    The Frog Prince nitpicks

    I thought I'd share some nitpicks about The Frog Prince. Who would like to join me? First nitpick involves Taminella being scarred of what would happen if the king found out that she was a witch and was the one who cast the evil spell on Melora. But if he did find out, what power would he...

    The Music Hath Charms Sketch

    I wonder if that's the most popular Muppet sketch from The Ed Sullivan Show to not be included on the Muppets Magic DVD.

    The ask Jim Lewis thread is now open

    Okay, heeeeeeeere goes my Muppet Classic Theater question..... Muppet Classic Theater only had six recognisable characters (Kermit, Piggy, Gonzo, Rizzo, Fozzie, and Robin), and everybody else was either newly-created, a previous puppet reused as a new character, or a generic animal character...

    The ask Jim Lewis thread is now open

    Yeah, there is one thing about Muppet Classic Theater that I think a lot of us fans have been wondering about. I already asked a question this round,t hough. Maybe next time, unless somebody beats me to it.

    A question about Forgetful Jones's orgin

    I wonder about Buster. Michael Earl himself has said that Kevin Clash originally performed Buster, and Clash's book doesn't say anything about originating Buster, but he did mention that he often visited the Sesame Street set, and I believe he said he would lend a hand if needed, despite not...

    Clifford Appreciation Thread

    I had been familiar with Clifford when Mupets Tonight started, but thought he was an odd choice for the host. If the producers didn't want Kermit to host it, they should have at least had a more familiar character (I guess it would have probably been Gonzo and Rizzo) host it instead. I expected...

    New Elmo's World Ideas

    One funy idea would be for a "mistakes" episode. For Mr. Noodles segment, Mr. Noodle can be instructed to do something and make a mistake while doing it, and he can keep doing things the proper way. That would be a proper twist, that his "mistake" is not making mistakes when he's supposed to...

    did Jim Henson ever perform a left hand?

    Speaking of that 30th anniversary crowd scene, I had wondered if the performers switched characters throughout the closing song, which had a lot of different close-ups, or if the same performers performed the same characters throughout the scene. If Jim Henson didn't have any of his characters...

    When Kermit Met Piggy...

    I honestly don't think that Jim Henson and Frank Oz accidently got married when the MTM wedding scene was shot, but I hope that they made sure that having a real minister get their fictional characters married didn't legally make them married (besides, Jim Henson was already married, though I...

    Stella

    The Muppet Wiki pages mentions that her vocubularly was limited to "yo!", so I guess she was similar to Sully, only she actually spoke. I wonder if her "yo"-ing ever interrupted Sully when he was about to talk. I wonder if Biff ever interrupted her. The only picture of her that I've seen was...

    did Jim Henson ever perform a left hand?

    Also, I wouldn't count that rabbit as a "left hand". I am asking about whether Henson performed the left hand of a character, not if he performed a background character that he didn't perform, though I do wonder if Henson ever had to perform any major characters that he didn't normally perform...

    did Jim Henson ever perform a left hand?

    No, Kevin Clash was talking about the 30th anniversary special. Clash never performed on The Muppet Show, and although he had met Jim Henson as early as 1979, and although he had occassionally hung out on the Sesame Street set before officially becomming a muppet performer, I doubt that Clash...

    did Jim Henson ever perform a left hand?

    Does anybody know if Jim Henson ever performed the left hand of any character? Considering that he started the Muppets and was the boss it would seem weird for him to perform somebody's left hand, but I don't think it is unlikely.

    Stella

    I recently read a bit of information about the Sesame Street episode where Hooper's Store had it's grand reopening, and read that a character named Stella appeared at the end, along with Biff and Sully. I also read that she appeared with Biff and Sully in the song This Song is For the Birds. But...

    He was in a coma in the fictional film clip, and he was seen in the studio later in that same episode. And he was in episodes after that.

    What DVDs would you want for 2008?

    One thing on my extreme wish lsit is the entire Little Muppet Monsters series, including all the unaired episodes. I wonder which would be more unlikely to have on DVD, that series (which the majority of the population ahsn't heard of) or the entire Jim Henson Hour, shown in hour-long forms like...
