    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    The month's almost over, and still no sign of when the next issue will be released. They must be skipping this month (of course I think there was a month when two issues of The Muppet Show Comic Book came out).

    Any idea how Two-headed Monster scenes are scripted?

    One thing I've been wondering for years: If the Two-Headed Monster appears in a script, how does the script identify which head says what? Would a script refer to the heads by their names (whether it be "Horns and Harndart" or "Frank and Stein"), or would it refer to them as "Left Head" and...

    Is it ok for a character's style to evolve?

    The Electric Mayhem HAS changed it's regular wardrobe over the years, and with the exception of Janice all of them seem to have gone back to their original outfits at times during the past decade. During the 1980s Dr. Teeth switched from a furry colorful vest to a black leather vest...

    Sesamestreet.org relaunches for Season 39

    It's "Thankful Time" with Abby Cadabby. And if sesamestreet.org really wants me to be thankful they'd add a bunch of classic clips (it's been almost five months since any classic clips were added to the site at all).

    "Elmo's Best Moments" list on AOL

    Today AOL's main page has an article on Elmo, listing his best moments. http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/11/18/elmos-best-moments/?icid=main%7Cwelcome%7Cdl2%7Csec1_lnk3%7C185465 Noticed a big error in this article (aside from saying Elmo's been on the show for 25 years yet acknowledging his...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Considering the trouble it took to get Kermit on the Silly Storytime DVD (they wanted him on the cover because it has so many Newsflash segments, and they didn't have a good enough Kermit photo of the quality being used on current DVDs), I wonder what would happen if a simialr case came up for a...

    The Muppet Mindset

    Good article, but there seems to be some mistakes regarding dates. It lists 1984 as the year of "Out to Lunch". That special was actually broadcast in the early 1970s, I think 1972. It also lists the Bob Hope Christmas Special with Big Bird as being from 1970. I'll have to check Muppet Wiki, but...

    Jim Henson's Red Book

    The website had an interesting entry on The Witches: http://www.henson.com/jimsredbook/2010/11/19/11191988/ I never knew that Jim Henson himself had pitched the movie. I would have thoguth somebody else pitched the idea to adapt The Witches into a feature, and that Jim Henson's Creature Shop...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Assuming you didn't miswrite "should" as "would", are you basing this on the stories represented in the main program? I did think of that myself, before making that wishlist. And if it does have a "Sleeping Beauty" newsflash, I hope it's the one that hasn't been released on DVD yet. Man...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    I don't think that's new. I usually stay logged in, and sometimes when I go to YouTube I suddenly have to log in. It's happened to me before any recent changes. There are other websites I am a mmeber of, and in some cases I always stay logged in (though sometimes it automatically logs me off)...

    Thanksgiving at the Muppet Theater

    Thanks. I had been thinking this up for a few weeks. I had originally wanted to do something with the whole "How I Met Your Mother" cast, saying that they were going to tape a scene from an upcoming thanksgiving episode on the stage, with Miss Piggy portraying Ted's current girlfriend. But...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Listening to that podcast episode, it sounded like Louis Mitchell said he worked on the back of the DVD package in addition to the cover. But I thought all the images on the back covers were still images, unless he meant selecting stills to use. I wonder how complete the listing at Muppet...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    I hadn't listened to The MuppetCast much in a long time, and it seems there haven't been threads for new episodes in a long time... But I am surprised that this news hadn't been discussed by fans sooner. I mean, it was mentioned Kermit would be on the cover of a Sesame DVD, and it wasn't at...

    Thanksgiving at the Muppet Theater

    Chapter 8 On-stage… “And now, here is a tribute to the first thanksgiving”, said Kermit. The curtains raised. Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, as well as Clifford, Wayne, Wanda, Nigel, and Scooter, were portraying the pilgrims, navigating a ship. “Okay, gang”, said Dr. Teeth...

    Thanksgiving at the Muppet Theater

    Chapter 7 Backstage, Weird Al Yankovic encountered Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. “Hey, band”, said Weird Al. “Hey it’s Weird Al Yankovic!”, said Dr. Teeth. “Hey, I’m a big fan of you all”, said Al, “And I’d like to do a parody of one of your songs.” “Oh, hey, that’d be...

    Your Thoughts: The Muppet Show Comic Book

    I liked issue 4. The arc got better with each issue (and I wasn't expecting it to be that great, even with the unfulfilled hope that it would feature many Muppet monsters besides Sweetums... Really, next time Roger Langridge gets interviewed by Tough Pigs I hope he's asked about the lack of...

    Thanksgiving at the Muppet Theater

    Chapter 6 Outiside the theater… “I’d like to join you in your protest”, said Gonzo. “Really?”, said Sam, surprised, “I didn’t think we had anything in common. Why would you protest against the theater serving turkey on thanksgiving?” “Hey ya hear that?”, said a turkey passing by...

So we'll be getting two Sesame Street DVDs ina row featuring content with Kermit the Frog (okay, so we also did last...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    You know I wonder if the "Newsflash" segments will be released with the correct title cards or if all will be presented with the same title card.
