    A new "Muppet Show"

    I spent the other day at work thinking up ideas for a new TMS (and building on old ideas), specifically actors with musical ability. From "Chicago": Renee Zellweger (developing a fanfic) John C. Reilly Catherine Zeta-Jones (husband and wife show with Michael Douglas?) Richard Gere Queen...

    Fraggle Rock Inconsistences

    What about the entire song "Catch a Tail by the Tiger"? How do Fraggles know about tigers, bulls, and hounds, especially when they think Sprocket is a monster? Uncle Matt had yet to discover those things. How did they have those figures of speech on top of that? And how did they know about...

    A new "Muppet Show"

    I've always thought that if they're going to do a prime-time TV show, they should just revive "The Muppet Show" as the title and format. Yeah, I know, it seldom works, but then again no other format has worked either. Boy, it makes a person long for the good old days when the writing was...

    Boppity and Gloat appearances on "The Muppet Show"

    You think that's odd? I forgot to mention Boppity is in the opening theme of the Teresa Brewer episode, in Statler & Waldorf's box, right after he's seen in the arches! He's sitting in Statler's seat, and Statler stands behind him and says "Can I see your ticket stub?" David "Gorgon Heap"...

    We Must Believe in Magic

    Try typing in the title, followed by the word lyrics, on Yahoo. That usually works for me. The lyrics I can remember from off the top of my head: Mad as the captain of Alpha Centauri We must be out of our minds ... shipmates bound for tomorrow (can't remember entire line) Everyone...

    Catgut, Rover Joe and T.R. Rooster appearances on "The Muppet Show"

    Forgot, Catgut was also in "At the Dance" in the Roy Clark episode, dancing with the Afghan hound. I searched for this thread when I found I needed the info at the Palisades forum. Surprising that Catgut didn't appear in Season Two. That's all about to change with my Red Skelton outline...

    Who's your favorite Muppet monster?

    Question about your avatar: seeing it I can vaguely recall that sketch but only that I've seen it. How does that sketch go? Thanks. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    News Flash Question

    It was in The Muppet Revue, home video compilation from '84, and It's the Muppets: Meet the Muppets back in the 90's (exact year unknown). And to your other question, the other Merdlidop voice was Jerry Nelson. Toward the end, when they're laughing at Dom, you can hear Richard Hunt as one of...

    Statler & Waldorf "Old School" T-shirt

    Struck out on both of those. Still can only find it on Ebay. Is this shirt new, or soon-to-be-released? I can't think of why none of the online outlets would carry it. Also trying to find the black S & W T-shirt that has an old pic of them on the front and on the back has them saying...

    Statler & Waldorf "Old School" T-shirt

    I just found this shirt on Ebay, but I'd prefer to buy it new. Unfortunately I can't find any place that is carrying it. Anyone know where I can find it? Thanks. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Best on-line price for Muppet Monopoly

    Hey there. I was wondering if someone could help me. I don't get a chance to get out to toy stores much and was wondering if anybody knows where online I can get a good deal on Muppet Monopoly. Thanks. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Robin and Rowlf

    I think the only other times they were together were in group numbers, like Arlo Guthrie's "Sailing Down My Golden River" and Melissa Manchester's "Whenever I Call You Friend". David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    "In a Little Spanish Town" mp3?

    I'm looking for one of "In a Little Spanish Town" from The Muppet Show (Bruce Forsyth episode, the number with the Snerfs). Also if anyone has Bob's "I Get a Nice Feeling" I'd like to see about getting a copy of that. I have the tracks from "The Stars come out on Sesame Street" as well as...

    Happy Singles Thread!

    Where to begin? 21, never had a girlfriend, always wanted one. Always liked girls who were taken or didn't like me, or both. Had some near misses, where if I had acted sooner or been a little bolder, I might've wound up with a girlfriend. Seriously, my senior year of high school, twice in...

    Who will be on Sesame Street next season?

    Jennifer Connelly would be nice- especially since she just gave birth to a second child. Lately I've wondered why she hasn't worked with the Muppets again since "Labyrinth", or why they haven't tried to enlist her since her Oscar win. I like the Denzel, Poitier, and Reese ideas too. They...

    Another Muppet Show Outline--special guest Mel Welles!

    Another goodie, buddy ;) I especially liked the garment district joke (I've told it twice since). I can only vaguely remember "Me Going to Munch You, Munch You, Munch You"- how does it go, and how did it go on Sesame Street? As I recall no one was ever eaten on that show. David...

    Don't we need Robin action figure?

    Someone on the Palisades board made the suggestion of packing Robin with a brown upright piano, and Ken replied that he liked the idea. That may very well be what happens in the end. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole

    Muppet Show Song Ideas?

    They never did "YMCA" on "The Muppet Show", but one of the classic numbers from the show was "In the Navy" as sung by Viking pigs as they pillaged a coastal village (opening number, Roger Moore episode, 1980). If they had done "YMCA", I think they would've/should've set it in some sort of...

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    I see this thread didn't get closed. While we're waiting for the Palisades board to get back up, why don't we use this one? I myself have got a ton of questions and suggestions. David "Gorgon Heap" Ebersole
