    After my post about the "Donkey Kong sucks" scene in Billy Madison, I decided to seek out the clip on YouTube to see if any of the commentors felt the same way, and a number of the comments were about what I was talking about. And I thought of a few more interpretations of the scene...

    Sesame Street on SNL

    I first heard about this appearance when Tough Pigs posted about it on Facebook, saying that every Sesame Street Muppet was in it. I jokingly asked about a few who I really wouldn't have expected, and then they gave a confirmation answer which I couldn't really tell whether it was sarcastic or...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Billy Madison, there's a scene where Billy tells a classmate that the best video game ever is Donkey Kong, and the classmate tells him that Donkey Kong sucks. Billy Madison came out in 1995, a year after Donkey Kong was revived with the Donkey Kong Country series, the first of which was the...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I've noticed over the years that Frank Oz has never provided audio commentary on any Muppet DVDs (not even The Dark Crystal or MTM). For awhile I wondered if that was because of his busy directing career, though he has provided commentary for some of his past films (Little Shop of Horrors, and I...

    Major Changes in store for Sesame Street Season 46

    It does look weird having Big Bird's doors removed and Oscar's trash can moved from its original location after all these years. If they thought it was outdated for Oscar's trash can to be on crates and piles of trash, couldn't they have put the dumpster in its original area? But it could be...

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    I didn't think Muppet Wiki's "Cookie Monster Sketches: Miscellanous" page had info on "King Cookie" before today - this morning I looked and didn't see it there (primarily looking at sketches with EKAs up to the early 1990s, and then at the bottom where sketches listed didn't have EKAs). But...
