No, The Muppet Movie is about starting the band. EDIT: Oops, I misread that as that they're both about getting the band back together.

People keep mentioning that people will want to wait until it's on Netflix, but there's no guarantee that a movie will come to Netflix once it's on video. Is there an estimated time between the average gap between the theatrical release and Netflix premiere of a movie? Fans might need to wait...

A while back I pointed out how it seems like the weirdest sketches on Sesame Street are not Muppet segments but animation (like the one with the duck brushing his teeth or the "Arthur and Annie look for A" bit or maybe "Cracks"), but this is probably one of the weirdest Muppet bits on the show...

Last night I dreamt there was an online commercial starring Rizzo, in which he talks about a new video format. The video format looks like an audio cassette, but then you put it into some odd-looking object, and out comes a film strip. And also, a car drove past Oscar's trash can, ripping...

One thing I'd like to see for the 60th anniversary is a special web series focusing on minor/supporting characters. Maybe call it "Meet the Minor Muppets". It could be like a cross between Pepe's Profiles and Disney Drive On, have Walter hang out with the more obscure characters (since Peter...

One thing I've noticed about the movie mindset is that, so far, most of the articles have been about action/adventure movies, and recently-released ones (or upcoming ones) at that. I recently did an article on the top five sequels that are better than the first, so that provides some variety...

In It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, there's that scene where Charlie Brown tells Lucy that he's been invited to Violet's Halloween party, and she brings his spirits down by pointing out that there were two lists, one to invite and one not to invite, and that Charlie Brown must have been...

I'd also like to see Bob sing "Feeling Groovy". And the full English video for "Spinning Wheel". And I'd like to see the segment where Ernie and Bert share jellybeans again (has anybody had that clip? I don't think Muppet Wiki even had a picture from that segment, though pictures do appear in...

I'd like to see any of the Buddy and Jim segments that are not on YouTube. And I know that either episode 2 or 3 has a claymation segment involving the letter E, which I'd like to see. I'll have to check Muppet Wiki to see what else appears in those episodes.

Little Muppet Monsters was sort of like that, with the stars being new monster characters, and the Muppets playing supporting roles (and primarily featured in animated segments). The Jim Henson Hour and Muppets Tonight also had a lot more focus on the new characters than on established...

One thing I wonder is, regarding first appearances, why did the book use the Muppets Tonight production order as opposed to the broadcast order? It seems like Muppet Wiki was used as a reference, and so in finding first appearances, the broadcast orders should have been used.

This is something I've been wondering about for the last few days, and I don't really expect anyone to know but maybe some do. Back in the 1980s, there were two Muppet Show on Tour shows (and a few Muppet Babies Live shows), and then they stopped. I wonder why they didn't continue with these...

One thing that I wonder is when the Goosebumps suddenly became as popular as it did. The first books came out in 1992, I first heard of them at least a year later, and I sort of feel like the popularity erupted around 1995. Not only is that when I had really started collecting and obsessing over...

In the last few days, I've been thinking a lot about the Goosebumps book series by R.L. Stein and thought I'd start a thread for the series. I first heard of Goosebumps when I was in the fourth grade, the 1993-1994 school year, when my teacher read us "Let's Get Invisible". Then I heard that...

And now I'm wondering if Monster Maker and Living with Dinosaurs would have made great feature films (as opposed to being hour-long specials as part of The Jim Henson Hour). They'd likely be cheaper to make than The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth. Then again, it's hard for me to pay attention to...

In the last few months I had started thinking about how there doesn't seem to be any other websites like the three Mindset websites by Ryan Dosier. And maybe there are and I just don't know about them, but I feel there should be various similar blogs that allow fans to send in articles. Star...

I am a bit mixed on this. On one hand, most of these shows are not as well-remembered to the general public, don't seem to have cult fanbases, and probably won't be released in complete series/season sets anytime soon, but on the other hand, it was steady work for the company. Today I've been...

The Muppet Mindset has started a four-part article on 45 Sesame Street moments from 45 fans: http://muppetmindset.wordpress.com/2014/11/13/45-memories-of-sesame-streets-45th-anniversary-part-1/ Also, there's now another spin-off website, The Movie Mindset.

As you may or may not know, many websites have been doing articles about the 45th anniversary, and Tough Pigs has compiled most of them: http://www.toughpigs.com/sesame-street-was-everywhere-this-week/

Although there hasn't been much celebration, in the past few days there's been quite a few online articles about the shows anniversary. There's been interviews with a few members of the cast, Sesame Workshop has posted a few things about the anniversary on social media, and this week The AV Club...
