    TV Alert: "A New York Christmas to Remember" honoring Jane Henson airs Christmas Eve

    So I read that Jane Henson created these puppets and they've been doing it for the last few years, only now actually broadcasting a performance. Was this fact known among Muppet fans? I was surprised to hear about Jane creating some puppets. Interesting fact. I'd say it was okay. Of course...

    The Muppets premiering on Disney Channel and ABC Family in January

    Don't know how I feel about them showing The Muppets twice back-to-back while leaving out The Great Muppet Caper (but I'll forgive them for not showing Muppets from Space, and understand them not showing The Muppet Christmas Carol out of season).

    2013: What Muppet stuff did you get for Christmas?

    I got Jim Henson: The Biography. And many of my presents were wrapped in Sesame Street wrapping paper.

    Video: Crack Master Sesame Street animation

    The Crack Master is not in as much as this as I had expected. Couldn't they have just removed that part from the segment and continued airing the rest for years? Of course this is a little different than I had expected. Maybe I didn't pay enough attention when reading the descriptions...

    Video: Crack Master Sesame Street animation

    When the title and some numbers appear, I wonder if that first number - 6 - is supposed to indicate this was from the sixth season. This was good. Maybe not great (aside from the rareness factor). Though the Crack Master scene was awesome. I wasn't expecting the others to be scared.

    Christmas Card from Robin

    I don't think Robin looks like Kermit at all. He just looks like a small Muppet frog. He doesn't have Kermit's eyes or collar, and his voice isn't similar.

    The Muppets premiering on Disney Channel and ABC Family in January

    So what's "Janewary"? My first guess was a month-long tribute to Jane Henson. I'm not surprised that The Muppets will be broadcast on The Disney Channel and ABC Family, especially after learning yesterday that The Muppet Movie will air on ABC Family in January. And you know, with Muppets...

    Phil Robertson "Fired"

    I'm not a fan of Duck Dynasty and don't really care either way if anybody from the show is fired or not for whatever reason, but yesterday me and my family were talking about this, and it got me thinking: The Duck Dynasty fans are probably most upset by this, and there are a lot of people...

    How The Grinch Stole Christmas Replaced by Two Regular Show Airings

    Hearing about Regular Show replacing a broadcast of How the Grinch Stole Christmas reminds me of the time in May 2002 when a broadcast of Greg the Bunny was replaced with an airing of The Bernie Mac Show (and it stayed that way for the rest of the month.... Greg the Bunny was soon dropped while...

    You Ever Notice...and What's the Deal...

    Can't remember if I ever asked this on the Muppet Central forum (I have wondered it a lot, and I asked on my Facebook wall today), but how is gravity a "law"? It's something that just happens. Breathing isn't a law. The ability to sleep or wake up isn't a law. Eating isn't a law. If the earth...

    Zoot's Enchanted Saxophone

    Maybe. A few years ago I decided to write a different story spotlighting each of the original five (can't remember if I did a Lips one).

    Questions about anything

    I recently wrote an article for The Mickey Mindset (heard of that site?) on the top ten Disney villains and included Megavolt (as well as The Big Bad Wolf). http://mickeymindset.blogspot.com/2013/11/ten-favorite-disney-villains.html And another contirbutor did a top ten list on the same...

    Zoot's Enchanted Saxophone

    So glad that some people hit the "like" button and I was notified, I was just thinking about and trying to remember this story the other day. I noticed a mistake I made at the end. I said that the bad guy escaped in a helicotper but then said that the plane exploded. A helicopter and plane...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    Well, here's my guess of who all will be included. I've guessed 180 characters (the cover says "over 150 characters", while the description says 200 characters). 1. ‘80s Robot 2. A. Ligator 3. Afghan Hound 4. Andy and Randy Pig 5. Angel Marie 6. Angus McGonagle 7. Animal 8.Annie Sue 9.Anthony...

    The Muppets Character Encyclopedia coming Feb. 7 2014

    If there are two different versions, I'll get the one for adults over the one that's geared more for kids. I wonder if anybody would get both versions. But I guess that's more of a rumor or something right now.

    Well, Kermit and Rowlf were around before 1970. I doubt they'll be absent (and Kermit is on the cover).

    Another Jimmy Dean release (with Rowlf) coming soon

    Well, there's going to be another DVD release of Jimmy Dean Show content, and Rowlf segments are confirmed to be included. More info can be found at: http://www.toughpigs.com/jimmy-dean-dvds/

    TV Tropes

    I thought I'd read that Phil Hartman and a few other late-1980s SNL actors provided some voices in that (though I wasn't sure if they were main characters or not).

    TV Tropes

    There's one thing that often gets mentioned, and I think I recently saw it mentioned somewhere on TV Tropes, but I think this fact might qualify for the "Common Knowledge" page. Not sure if it does or not, but I often see things saying that the success of Aladdin and Robin Williams being the...

    That's a good list. There's some characters I never thought about the inclusion of.
