With The Muppet Show, I think musical numbers would be more expected, given the variety format (though I'm surprised that The Electric Mayhem and Rowlf didn't get more numbers). It wasn't really neccessary for Fraggle Rock, since they don't put on a show often. For the potential Sesame Street...

It's "A Little Help From Your Friends Day" with Cookie Monster.

If the rumors are true, I hope they have us fans in mind, like how Boom did for The Muppet Show Comic Book and Achira (I probably spelled that one wrong) did for Fraggle Rock and other Henson properties (though I don't own any of those comics). I can do without musical numbers (which the Muppet...

Hopefully Sesame Workshop will start a new YouTube channel. There have been many YouTubers whose accounts were suspended but were apparently able to start new channels regardless (and even if a person couldn't start another channel after getting suspended, I'm sure they could just get another...

This was a funny commercial. I wonder if Dave Goelz actually operated Bunsen here. Something about his movements seem different. I also wonder if Kermit was only here to include one of the main Muppets. I think it could have worked with just Bunsen and Beaker (and they're certainly not obscure...

I agree that Regular Show, Gumball, The Looney Tunes Show, and Mad are all good shows, though I don't watch them all the time. I'm a bit surprised that Mad is included in the regualr Cartoon Network line-up as opposed to Adult Swim (If I had to give the magazine a rating I'd give it an R or at...

Here's a video of rehearsal footage which appears to be most of the closing reprise of the song (I think the beginning might be missing, but we'll have to wait until the soundtrack comes out if not the movie, or unless a sneak peek of that goes online). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyJuK_DINvg

One thing that I've noticed is that of all characters Beaker frequently seems to be a victim of full-frame cropping. Did Muppet Labs do the fullframe work? For example, in The Great Muppet Caper, at the end of the Happiness Hotel song, he's cut from a few shots in full frame. During the...

I heard the song, and I can't wait to see the visuals. I wonder if all of them are human or if it's a mix of humans and puppets. Many of the voices sound a bit muppet-y, and I thought I heard a voice that sounded like Miss Piggy. Or I wonder if the regular performers provided voices and live...

Watching this, it looks like the Moopets end up replacing Fozzie with a Fozzie look-alike. We never see them at the same time, but it's clear they're both there in the same room in the same scene. I was confused by the ear's deep-voiced "wocka wocka" line. Though I forgot about seeing a...

By the titles of some of the movie dialogue tracks, I have to wonder why some have to be seperate tracks, since some of them seem like they'd come right before (or after) the next (or last) music number. The Muppet Movie soundtrack had some dialogue from the film between some of the songs, and...

They showed a scene with The Swedish Chef trying to cook him in the kitchen set. I assume that clip would be in the movie.

Weird Al is the only one of those you mentioned that I do like, and I pretty much hate the rest, though I'm not sure if I should hate Glee. I've only watched a little of it, but then again, I chose to blindly hate the others (when I first heard of Justin Bieber, I decided to listen to one of his...

Without naming any names, does the book mention any obscure characters by name who don't have any big parts in the movie? It'd be interesting if it did name anyone we wouldn't expect to be mention (and clue in to if they have some role other than being there). By "obscure", I mean none of the...

When I heard Wayne and Wanda get dialogue, I figured maybe they'd sing a song that'd end early. But the track listing for the soudntrack has been announced and there's no Wayne and Wanda track, so I guess their dialogue comes in some other way (unless they do get a song and it just doesn't...

I've heard about Frank putting his hand on the right-hand performers hands so they wouldn't gesture too much. Though I don't know of many segments where it's obvious his character's holding onto the left hand (I think I've noticed it in a few Harvey Kneeslapper segments). I wonder if that...

Somehow I think she didn't perform as much as the other main performers during the early years. In Street Gang I think it's said that Fran worked on the show two weeks a season in the early years and continued focusing on her acting career. I noticed that while she was credited her first season...

I have recently been wondering if this album was still in print. I guess the original version would be out-of-print now and replaced with this one. I feel the Anthony Bocelli track would be out-of-place since it's the only track with a celebrity guest (though it originated in an album where...

In the interview with Caroll Spinney on the Follow That Bird anniversary DVD, he mentioned a time in the first season when he performed an Anything Muppet in a song, and kept having trouble with the lip-synch. He said that during a break Jim Henson watched the performance, referred to it as...

I rememer a long time ago Earl Kress made a post somewhere on this forum saying that voice performers got paid the same for up to two roles. Though at the same time it does seem odd considering that in the first season Caroll Spinney supposedly got paid 200 dollars a week instead of by show...
