    "Muppets Take Manhatten" Revisited

    You know, back in the 1990s, it seems like this was the hardest Muppet film to find a non-rental video copy of. Most video stores and libraries had it, but finding a copy to buy was hard... I remember back then seeing copies to buy at Suncoast (which I didn't go to often back then) and Kroger...

    Is There A Reason There's No New Figure Line?

    Recently, there was a line of Muppet figures spoofing Star Wars... I wonder if Disney should try more Muppet figure lines based on other popular franchises. Marvel superheroes comes to mind right now. Hmm, I wonder if there'll be new Muppet Star Wars figures when the new Star Wars movies...

    Dreams about Muppets

    Last night I dreamt that I watched the 1994 VHS release of The Frog Prince, and after the program there was a lot of extra stuff, like deleted scenes and special scenes for the video. There was a fade to black with text, reading "Miss Piggy was eaten by Sweetums", with Kermit reading the text...

    The Official " Cheapest Muppet Movie Ever" thread

    Although the unproduced Muppets in Space got merchandise (Welch's juice jars) around the time it was announced. In Jim Henson: The Biography, it says that the movie ended with Gonzo getting corporate funding, allowing for it to be produced in high definition... But I didn't think high...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    These last few days I've also been thinking about Muppet/Henson music publishers. It seems Henson had and now Disney has their own publishing companies for songs and music written especially for the Muppets. There's been such names as "Muppet Melodies" and "Fuzzy Muppet Songs", I think there...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Well, the cover for Learning Rocks has been posted on Muppet Wiki. It happened exactly a day after I made a comment about it not being there (I procrastinated on mentioning it for a few days). We technically don't know whether it'll be two full episodes or a mix of street stories and...

    The "You know what?" thread

    It seems like Atari, Nintendo, and Sega have all included their company names in the titles of various systems, but Sony and Microsoft don't. For years, I've only known the various Atari systems as "Atari", not "Atari 2600", "Atari 5200", and "Atari 7200" (or is that last one wrong?), though...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I'm also sometimes thinking about how before Jim Henson died, different home video companies would have the video rights to different productions, after he died video companies would have the video rights to nearly everything the company owned, and after the company sold the Muppets video deals...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I know we still have a month until Learning Rocks comes out, but does anybody else find it odd that the cover still hasn't been posted online? It seems the covers usually come out within a week of being announced.

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    A few times in recent months (including tonight), I've been trying to determine what Muppet productions are most/least obscure. I've been thinking in terms of how often they've been rebroadcast, whether they've had video releases (and how many releases), and a few other things. And maybe all...

    Questions about anything

    I remember seeing an episode of a show on The Disney Channel in 1991, but I can't remember what the show was called. I know it featured some kind of animals, but can't remember what animals. Here's what I remember about the episode: A kid character wants a dog, but his parents won't get him...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    I wonder if there's a list out there of who all has been the voices of Bullwinkle, Boris, and others since their voice actors passed away (most examples are in commercials). I think I've read that Cory Burton voiced Bullwinkle somewhere (Burton was also the narrator in the Boris and Natasha...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    I also often think about how the movies seem to be the most popular and most common of the Muppet productions. I think of The Muppet Show, Muppet Babies, and to a lesser extent A Muppet Family Christmas and Muppet Vision 3D as being just as well-known, but I keep thinking that, except maybe to...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    When I saw the title of this thread, I heard Elmo saying, "Guess what Muppet fans are thinking of today? Da-da-da-da!" When it comes to Sesame Street, besides what I said in previous posts, I'm often thinking about Out to Lunch, Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, Follow That Bird, early video...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    Today, I was at a flea market, and they had all of the Buena Vista VHS tapes (except for Vincent Van Moose). Now, I've seen all of the "Classic Stuff" volumes many times, my library has the first six, I've seen copies at many video stores, and I have most of them, but the "Funny Stuff" videos...

    What Muppet Fans Are Thinking About

    There's more Muppet stuff that's often on my mind (and I'm sure some of you won't be surprised by what). Among the other things that are often on my mind: What articles I intend to write for The Muppet Mindset. Boom Comics How 1992-1996 and 2002-2004 seemed to be the best times to be a Muppet...

    TV Tropes

    I wonder if a work could be considered "follow the leader" if it had already been in development but then rushed or released fairly differently than planned because of something similar that became a success. For example, Doug's First Movie was originally planned to be a direct-to-video...
