    If Jim hadn't died in 1990

    I overheard some people discussing Will Ferrell recently, though they said that it's hard for him to always be funny because he does so many movies a year.

    Minor Muppetz' TMS Outline: Gary Puckett

    It's been awhile, but here is an all-new Muppet Show outline from me, taking place in season 5. Cold Opening Gary Pucket tells Pops that he just had a big dinner before the show, and then he sees Animal give Crazy Harry a headlock before Crazy Harry blows them both up, the green frackle...

    Potential Idea for a 40th Anniversary Special DVD Release

    Here is something that I thought would have been good to say, if this was an april fools day prank. I thought about making an announcement for a big set like this, and that Sesame Workshop wanted to interview real-life fans in addition to people who have worked on the show. I would have said...

    Bunsen and Beaker at the Science Fair

    chapter 3 Beaker was chasing after the wheel. Beaker got his leg stuck in the wheel, and was tumbling down. "Maaaaahhhhhhhhh", screamed Beaker. "I'll come, Beaker!", said Bunsen. The wheel made it down a hill, and when it got down, the wheel had suddenly turned sideways, and Bunsen...

    SST Outline : Baby Bear finds a cat

    Wait, are all recent cartoons made with flash? Well, maybe you're right, and maybe not. Whenever I make these Sesame Street outlines, I try to be sure that certain sketches came before the seasons. I would sugest looking at various sketch pages at Muppet Wiki and see what the earleist known...

    The MuppetCast - Show #56 - Digits, Giants, and Slippers

    I assume that all Jim Henson Hour audio clips in this episode are from the first two episodes. If that's true, then I guess you could say that the first two shows only have four classic Muppets, as opposed to three: Kermit, Gonzo, Link, and... Rowlf. In that pirate sketch, was that Gonzo...

    chapter 2 Finally, the judges went to Bunsen and Beaker's table. "What is your invention?", asked the german lady. "Behold, a great invention",s aid Bunsen, "Beaker, take off the sheet." "Mee mee", said Beaker, who pulled off the sheet to reveal a giant exercise wheel. "This...

    MuppeTelevision: less songs?

    Is it just me, or did all of the MuppeTelevision segments from The Jim Henson Hour have only two musical numbers? From what I know, Science Fiction has Neutron Dance and Chattanooga Choo-Choo, Aquatic Life has Splish Splash and Maneater, Monster Telethon has The Lion Sleeps Tonight and Sweet...

    Kermit's first Sam & Friends episode question

    Maybe he was in the first episode, maybe he wasn't.

    Bunsen and Beaker at the Science Fair

    Last week I wrote a fan fic called Happy Birthday Sweetums! which included a mention of Bunsen and Beaker being at a science fair. Well, that was menat as a brief "preview" of this fan fic. Enjoy! Chapter 1 Bunsen Honeydew and Beaker had made it to the science fair, and had set up their...

    SST Outline : Baby Bear finds a cat

    That was good, though I think Every Kitty Sleeps debuted in season 37.

    longer music numbers

    I wonder if Jim Henson would have wanted musical numbers to be logner if The Muppet Show was produced today. It seems like songs are getting longer these days. Back in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s it seems like the average song was around 2 or 3 minutes, but now it seems like the average song is...

    The Muppets Take Manhattan behind the scenes

    The Secrets of the Muppets doesn't have any behind-the-scenes footage from The Muppets Take Manhattan, though some clips from the movie are in the opening clip montage montage. The special has a section on the making of the bicycle scenes from the first two movies, but no behind-the-scenes...

    Little Muppet Monsters is on Youtube

    I recently posted a thread on whether Jim Henson and CBS might have given this show more ofa chance if either the show was completely live aciton or completely animated, and watching this, I think it could have succeeded if given a chance (though you could say that about almost any short-lived...

    John Landis in "The Muppets Take Manhattan"

    Jim Henson made a cameo in Into the Night as "Man on Phone" (this is the other movie to reference Frank Oz's real name), and Richard Hunt played Wilson in Trading Places (in which Frank Oz also made a cameo as "Corrupt Cop"). And An American Werewolf in London featured a clip from The Muppet...

    John Landis in "The Muppets Take Manhattan"

    And Muppet performer and MTM director Frank Oz made cameos in some of Landis' films. I tink I've read somewhere that Frank Oz wanted Landis to make a cameo in The Muppets Take Manhattan since he'd made cameos in John Landis' movies and wanted him to cameo in his solo directorial debut. Other...

    The Muppets Take Manhattan behind the scenes

    I wonder where the interview footage originated. It's not in Henson's Place, where I would have expected it to be. I also notieced that The Muppets Celebrate Jim Henson has quite a few behind-the-scenes clips included. One that I found odd was footage of the cast on stage singing Right Where I...

    A FASA Meeting

    I wonder if one of the problems is having it be a meeting, as opposed to maybe a FASA-sponsored event. I wonder if organizations like this would normaly have meetings for all of it's members. And I guess that an organization for fictional animal starts would have more members as well. In The...
