    Muppet Babies DVD Box Sets

    That's what gets me. Muppet Babies definitely has a rights issue with all those clips, and if we were going to get an official release, we'd have three problems... to secure those rights, the sets may be expensive, the episodes may be edited in obvious and unwatchable ways, or we only get a...

    Something that's really kinda bugged me about the Muppet/Fraggle comics

    I'd tend to think seasoned Muppet fans with their own comics may be able to get into the negotiations process. Though, I still wish Dave would come back and tell us exactly the details of how he got into doing covers and King Arthur. Again, I've heard tales, and they all point to not being...

    A Lidsville movie

    Fart's apparently okay now. And I've heard "sucks" or "sucked" on a few occasions (in the new Ninja Turtles series, Mikey said "It sucks being cold blooded"). Anyway, back to the subject at hand... I dunno if this was true or not, but I once read that they made an Electro Woman and DynaGirl...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    Aw, heck, you know what I mean. The whole thing where we get mixed messages about how something deeply sentimental and hand made and coming from the heart is SUPPOSED to be the thing that's most important, and everyone tells us that. Then they tell us the opposite. it's confusing and annoying.

    A Lidsville movie

    You can show naked butts on cable TV, even kid's cartoons. Saw Timmy Turner's dad's butt in one episode. And a fairly recent one too. And crap was uttered in at least ONE Hey Arnold. A couple Ren and Stimpy's... I HATE how that's a swear in its own right, since it's a substitute.

    Your dream 2011 Muppet Promotions

    There's such an annoying intricacy about this. It's not so much just a movement of hypocritical poser environmentalists and their holier than thou-ness, but mostly from parental groups who feel the need to ban everything so they don't have to say "no" to their precious spoiled brats. Sure...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    The thing that bugs me is the fact that our culture SAYS that's more important, but it's like saying "It's better to give than receive." Culturally, we WANT to think we're above materialism, but we are NOT. It's in animal nature to be possessive and to want. What really gets me is the...

    A Lidsville movie

    I would definitely have gone over BS&P's heads and request them to be investigated. That instance sounded like hard core depravity that only the sickest people known to man kind know about. Love those family values types. Minds sicker than porno producers. I can almost top that, though...

    A Lidsville movie

    And a job is a job. Though, Ruth's career REALLY opened up when she did voice acting. The stories I could tell you. The stories. The censors always manage to catch sound-a-likes and innocent jokes like that (and scenes of violence... that no one has to have a 3 I.Q. to do). Let's...

    The Darkwing Duck Thread

    By "origin" I mean origin of Darkwing the series, not Darkwing the character...So yeah, Darkly Dawns the Duck. I want to call it the pilot... but considering the origin "movies" for Ducktales and Rescue Rangers were made well into the series. So, I'm confused if Darkly WAS the true pilot...

    Super Bowl XLV: The Commercials

    Apparently a while back someone shared a contest entry of theirs, in which a Cookie Monster parody puppet was eating Doritos, and the puppeteer stops feeding the puppet and feeds himself... it pulls out and there's a guy dressed like Frank Oz and a guy like Jim Henson, and the Jim Henson guy...

    What if the New Muppet Movie's Villain had a Muppet Sidekick?

    Personally, I throw the concept of him being an alien in the trash anyway, since... well, we know what REALLY happened in the script. Thank you, guy who made a Garfield movie with a wrong Jon Arbuckle. However, I'm wondering if Roger were later to see the movie and to dismiss that like the...

    Questions About The Toy Industry

    The Archie comic got VERY deep the further along the series went on. The sad thing is, it was supposed to culminate with this big long, super epic that was never finished... and that was one of the many things we were promised, but NEVER GOT from the 25th anniversary. Seriously, I wanna track...

    Something that's really kinda bugged me about the Muppet/Fraggle comics

    You summed up exactly what I could have said. Even with smaller, slightly more independent companies like Boom, there's always the "Hey, would you like to work on this?" factor. Though, didn't Boom discover Dave Alverez, that guy who did Muppet fan comics on deviant art, later to go onto...

    A Lidsville movie

    I tend to like BOTH, but I think the second was far stronger for dumping the Brady Bunch-style self parody stuff. It's stuff that's funny at first, but becomes tedious. Only thing I really disliked about the second was that random pointless bit with that fat guy who just won American Idol...

    Least likeable Sesame character?

    Actually, I'm starting to wonder if that wasn't the intention after all. It also seemed to me Mrs. Finch wanted him to go to a traditional family as well... the mother/father2.5 children bit. They never fully explain or even acknowledge if Big Bird even had parents... YET he has a grandparent...

    Why people dislike modern Sesame Street

    The block format wouldn't even bug me if they at least filmed NEW Murray intros every year. I'm shocked viewership was up with all that reused footage.

    Muppet Show Season 4 coming in 2013

    Let's say what I forget who, but someone said earlier in this thread said there might be a rights issue they have to renegotiate. Now, we can't be sure this is true, but it seems like a possibility. Seeing as how season 4 was announced 2 years ago to come the following year, movie or no...

    A Lidsville movie

    The episodes where Shaggy and Scooby had to babysit the little tyke, and they spent 6 minutes running from some muscle bound guy that Scrappy ticked off were GARBAGE, so I can agree to that much. I just picked up 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo last week and so far Scrappy hasn't been even slightly...

    The dark day of Valentines Day is upon us...

    Yeah... stupid day doesn't mean anything. Can't even say it was corrupted, it was always commercial. It's basically an excuse to sell stuff. It's just THAT excuse to do THAT... and the holiday loses it's charm when you're WAAAY too old to buy those little cardboard cards and give them to your...
