What if the finale of The Muppets Celebrate Jim henson included characters from The Dark Crystal, Labrynth, and The StoryTeller?

If this show is true and the Muppets are seen in full-body shots for most of the show, I wonder if this effects the possibility of bringing back many of the olde,r more obscure characters, who might not exist in the form of a puppet with legs built. Would Disney have certain obscure characters...

I like how the last two shows have included audio samples of characters from the same performer. Though in the first one, when comparing Jim henson's voices, I think it would have been better to have chosen a song where Dr. Teeth pretty much sings by himself, such as Money, Poision Ivy, or You...

It seems like Kermit and Grover started to appear together less starting in the 1980s. Of course, it also seems like there was a brief "revivial" of Kermit and Grover as a team during the late 1990s, with two new Kermit and Grover sketches (Muppet Wiki mentions two very similar-sounding...

I haven't seen that sketch with the delivery man, but I've been wondering who performed him. Was it Jim Henson or Frank Oz?

The skit about Bert's bottle caps is transcribed at Tough Pigs, in the Ernie and Bert Anthology, so I guess that would means that Danny Horn has a copy. I don't know if Danny Horn has or would upload anything on You Tube, though. But maybe he's made trades regarding that clip with people who do...

I think so. The mouths were probably radio-controlled.

There are currently 26 episodes per season. Or did you mean "What if Sesame Street always had 26 epsidoes per season?" He did. Nelson performed Statler in his first appearance, The Muppet Show: Sex and Violence (which, in case you don't know, is included in The Muppet Show's first season...

There weren't any specials celebrating the fifth or fifteenth anniversaries (I have been thinking about writing a ficticious fifth anniversary special).

I think I've read a post by Mike Quinn somewhere that said that puppets were actually thrown out of an actual plane.

I actually like the first season better than the second season. And ironically, I also like the features on the first set better than the upcomming next book.

It would also be great if Land of Tinkerdee was included. The Frog Prince and Muppet Musicians of Bremen both featured quite a few characters whose voices were not performed by their performers. I wonder if the performers actually performed voices live, with voices looped later, or if the...

Since quite a few fans seem to think that this is inferior to the first two movies, it would be interesting if this was the first Muppet movie to have a two-disc set.

I've read that during the early years the writers would get a book on the shows curriculum goals, and after writing a sketch they would look through the book to make sure that the sketches had something relevant to the curriculum. Another sketch that doesn't seem to have any educational...

In the few Herbert Birdsfoot sketches that I've seen or heard, he doesn't seem to get upset at all. Seems like he is a bit friendlier than Bob.

At Muppet Wiki there is a scan of something from the CTW Archives, showing test results for a number of sketches in the second season. One sketch listed is "Ernie and the candy salesman". I haven't heard of any such sketch, but I assume Lefty is the candy salesman (right above the mention of...

I thought I'd start a thread on segments that hardly have any educational value. It seems like most segments about baths, especially songs, don't really teach much. They seem to just encourage taking a bath. I didn't notice any educational content in Ernie and Bert's first skit from the...

Oh yeah, though Kermit didn't actually talk to Big Bird there. Kermit has also appeared with Sully. And Kermit's not the only one to interract with the Miami Mice. Ernie and The Count have also appeared with them.

Did Herbert Birdsfoot appear in the finale scene from The Muppet Movie? I thought I've read that he is there, but I haven't been able to spot him. There are, however, two different Cookie Monster sketches with similar plots, but one has Kermit, and the other has Herbert Birdsfoot. I haven't...

I thought I read that Beautiful Day Monster was the monster in this story, though in the book version, Herry Monster was the monster.
