    New Video: Ringing of the Bells

    :confused: I am confused as Beaker and Waldorf are both performed in this video as the same people who have performed them for nearly 20 years. By the way, did anyone else notice how great Eric's Animal is sounding? If it was Eric's Animal. I could have sworn it was Frank! Also, very...

    I miss the real Kermit

    Thank you for posting that, dw. No one knows the why, but as for when and how, there were two television appearances in September/October in which Kermit was not Kermit. He wasn't played by Steve. At the VMAs, Lady Gaga brought faux-Kermit as her date, and earlier in the year faux-Kermit...

    I miss the real Kermit

    This is really... insane. Not three months ago, the boards were in an uproar that Disney tried to replace Steve... now he's not good enough again? I suppose this is an argument that shall remain as long as there are Muppets. I love Kermit. He is one of the good things in life. It is true that...

    New Video: Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody!

    Two things about the video: One - I LOVE Floyd's jacket. Two - Did anyone else notice that the Swedish Chef is wearing a wedding band?

    Final Season DVD set error on Wembley's Flight! Anyone else?

    I'll say you had an error on that disc! The Vincent Price episode isn't even part of Season 2! :p:p:p Sorry. Couldn't resist.

    I miss the real Kermit

    Well, Steve made him into that Kermit for a while, and people complained that he was too mean and snarky. It's a no-win situation, I'm afraid.

    Felt?

    I use felt for mouths, some noses (such as anthropomorphic animals [which is redundant]), inside ears on said anthrophomorphically redundant critters, eyelids, and bags under eyes. I don't personally like using it for the actual body or head. I don't like the way the seams look. I also don't...

    The Muppet Mindset

    Maybe it's because they're concerned that kids might get infected by the evil Beaker bug if they're exposed to Muppet websites.

    New Video: Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody!

    Something that amazes me about this video is that typically Muppet fans are divided over a project. There probably hasn't been a production since Jim was alive where there wasn't at least a few who had only negative things to say about it. That includes the other virmups. This is the first...

    A thought on the use of the word "comeback"

    Copy/Paste this while you're at it: "I know I drive some people crazy with what seems to be ridiculous optimism, but it has always worked out for me." - Jim Henson. Let people be optimistic, eh?

    A thought on the use of the word "comeback"

    Yeah, sort of a comeback to celebrity status. When you think about it, they've been in (and are going to be) in the media more this month than we usually see them all year. There hasn't been a whole lot of Muppet stuff this year, but since the release of the BoRhap video, it seems people are...

    A thought on the use of the word "comeback"

    Well, there was one article. Don't recall where it was, but it was outside of the Muppet fan community. And a LOT of people noticed the change, and while they weren't as upset as many of us were, they did express that something was wrong with the performances. I agree, this isn't "year of the...

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Thanks, prawnie! I wonder if anyone out there does have the Let a Frown Be Your Umbrella album on mp3.

    Lots of MUP3's, Wanna Trade?

    Does anyone have the Muppet Movie soundtrack? And, this may be a bit of a hard one to locate, but does anyone have the "Let a Frown Be Your Umbrella" album?

    Muppets to appear at Rockefeller Center Wednesday, Dec. 2nd!

    A quick warning to anyone who might jump on this, it appears from this footage that Kermit may not be puppeteered by Steve here. Probably because Rizzo is more prominently featured. Both are voiced by Steve, so don't panic! :p

    Steve Whitmire as Link Hogthrob

    It sounds like... Link Hogthrob? Seriously, though, if you have Kermit's Swamp Years (or if you can get it from the library) on DVD, watch the outtakes. There's a moment where Kermit plays the "egotistical actor." Steve does his Link voice there... Or rather, Kermit impersonating Link...

    New Video: Muppet Bohemian Rhapsody!

    Could just be because this is the first time we've really heard Janice sing in 20 years.
