Bear arrives on Disney+ The beloved series has been off the air for the past 15 years. Now all four seasons are finally available for a whole new generation.
I agree. I miss the days of JTE when we were guaranteed a sketch with B&E or at least Ernie in every episode. They really should bring back something to that effect.
True. No one gets anxious like Telly. Though you have to wonder why Murray is starting preschool just now after going to so many other different schools. He should be about ready for college. Lol
I've noticed that as well. It's always nice to move away from the regular setting every once...
That probably wouldn't work. First of all, Steve stopped doing Ernie because of his unavailability, so do have him play Kermit on SS again would be unlikely. Plus, we may want Gonzo to save his old horn in case the Muppet show ever resurfaces. Lol. :)
Wow! They're making an episode out of...
Yeah. I can sort of see both sides. You have to admit Steve has been at the role for many years and we all know him as Ernie, but it seems that Billy is aiming more for a Henson type Ernie, while Steve has sort of made the character his own. But I see what you're saying, Billy's done a...
Nope. I watched the parade. No Muppets today. It would be nice though, maybe next year. Again, now that Steve has passed Ernie off to someone else, he now has more time to do :). Seeing Constantine in a live appearance might be interesting as well, though since he's a dangerous criminal...
And I think that's the purpose of recasting Ernie. I still don't know why that wasn't discussed in detail on Muppet Wiki. But anyway I see what you're saying. If Steve were to exclusively perform Ernie, that wouldn't be so good because Steve is busy with Kermit and Disney and whatever. So if...
I agree. I heard the voice in the preview and found that Billy's Ernie is pretty much spot on to Jim's. Like, people have mentioned Steve's Ernie seems to be weak at times as if he sort of has trouble getting Kermit or Guy Smiley out of his Ernie voice. Plus Steve's availability is a factor as...
Kermit maybe? After all, if Mr. Whitmire is not longer working on Sesame Street, he now doesn't have an excuse not to perform Kermit in other things. Lol.
Actually the whole thing reminded me of Piggy's appearnce with Rudolf. Nice that they gave Eric a chance to do that song. I wonder if...
Ahhh. It's so much easier to post here than it is on the Toonzone Forums for some reason. My computer has been given me a hassle ever since I had to install all these downloads for my new job. But for some reason it seems to be okay now. Anyway, what was I saying.... Oh, I remember...
That Brand X sketch was really neat. I knew guy was originally called "Sonny Friendly," (No connection with the other Sonny Friendly character.) but I never knew he had a different voice. I guess this was before the "Pick Your Pet" game. I don't think that's Carroll. My guess is Jim using a...
Yeah. I wonder about that too since Dave and Eric still work on both SS and for the Muppets, but they sort of have multiple characters on SS, so they're kind of needed. I'll miss Steve as Ernie, but I think they made the right decision if that's what they need to do to keep the character going.
I agree. I hated that they played that song with the word 'he**' in it. This parade is supposed to be family friendly. Hopefully, they'll go back to the standard, "New York, New York" song next year.
Yeah. I noticed that was Billy's Ernie too. But I think it's a little too soon to...
I always thought Eric was spot on with Piggy's voice, but I agree with you about her attitude especially on Good Luck Charlie. Hopefully, she'll be a bit more loosened up in future projects.
Okay. I saw it now. The sketch with Prairie and :insatiable: was good. You'd think after about 45 years of dealing with him, she'd know better than to talk to him about cookie problems. :)
Yeah. That's what they need, more interaction with Muppets in Murrary wraparounds. I could definitely see that happening in some areas. Even in this ep when Murray met the pigeon. I thought that would have been a good place for Bert to make an appearance. (Though I've noticed all Bert's...
I agree. Seeing Forgetful was the highlight of the ep. Again, it's a shame he didn't have any lines. Nice that Susan returned as well.
BTW, does anyone have the video clip of the Cookie and Prairie bit? I only saw the half hour version this week, so it would be nice to see that and anything...
