    The corny joke thread

    Okay, how about this one? Why did the blonde wear dark glasses? With all the dumb-blonde jokes around, she didn’t want to be recognized.

    The corny joke thread

    Okay, for this joke, it helps to be familiar with this Sesame Street Sketch: [Harvey Kneeslapper is giggling while jumping on a pogo stick. Fat Blue is watching.] Fat Blue: Say, that pogo stick looks like fun! Harvey: Ahhh, sure is! Wanna try? Fat Blue: Oh, I’d love to! Harvey: What’s...

    Preston the Rabbit

    I know it is. But I only found this video on YouTube a day or so ago. Then I stumbled on this thread, and I thought, “2 1/2 years old or not, I’m sharing this video in this thread!”

    Dreams about Muppets

    :eek: What a nightmare I had last night! The Muppets were rehearsing, when somehow a flame started and they caught on fire! They were frantically calling to Jim Henson for help: “Help, Jim! We’re on fire!” The fire got put out, but the backs of some of them had been horribly scorched. :cry:

    If some Muppets had theme songs

    Fozzie’s theme song could be “Make ‘Em Laugh.”

    Dreams about Muppets

    I dreamed that Animal was annoying me so much, I tied his arms in a knot. :halo:

    Dreams about Muppets

    My dream was more of a Sesame Street dream. In it, some friends and I met the Queen of Six. And, just because I love this film so much, here she is! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHDgppc3Sig

    Presenting the...!

    Please, PLEASE, can someone help me with this one? I’ve been racking my brains trying to remember what happened in these little fillers! You may recall that sometimes between segments, the screen would go from completely black to some other color in a delightfully ridiculous way, like in this...

    Fan Poll: Favorite Sesame Street Christmas Production

    Lucky you. Bob was one of my favorite adults on Sesame Street. Such a sweet man, with a sweet voice. And you got to meet him. I’m green with envy. :)

    Fan Poll: Favorite Muppet Christmas Production

    A Muppet Family Christmas wins, hands down! I love that Fozzie's mother cancels her vacation plans and spends Christmas with Fozzie and his friends when they just show up at her door. We don't get to see nearly enough of Emily Bear. What a honey!

    Fan Poll: Favorite Sesame Street Christmas Production

    Christmas Eve on Sesame Street is one of my most favorite specials! :) How many kids have worried about how Santa Claus gets down skinny little chimneys, or into homes with no chimneys? And I love Bob's advice to get me through the post-Christmas letdown: "Think of this Christmas day when...

    List of potential "very special guest stars" if the Muppet Show were to return...

    Ellen DeGeneres and "Weird Al" Yankovic are definitely my top two choices. Other performers I'd like to have seen are Loreena McKennitt and Enya, and maybe Celtic Woman.

    Favorite Kermit Song

    My favorite is "The Rainbow Connection," but not just because of the inspiring music and lyrics, nor even the feeling that Kermit puts into it. I also love it because, shortly afterward, comes the part of The Muppet Movie where he is inspired to make "millions of people happy." Every time I hear...

    Alphabet chants

    Back in the 90's, Sesame Street had a series of segments that Muppet Wiki described as "chants" and "Gregorian." Each one would show a letter of the alphabet (capital, then lowercase, then both) against a background that looked like an ancient piece of art—a tapestry, for instance. As the...

    Scooter Appreciation Thread For The Most Underappraciated, Disrespected Muppet of Ever

    People hate Scooter? :confused: What's there to hate? He's friendly. He's helpful. He lets the guest star know when the show's about to start. (The cold openings with him, in Seasons Two through Four, were some of my favorite moments on the Muppet Show.) Plus, in the Lynn Redgrave episode, when...

    A Gift Exchange with the Muppets

    Well, here it is the first of December, so I thought I'd start this thread: Suppose you and the Muppets were having one of those "Secret Santa" gift exchanges? What do you think a Muppet who drew your name might give you? And what if you drew a certain Muppet's name—what might you give? I think...

    What song can you not get out of your head?

    The "Ugly" song, from the Milton Berle episode of The Muppet Show. I keep finding myself about to sing it out loud, but I just know that if I do, someone will give me a "who are you calling ugly?" look. ;)
