    Remembering Richard

    It's been eleven years since Richard left us. I still find it hard to believe. I remember the shock I felt when I saw the Sesame Street CD "We Are All Earthlings" at Best Buy and saw "In Memory of Richard Hunt" on the back. I couldn't believe it...this was the guy who performed Statler...

    Why Floyd Is The Hippest Of The Hip

    (I don't know how keen the bassman would be on a thread called "Why We Love Floyd".) But why is Floyd just so awesome? To say that Floyd (and the rest of the band) are somewhat otherworldly is an understatement. The Electric Mayhem are often in two places at one time: the here and now...

    Most Underused Muppets?

    Ever like one of those characters who had so much potential, yet was sorely underused (except for ensemble numbers)? I have one, and I wish they had used him a lot more. Uncle Deadly was rarely used after the third season of The Muppet Show, and I wish they had kept him on. I can think of...

    Why We Love Scooter

    It's about time the go-fer got his due. We've made these threads for Kermit, Fozzie, Gonzo and Rowlf. I think Scooter has a bit of a universality to him because in a way, we all know a Scooter or have met one in our lives. The new kid at your job who tries really hard to please everybody just...

    Why We Love Rowlf

    Come on, what's there to hate about Ol' Brown Ears himself? Besides Kermit, Rowlf is probably the most sane of the Muppet family. He's been around as long as Kermit has and he's probably seen everything, so he knows what to expect out of the rest of his friends, and like Kermit, he accepts...

    Least Favorite Muppets?

    We all know why we love Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, Gonzo, and Scooter. Believe it or not, though, there are some Muppets that I'm not too crazy about. Of all the Muppets ever made, I think I like Marvin Suggs the least. You may have noticed that he's not in too many outlines I've written, and the...
