To be honest. I haven't seen Baskerville much, except for as the patient in Vetranarian's Hospital in the Elton John episode, and he didn't say anything. Actually, I read the transcripts for those dog food commercials and I thought his obsession with asparagus was sort of annoying. No...

Wow! I'm surprised Barkley's so popular here. I know I voted for him, but still I didn't think he'd be one of the more popular dogs, since he can't talk and doesn't do much. I guess it's his appearance during the closing credits of "Sesame Street" in the 80s that everybody likes. Lol.

Yeah, I was just watching "The Muppet Takes Manhattan" on video today. And I was sort of trying to think where the pupateers could be during each scene.

I have to agree with what Lord Mogoth said. I don't have Noggin either. I'd like to see what the show was like before I was born or something like that. By the way, Cantus Rock, if you're still here, you said you were going to send me a copy of the first episode, did you get my PM...

Yeah. A little bit. Another thing I've been kind of curious about was that I've seen pictures of the pupateers with their hands up the back of a Muppet, other times the same characters are seen full figure when their dancing or something like that. So I guess they do the same thing...

Sure, you still never answered my last question.
Anyway, still Frank's characters still had some memorable moments in the post-Henson period. Ex: Miss Piggy's battle with Michelle Pfifer; Fozzie and Mr. Bimbow; Grover's "Monster in the Mirror" song, etc.

About the Peter Sellers/Like episode I've kind of wondered what happens after the Muppets get rolled up or something like that. Do they have to be rebuilt or something. Also, on the same video when John Cleese stretches out Gonzo's arms and legs, how was that undone after the show was...

Well, actually I'm a Spanish major myself so I don't really have an interest in learning actual Swedish, just mock Swedish maybe. Lol.
Thanks for clearing that up too. I was wondering how Kermit and Rowlf's duet of "I Hope Something Better Comes Along" was done.
Anyway, you're...

The only one I can tell you about is that Gloat once appeared during the opening credits of the first season. I think he bashed Gonzo with a stick. I haven't seen that episode but I read it in the episode guide.

A little. I did see Frank's name credited in "Treasure Island," so would that mean he received credit if he didn't voice the character, because they knew his voice would be dubbed in later.
I'm also still not quite sure about the Chef. You say Bill Barretta performs him now. So does...

O.K., I'm getting a little confused again. I thought that Frank didn't stop performing until just recently. I also want to make a comment on the Swedish Chef, I know that David Rudman performed him at some point I think it was in "Christmas Carol." One thing I'm curious about is that...

Yep. That was definately Frank in "Treasure Island." His name's in the credits and everything. After all Sam the Eagle aka Mr. Erroll had a pretty big role in that. I also liked him as Miss Piggy singing "Love Led Us Here."

Thanks, Chilly. I appreciate that. Thanks, Chilly. I appreciate that. Just a little comment on Eric's characters. I think he's gotten pretty good. After seeing the "Mastercard" commercial I can say this. His Piggy is dead on. I have trouble believing that it isn't Frank. His...
