There was, and this is another one. It took less time for me to punch in the answer again than look up the last thread that asked this question. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

Why does it seem I'm the only one who ever remembers the answer to this question? The answer to this question, which is also the answer to the question of why did Statler pass to Richard Hunt after the "Sex & Violence" pilot, is because Jerry specifically didn't want to play any characters...

I wonder what made them eat certain characters and not others. In "Pigs in Space" on the Carol Burnett episode, watch Big Mama's eyes at the beginning of the sketch. The character looks pleased at the sight of Piggy and displeased at the sight of Link and Strangepork. In the Sherlock Holmes...

I had seen one of the Michael Jeter segments. That's about how I figured Kristin's segments worked. Thanks. Btw, anyone else think Kristin should work with the Muppets outside of SS? I saw her live on stage in "Wicked" and she is a phenomenal talent. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

I'd say from the back. Piggy was always eaten while facing her eater whereas the guys could be either, so let's mix it up. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

He looks great! The eyes and the horns and the mouth are especially good. I did figure him taller, at least taller than the other puppet Muppets but shorter than the full-body monsters, but that's me. Too bad the mouth has to be stationary and he can't eat the other figures. And I love your...

I love Kristin Chenoweth and was blown away when I discovered she's on "Sesame Street". Could someone tell me a bit about her character Ms. Noodle? Pleeeeease? David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

If memory serves, it's from the Broadway musical "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying", written by Abe Burrows (who wrote "A Gypsy's Violin", "When", and "Down Memory Lane" as featured in the Peter Sellers episode, and the "Sea Chanty" that opens the Petula Clark episode). David...

Forgot about Behemoth. Ok, substitute him in the cold opening. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

TMS Season One had THREE Fozzie puppets: Fozzie 1.1: the rarely remembered original version with tiny pupils, a rather extreme bell-shaped head, and a frowning/smiling cheek mechanism. Used in the opening credits and a few sketches in the final versions of the first two episodes ("Cowboy Time"...

That would be "The Fraggles Look for Jobs", correct? Thanks for getting back to us. My that was a long post:eek: David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

A hard-nosed opinion, and a very opinionated article, but it's point is no less true. The Muppets aren't doing very well, and in a sense are has-beens. Look at how many celebs clamor to be on "Sesame Street"- despite the changes (I haven't watched the show for years so I only know of them...

Two quick yes or no qs: bp Nichol wrote most of your Storyteller episodes; I take it this is not a coincidence? Whenever I notice Morris in a crowd scene, he's nearly always on the left side of the screen and next to Red Fraggle; I take it this is also not a coincidence? David "Gorgon...

Heck, I'm stuck in the 70s, 80s, and previous, and I was born in '82. But I was always a little adult, so it's a moot point. Nice to have you back, Twiddlebug. How's everything? Some on my wishlist: -"I Want a Monster to be my Friend" (I have never seen this) -"Front and Back Blue...

Matt hasn't posted in over a year, so as I made this list for him, I don't think he'll mind my posting it. 1) Harry Connick Jr., 7/31/02 2) Elvis Costello, 7/31/02 3) They Might Be Giants, 8/1/02 4) Alan Jackson, 8/1/02 5) Rockapella, 8/7/02 6) Sheryl Crow, 8/7/02 7) Aaron...

I used to be scared of the Trash Heap and Junior Gorg. The first four episodes I ever had on tape were "The Battle of Leaking Roof", "Wembley and the Mean Genie", "The Beanbarrow, the Burden, and the Bright Bouquet", and "The Great Radish Caper". Junior's eyes were scary to me, and the Trash...

Matt has nearly 50 outlines up. I sent him a formatted list of links (like the one I've got) but he has yet to post it (hint, nudge). David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

These are suggestions for polishing. Something I always take great pains to work out is wording. Typically, less is more. Could re-word the Fozzie bit as: "I asked out a lollipop lady, but had to call it off on account of her boyfriend. He had me well and truly licked." Or something like...

And they re-used that same bit in the Petula Clark opening titles. Glad to have finally found out what the heck that was supposed to be in the Alan Arkin opening titles, I couldn't really tell. I still can't tell about the Cheryl Ladd opening titles Gonzo horn bit either. Anyone else have...

Who has kids? Btw, Bill Baretta IS married. He said at MuppetFest that he based Pepe off of his wife's aunt Maria Teresa (apparently every Spanish family has at least one Maria Teresa, so says Bill). David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
