When I first saw the Muppet Babies episode Muppet Babies: The Next Generation, before we got to the scene with Animal as a Yoda parody named Yodie, I thought they had called him Odie. And was expecting the Garfield character to appear. At the time I was unfamiliar with Yoda.
When watching...
I reckon that if the series ever does get released, the hardest episode to release would be This Little Piggy Went to Hollywood. That used a lot of TV and film footage, and a lot of the footage seemed important to the plot. Editing all those scenes out would shorten it significantly.
Though...
Who do you think are the hardest Muppets to draw?
Now, I like to draw, but I'm not too good with proportions. I can usually get the basics of a character, but some are harder to draw than others. I feel it's hard to draw characters with beady eyes, or similar kinds of eyes (do Bean Bunny and...
There's a lot of fictional characters who glorif naughty behavior who aren't portrayed/viewed as bad guys, like Bart Simpson and maybe Stewie Griffin.
I hate it when people defend their brothers or sisters, especially if I'm making fun of them. I feel like those who insult their siblings...
I've been thinking that it might be a good idea to make a "Sesame People" folder, like the "Henson People" one, for threads about the human actors and anybody else on Sesame Street/Sesame Workshop staff who haven't done much additonal work for Henson.
I never saw Ferris as a villian type. He is the star of the movie, the one we're supposed to care about. Though I would have wanted his sister to get him in trouble (I don't, however, think I'd have wanted Mr. Rooney to win). Sure, he does a bad thing, skipping school and making others think...
I can't believe that Boom! keeps the rights to any unpublished comics, requiring Disney to buy the comic rights if they want them released. I don't think Boom! would be allowed to release it if the contract for Muppet comics has expired.
Regarding Farscape comics and the lack of coverage of...
It would probably be easier to just attach a lower half to a character who wears pants, though I wonder how noticable it would be to do so. I have a feeling that when Gonzo has legs legs are "permaneantly" attached to the puppet used.
And I imagine for a character like Fozzie it would be...
Here's the Busby twins in action. And judging by their few known appearances, it's no wonder they didn't do more. They were pretty much one-joke characters.

I'd have liked to have seen the characters from the "Long Time No See" number used again. The barber, the lead singer and his friends... Seems they might have made cool recurring characters.
Also Dr. Thad and the Medications (though it seems Dr. Thad and the barber are similar in desing and...
I've been wondering, whenever a full-body shot of a Muppet is shown, do they usually build a version of the chracter with a whole body (legs, waiste, etc.), or do they just put legs onto the puppet (maybe by pinning or velcrowing the legs).
Speaking of misquoted dialogue, I saw on a TV special counting down the best TV catch phrases that Rickey Ricardo never said "Lucy, you've got some 'splaining to do."
That was cool to see. I've noticed the green things behind Kermit's legs which look like back legs quite a few times before when Kermit's been sitting, but this is the first I can recall seeing the wires that moe the legs. Though it seems like after they changed the material used to build Kermit...
I noticed underneath the video screen it says that content from the site may not be used on news or information sites without written permission... What does this mean? Is the site telling people not to share the link or what...?
Anyway, that was great. While skipping to the Muppet parts I...
