Now I wonder if they should release a series 3 in time for the movie, and have the majority of figures be characters created for Muppet movies (Walter, Bill, Gil, Jill, Polly Lobster, Mad Monty, Clueless Morgan). Or maybe a "Muppet Christmas Carol" series, possibly with 9' figures based on the...

It looks like today's Muppet Mindset article was accidently announced in the YouTube thread. But here's what was posted there:

Do you realise this is the "Muppets and YouTube" thread and not the "Muppet Mindset" thread?

While watching some Geri and the Atrics clips recently, I've noticed that the guitar player played guitar with her left hand, yet she was performed by the left-handed Louise Gold. This gets me wondering if Louise Gold just did the voice while somebody else did the puppetry. Of course there are...

There's a number of behind-the-scenes info out there that explains how Frank Oz did Miss Piggy's underwater ballet in The Great Muppet Caper. Jim Henson's Red Book once did an article on it. The Muppet Wiki page for The Great Muppet Caper gives a bit of info as well. It seems the people at...

It's often been noted that when it comes to behind-the-scenes information, Jim Henson didn't keep many secrets, and was usually willing to explain how things were done. But on occasion there have been instances where he remarked that the viewers would have to figure them out for themselves...

Yesterday there was a post noting a taping date for "Mad Mad World" pilot. Anybody know what this is? There's no historical information provided, and Muppet Wiki doesn't have a page for it. I wonder if maybe it was a series based on It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World (though it was noted that The...

I don't know if they should be counted as mistakes as much as messed-up memories, but there's a few episodes of The Muppet Show that I only saw on Nickelodeon once, and not again until they were released on DVD, and had things that I remembered differently. For example, the John Denver...

Something just occurred to me recently: It seems like season four of The Muppet Show didn't really have very many changes. It's pretty much the only season with no new regular Muppet performers (depending on whether you'd count Karen Prell, Brian Meehl and Betsy Baytos as regular in season...

Pretty much all of The Muppet Revue has been put up on YouTube. Mostly one sketch each, but with the proper intros from the video, and with foreign subtitles. Unfortunately, most of what's been released on albums have been removed. Here is the first part that can be found on YouTube (since...

Ironically, the VHS cover included a review quote that said "The magic is back!"

I wonder if anybody will be cutting the clear plastic off the Waldo and have it fit in with the Palisades figures (though it's face is painted and would be flattened, but that wouldn't be too odd for Waldo).

Chapter 5 Chris and Paul were starting up their gadget to attack Rockin' Teeth. "Say your prayers!", said Chris, mananically. "Okay", said Rockin' Teeth, who got on his knees, put his hands together and started praying: "Good bless the Electric Mayhem band..." Animal interrupted by...

One exception would be the recent song "I Wonder", where we can see (through the magic of computer animation) a sillohutte of the buildings outside the window.

Well I checked out Counting with Elmo from the library, and although it's not mentioned on the packaging, it does contain a bonus clip: Herry and John-John counting to 20. That inclusion isn't too special, as it had also been released on the 40th anniversary DVD (and both releases cut Herry's...

I found this clip of Kermit being interviewed about the 20th anniversary, and talking about the Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting special. http://www.theinsider.com/news/39349_Pop_Culture_Rewind_Jim_Henson_and_Kermit_Talk_Sesame_Street_20th_Anniversary/

That "best friends" note got me thinking... Does Miss Piggy have a best friend? When it comes to female Muppets she's either jealous of them (Miss Mousey, Annie Sue) or she rarely interracts with them. She seems to be least jealous of Janice, but outside of Veterinarian's Hospital it seems the...

I thought Inspector Gadget did a lot better than Muppets From Space (though it didn't deserve the better box office profits).

I checked Muppet Wiki to see if there was a page for these, but found nothing. I searched "Disney Dreams" and "Disney Dreams Plush" on Google, and that wasn't much help either.

Could the promotions be starting now? I recently heard of some good quality Muppet plush called "Disney Dreams" (though I don't know when they started making those), and series 2 of the Muppets "Vinylmation" sold at Disney theme park gift shops has been announced (not sure when they'll be...
