Were there ever any puppets you had to perform whose appearance grossed you out? There were a lot of bizarre, very different-looking creatures on FR compared to anything before or since for that matter. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

MORE SPOILERS "Beast of Bluerock" has a moment that never ceases to amaze me. When Wembley meets up with Gobo at Bluerock and Gobo finds that he lacks the nerve to break the rock and face the beast, he says "I'm a failure. I've let you down, I've let everybody down". Wembley pauses...

Did Wembley's eyes work in a similar fashion? We've been trying to figure his eyes out for ages, although I did see once that his eyes aren't perfect spheres but rather are missing at least a small part of the back, probably the point that the eyes rotated on. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Well, sometimes it takes more than 5 1/2 hours to get a response. Especially when there are only one or two registered members in the forum at a given time. Sometimes it takes more than a day. Sometimes it takes a few days. Point is, sit back and relax, and don't take it personally if it...

Ever heard of the word 'patience'? I don't find this scene in keeping with Kermit's character. Kermit never screamed at people for interrupting his introductions, nor did he ever boast about how exciting his introductions were, nor did he ever get that carried away about a guest star's...

Wilder was never on TMS. And it's guest star, by the by. Kermit was the host. Nowadays the terms guest star and guest host are used interchangeably, thanks to the ubiquity of SNL, but truthfully the guests on TMS were not hosts, just guest stars. Come to think of it, heck, they're called...

Funny, I just watched that episode and the Diana Ross one a couple of days ago and was thinking about pairing those two birds up in a fanfic. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I think that was when Pryor had his legendary accident, later revealed to be a suicide attempt, when he lit himself on fire while free-basing cocaine. In Jerry Nelson's interview on MC, he said that they tried to get Paul, who was interested but wouldn't do it without Wings, and they couldn't...

I THINK YOU'VE GOT THEM ALL!!!!!!! I CAN'T THINK OF ANY MORE OTHER THAN THE ONES YOU'VE MENTIONED! I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT DOUG HENNING WAS A NON-SINGER!!!!!! See how frustrating all caps is? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

He would count as a non-recording star, though I have a hard time imagining anyone falling for his vocals on TMS. Outside of TMS is, I assume, another story. Oh, and I want to add Raquel Welch to my mentions. Very skilled for not being a professional singer. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Don't think that's it at all. Look closer at that closing number next time you watch the episode- every time she looks at Fozzie, she starts to crack up. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

If you look at the original post date, you can see it's been over 3 years since he posted it. That was before we had a Fan Fiction forum. I made him a link list, like the one I've got linked in my signature, for him to post so that people could find all of his stuff. He never posted it...

Which version is on the DVD, the blue background or the yellow background? Hoping for yellow, I never liked the blue. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I refer to those guests who weren't singers by trade, the guests who never released a solo album, per se. That omits the following: Season One: Connie Stevens, Jim Nabors, Paul Williams, Charles Aznavour, Lena Horne, Ben Vereen Season Two: Teresa Brewer, Bernadette Peters, Elton John, Lou...

That was their closing number, but if you listen, only the Muppets are singing it. I revised the non-singing guest list: Season One: Juliet Prowse, Harvey Korman, Peter Ustinov, Phyllis Diller, Mummenschanz Season Two: Don Knotts, Edgar Bergen (the Muppets sang "Consider Yourself and...

In "Teenager in Love", the Mutations not only dance and sing backup, they also try to upstage Connie. But, they only do this a little bit and the song itself is only about a minute long. Basically they each shove Connie while crossing the stage, and at the end, when she twirls in front of them...

Man, I can't help but disagree with most of this list. Then again, I can find something to like in practically every episode. -Teresa Brewer: her episode has become one of my favorites- it's colorful and energetic and zany; IMO it gives creedence to Kermit's opening line "Welcome to The...

To answer minor muppetz's query, yes, this thread is about worst guest stars, not necessarily worst episodes. Guests themselves, please. Worst episodes we can start a new thread for. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

How do you mean scary exactly? And which minute details? I don't pay as much attention to some, although I do get questions about minute details, largely from Philip Kippel. Often times I have the idea and then say for the cast of a number or who performs a certain character, I often don't...

See, I got the impression that Bruce thought he was better than the Muppets, and like I said before, disingenuous, grating, and a show-off. I think personally that comic actors often made ideal guests- in the context of sketches, they really got to interact with the Muppets, moreso than, say...
