    Another from Jim Hill Media...

    You know, I have read some sources that mentioned that Muppet Babies was inspired by the popularity of the scene from The Muppets Take Manhattan, but I'd also noticed that it premiered a few months after the movies release. There wouldn't have been time to develop a new animated series based on...

    what if there were more Gorgs?

    On Fraggle Rock, there were only three Gorgs seen. Wouldn't it have been cool if more were seen, at least occassionally? It would have probably been expensive to build full-body Gorgs who only appeared once, but I wonder, if more Gorgs appeared, if there would have been Gorgs who were...

    Doc's name

    Was Doc ever mentioned by name on Fraggle Rock, outside of being listed in the closing credits? It's been a long time since I've seen Change of Address, where he revealed his real name, and I can't remember if he also mentioned his nickname (could he have said somethign like "My name is Jerome...

    How about a 1980's Old School set?

    I have been wondering, if volume one is successful enough to warrent more sets, if future volumes will continue to focus exclusively on the 1969-1974 years, or if they will expand but still include the first five years (maybe 1969-1976, or 1969-1979, or somethign like that), or if they will be...

    What happened to Shurlock Hemlock?

    Were there any Sherlock Hemlock sketches produced in the 1980s? All Sherlock Hemlock sketches I can think of were either made in the 1970s or the early 1990s. He did appear in the background of such 1980s productions as The Muppets Take Manhattan, Follow That Bird, The Muppets: A Celebration of...

    How about a 1980's Old School set?

    With all of the excitemtn about the upcomming Old School set, I was wondering how you all would feel about having a set of Sesame Street episodes from the 1980s? After all, I feel just as nostalgic whenever I see Sesame Street productions from the 1980s as I do when I see stuff from 1969 and the...

    Old School Sesame coming to DVD October 2006

    Wouldn't it be cool if this set came with a bonus CD, either a reissue of the first SS album or a CD of songs from the first five years? The tracks could be like this: 1. Sesame Street Theme 2. Everybody Wash 3. The Ballad of Casey McPhee 4. Mad 5. I Love Trash 6. The Alligator...

    Did Weird Al ever appear on a Muppet thing?

    Wouldn't it be cool if, for a music video, Weird Al Yankovic had The Jim Henson Company make a Muppet, errr, puppet version of Weird Al Yankovic, lipsyncing to one of Weird Al's songs? His next album, Straight Outta Lynwood, will have six animated music videos, but why not have a puppet Weird Al...

    Sesame Street Bathtime Fun

    Enjoy this script, which I think would make a good Sesame Street video. (the title sequence shows an animated bathtub, with a bubble that has the title inside the bubble. Big Bird's voice can be heard, saying "Sesame Street Bathtime Fun") (the scene begins with Abby Cadabby on the...

    Did Weird Al ever appear on a Muppet thing?

    I wonder why Weird Al Yankovic hasn't appeared with the Muppets outside of Muppet Magazine. Do the people in charge of celebrities who appear with the Muppets dislike Al? Do they not know about Al? Does Al dislike the Muppets (though he has mentioned the Muppets a few times in his songs, though...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 37

    It would be cool if an entire street story involved Trash Gordon. An episode could focus on Oscar reading as much longer Trash Gordon chapter, and the scene could be intercut with scenes of Slimey asking Oscar questions about some of the stuff that happens in the story. Or maybe another...

    Your Thoughts: Sesame Street Season 37

    I think I have read that the Everybody Eats and Everybody Sleeps sketches later had some scenes replaced. So in other words, the new versions are basically the same sketches, but with a few different scenes.

    Muppet Appearances in Music Videos

    What do you mean by this? Do you mean only Muppets who were created for The Muppet Show? Do you mean no puppets that weren't from The Jim Henson Company (because The Jim Henson Company was the only company to call its puppets Muppets, and now Disney calls them Muppets)? Do you mean no parody...

    Muppet Appearances in Music Videos

    There was also Wipe Out, with Animal, and She Drives Me Crazy, with Kermit and Miss Piggy, plus many celebrity cameos (similar to the cameos from Put Down the Duckie). Nickelodeon used to show the music videos for Kokomo, Wipe Out, and She Drives Me Crazy.
