    Flanderized Muppets?

    Sam the Eagle was on the news, and The Electric Mayhem was performing in a train station. Maybe not big ways, but still performing.

    Questions about anything

    Back in the 1980s (and possibly 1990s and 2000s), was it common for music video shows to begin with the first music video, without an opening title sequence or intro until after the first music video played? I noticed that both of The Gerry Todd Show segments from SCTV begin with music videos...

    Flanderized Muppets?

    And about the fart shoes, and maybe there is a better place to point this out, in many of the promos that scene comes after a clip of Kermit saying that the Muppets don't resort to cheap tricks, and I think there was an interview with either the director or one of the writers saying that the...

    John Tartaglia Interview

    He's already performed Gobo in some promos for Fraggle Rock on The Hub, including a series of "Ask a Fraggle" insertials.

    My Muppet Show App Discussion/Updates

    I've finally digitized Gonzo and Fozzie, and have gotten food for the kitchen (it feels weird feeding the food).

    The Great Muppet Caper and Muppet Treasure Island coming to Blu-ray December 10

    Even if outtakes, deleted scenes, and the original trailer don't exist, it would be great if they could include a commentary and even a photo gallery. I'd like to see a copy of the script included (there have been DVDs with the script as a bonus feature, maybe not too many but there have been...

    Flanderized Muppets?

    It also would have been weird if Baby Scooter could manipulate others by mentioning his uncle (though I guess it'd be funny if his uncle owned the nursery and he could get his way with Nanny as a result). Though by the time Muppet Babies began they pretty much dropped the "my uncle owns the...

    Flanderized Muppets?

    So if all the characters had to have those personalities and they needed an atheletic character, I feel that a baby Sweetums or Link Hogthrob could have filled this role. Or a baby Louis Kazagger...

    Is Kermit adventurous?

    Thinking about how Kermit was more interested in adventure as a baby then when he grows up, it's similar to Tommy from Rugrats. As a baby Tommy is very adventurous, but on All Grown Up* he's more interested in filmmaking (and adult Kermit is involved in the entertainment industry). Wow, Kermit...

    The Great Muppet Caper and Muppet Treasure Island coming to Blu-ray December 10

    I've been thinking about how many of the Muppet movie DVDs (and Blu-Rays) seem to have a small amount of features, particularly GOOD features (even if that's not entirely true... it seems like the original DVDs of MCC, MTI, and maybe also It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie and The Muppets'...

    Questions about anything

    Something I've been wondering, and maybe I should watch the DVDs myself until I can determine it, but at what point during the run of The Simpsons did Flanders become "Flanderized"? I had assumed it was during the second or third season (on the first season commentary it was mentioned that...

    John Tartaglia Interview

    That was a good interview. Interesting how he joined when he was 16. I didn't think a Muppet performer could join when that young. I never knew about J.J., or Kingston's gang. I wonder if any clips are online. I searched for the character on Muppet Wiki but couldn't find him. John...

    Little Muppet Monsters Revelation...

    Suddenly, I wonder if any additional animated segments might have been completed but never edited into the live-action episodes. Like if they completed some animation but CBS wasn't going to bring it back until they had enough completed shows, and then canceled it. When thinking about the...

    Flanderized Muppets?

    Hmm, you know, the original script for the String Quartet sketch referred to Mahna Mahna as "Harry", even though he's not identified by name in the script.

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

    What's the deal with the fact that the original Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Treasure Island soundtracks were not released on Walt Disney Records? Disney owned the distribution rights to those films, so probably could have. It makes sense that MCC was released by BMG Kidz though the Jim...

    The Great Muppet Caper and Muppet Treasure Island coming to Blu-ray December 10

    With the current announcement that it'll include "Let the Good Shine Out" but supposedly won't include the whole MTI Sing-Along video (as far as we currently know), I wonder what it would be like if all of Disney's Muppet movie DVDs contained clips from existing productions... Like if The...

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

    I have noticed bad language in PG movies, but very few G movies, normally just the "H" word (examples including The Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie, The Great Muppet Caper, and Muppet Treasure Island). And in those cases it seems like less of a big deal to me than South Park airing in...

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

    Really? There's still G-rated movies? And they have swearing? I had no idea there was swearing in G-rated movies. Man, why am I so behind on these kinds of things regarding modern pop culture?

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

    Lately I've noticed that Comedy Central has been showing reruns of South Park during daytime hours. Really??? Given how vulgar the show is,I'm surprised they can consider putting it on during the daytime. Now that I think about it, should I also wonder how any channel can show reruns of...
