Hmmm. I'd say they're about the same. Of course Brian's Scooter had a bigger part in the Christmas Movie. However, since Adam is Richard's brother his Scooter worked out. I like them both.

Nope. It was Nelson who voiced Statler in the Christmas movie. The only one of his characters that he didn't perform was Lew Zealand. (He was played by Bill Barretta in that)
I know I'm not secret squirrel, but I thought I'd give some input on that.

Yeah. A good example of that was in the Racquel Welsh episode of TMS when Animal attacked him then said, "I think I'll sit quietly in my dressing room." Miss Piggy can also sound like Grover when she gets angry.

I've read it was Bill who performed Dr. Teeth in MFS at imdb.com, but most other sources say it was John. Yeah, Waldorf and Statler are still around but not as often as they used to be. To be honest I never cared much for Jerry's Statler. I thought the character sounded better when...

I know what you mean. I didn't watch the show much because
A. Most episodes were aired before I was born
B. When they did show reruns I was scared to watch it because I was afraid of Animal
Anyway, that's why I bought the Timelife videos. I have been cracking up at quite a few...

That is weird. I guess, after nearly 35 years Ernie is starting to wear Bert down.
Actually, I thought Bert sounded sort of different in "Elmo's World: Happy Holidays." Of course he had hayfever then, so he was supposed to sound stuffed up. I haven't seen Eric's Bert too much other...
Here's something I was wondering about. I was watching "Muppet Treasure Island" and I was wondering where the writers got the idea to have Fozzie think there was a guy living in his finger. Surely, there wasn't something like that in the original "Treasure Island" book. Does anyone happen to...

O.K., I've glanced at the show for a little bit today and I caught Matt's Big Bird. At least I think it was Matt's. He did sound a little different, but I can't complain too much. It's like, you know it's a different performer but I thought he was doing okay in trying to imitate...

Well, if you send a payment for $19.99 in you'll receive a new volume every month. Volume 1 has quite a bit of Janice in Vetranarian's Hospital, not much Floyd though. He is seen more in Volume 2 singing "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" in the Paul Simon ep and he's involved backstage...

In answer to your question, Movies205, the original Muppet Show was syndicated so it was on a different station in each area. I think they could bring back "Muppets Tonight!" maybe on a different network, or maybe something where Kermit's the host again and possibly they use more of...

Timelife might be a better recommendation. I'm up to volume 9, (yet missing Volume 6). I think you might receive the collection sooner if you went with Timelife. Theirs come out monthly. It's up to you though. If you prefer Amazon, that's fine. I just thought I'd make that suggestion.

You could order the Timelife video collection. There are quite a few moments with Floyd and Janice in that one. There's their duet of "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover," Floyd's song "Lady Be Good." Also there's a lot of Janice in Vetranarian's Hospital. You should give them a try.

Sorry, Punk, but I think everyone used the ones I remember the most. Didn't he interact with Ernie too? I know Lefty the Salesman did.
Oh, by the way, according to the "Muppets Real Names" thread Fat Blue's real name is Fred Johnson.

Actually, there hasn't been a Muppet on the show all season. According to the producers, Kermit should be on the show the week of the 20th. I guess I'm getting a bit off topic though.
Bear on Patrol
Back to the subject of "Bear on Patrol," I've finally seen an episode with that sketch. It was a little funny, but I think that might be hard to have going on an on. The writers might run out of ideas. But you never know. Again, finding new performers wouldn't be a problem...
