    Cookie Monster Precursor

    Cm Green huh? I guess because the photo was black and white it was hard to tell. Earlier versions of Grover were a dark like green color from what I recall. "Muppets Magic"looks like a neat video! Thanks for the information.

    Cookie Monster Precursor

    I was browsing throught the Jim Henson Book at Borders a few years back and came across a picture that had an early version of CM before he was a regular on SS. He was in an old IBM commercial eating a machine of some sorts. He was pretty scary looking, as he had sharpteeth and looked to be a...

    Muppet Caper Movie

    Muppet Caper The Muppet Movie was enjoyable, and Muppets Take Manhattan was okay, but this movie is by far MY favorite, hands down. Not just the Muppets make it enjoyable, but we see a lot of famous actors doing cameos and one of my favorites, Charles Grodin is great inthis film.

    Classic Cast Hey Muppetdude! What other Classic cast members have returned, just out of curiosity? Good to hear they're bringing a few back. I'm glad Frank Oz still has ties to the show. He IS Bert! :(

    Bert & Ernie, Legends

    Bert & Ernie Kermit at one time was a main character too, but he's hardly on anymore. It is good that they DO still keep a lot of the older bunch around, including Bert & Ernie. In fact, they're on that TV commercial for the SS DVD on best music skits. Well, at least Bert is :( , he sticks...

    Is Kermit still on SS?

    It seems like only yesterday when he was the main character of the Street', now Elmo is the newest craze!! UGH! :grouchy: I guess when Jim Henson passed away, the character really lost it's lustre. Sure the new person (whatever his name is) does an okay job at his voice, but still it's...

    Do you know the name of these muppets?

    Lol! Okay! Thanks for that info. Pretty interesting (and too original) to name the green guy just 'Fred' though. LOL! I do remember that skit now that you brought it up. I had forgotten about it it's been so long!

    Do you know the name of these muppets?

    I always referred to them as the 'no-names' because They were never mentioned. I'll describe a few, and you can tell me if you recall which one rings a bell: The first one was a huge blue hairy guy, squarish head witha beek like mouth. He was sort of before cookie monster (starred in Kermit's...

    The most tear-jerking Muppet moment...

    Most tear-jerking moments For me? Well, I would have to say the vintage sesame street clip of Kermit in the forest singing 'It's not easy being green'. And yes, 'Saying Goodbye' MTM was pretty sad also.
