    Boardinghouse or apartment building?

    He's dead you know, that is if you count deleted scenes from AVMMC in muppet canon, what little of it there is.

    Boardinghouse or apartment building?

    Well it is unusual for everyone in an apartment building to be friends, let alone work together. However, you could say that Kermit owns the building and either rents out to all the muppets or offers them the apartments for free so he can make sure they actually get to work. As for why one...

    Your Thoughts: Howard Tubman

    Howard Tubman is the perfect addition to the cast of characters. He fits in perfectly with the muppet show format. If the muppets do another variety show type thing in the future he should absolutely be the dance choreographer. If they go in another direction, I'm not sure what part he should...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    I didn't hate him being British, I hated him period. To me the actor didn't pull it off. The lines were poorly delivered. That combined with the accent made me hate Santa.

    Are Kermit and Piggy married?

    You ave to look at who the muppets are aimed at. With Friends you could do story lines about how Monica and Chandler couldn't conceive. You can't do that with the muppets. With the muppets you lose Piggy being able to flirt with guest stars. I mean, when Kermit refuses to acknowledge their...

    Your Thoughts: Howard Tubman

    Why? Those sketches were great on TMS but why do we need to revisit them? Was there something left undone with them? jim Henson knew to move on from the old with the Jim Henson Hour. There was only one Muppets Labs sketch I know of and one Swedish Chef segment as well. It's time to move...

    Are Kermit and Piggy married?

    If you look at other "on and off again" relationships in tv you pretty much always see that once the characters finally get together the story fizzles and fades. Thats why they get together near the end of the series or they get together only to fall apart. You need that conflict to keep...

    Mayhem Mini Figures for sale on eBay

    Looking at the Corgi ones again I remember just how disappointed I am with them. They just don't look right. The proportions aren't anywhere near right. They look like humans with muppet masks on.

    Are Kermit and Piggy married?

    I believe that the plan was to have Kermit and Piggy finally be married, but I believe that after Jim Henson died that story line got rebooted and we went back to Kermit not even acknowledging a relationship and Kermit and Piggy at the moment seem to have been rebooted in age as well, making...

    Boardinghouse or apartment building?

    Actually I'm not sure i like the idea that they all live together. In TMM they all had separate lives. Everywhere you turned there was a muppet leading a regular (sort of) life. In GMC Piggy, Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo all lead separate lives. Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo only lived with the...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    I think the Rizzo/Gonzo friendship came about because Kermit Fozzie and Gonzo wasn't really happening since the Jim Henson Hour. Frank started leaving his muppet work as far back as the Jim Henson Hour. Then in MCC Kermit, Gonzo, and Fozzie never got a chance to interact. In MTI their...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    To me that just reeks of trying to be hip for the sake of being hip, the very thing people complain about in MWoO and AVMMC. I was watching AVMMC today and noticed how many parts of that special are already dated. While the main story holds, some of the jokes are just dated and over done...

    Why? I don't see how that serves the story in any way.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    One, is gay a proper noun? Two, Howard the pig's character is that of a stereotypical gay man.

    We see them leave. They went somewhere during that time.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    I think something that would have made Piggy's absence better would have been scenes of her in the Caribbean, alone and having a horrible time without Kermit. Also it would have been nice to see the band on their vacation having a horrible time. I think had the special been longer we would...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    It looks and sounds to me like Sam was performed live in that scene while Fozzie was dubbed. The dubbed voices always sound too clean these days and the voice doesn't quite sync up. I'm not sure what it is, but the sound work for the muppets hasn't been so great in recent years.

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    After watching this special (yes, special not movie) again I see a LOT of good. pros: -probably the best thing of all is that the muppets starred. Like AVMMC, this was the muppets show. -the songs. I liked them. What's in Your Heart with Fozzie and Kermit and Gonzo was a good song as...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    I think faith shouldn't even be brought into a Santa discussion. Someone believing something and making it real to them personally is religion if we are talking about God. If we are talking about Kermit you better make sure you realize he's still a puppet. Suspending disbelief is great, but...

    Your Thoughts: Muppets Letters to Santa

    When the muppets go on interviews do the performers go out and say "hey, this is my character now let me do some jokes" or do they go out as the characters. Did jim Henson guest host the tonight show or did Kermit and the muppets? Did Jim Henson throw the muppets a movie premier party for the...
