Incorrect; Rizzo the Rat was first named in the fourth season of TMS though my memory is that initially they used a generic rat puppet and the Rizzo puppet that they use today was first introduced in the fifth season.

Although it was taped as part of Season Three, and while most guides refer to it being part of Season Three, this episode was actually the last to air in the UK as part of Season Two.

Indeed; in the Crystal Gayle episode the Prairie Dogs remove it making Kermit completely naked.

Returning to the idea of children's characters appearing on adult shows - when Elmo appeared on the Australian primetime chat show Rove Live back in 2007 and 2008 he made some very "adult" jokes. For example, host Rove MacManus said that as Elmo was going to be climbing the Sydney Harbour...

According to IMDB the shot of the sailor smashing the bottle was cut when Muppet Movie aired in NZ for the first time.

Not really, as I know that once again Kermit is breaking the fourth wall, just like he regularly did on the Muppet Show.

Well for a start, your "production order" is not that at all - the Gene Kelly episode was the last to be recorded, not the first. What you've listed instead is the production code order, something entirely different. As to the main point of your question - I don't really know myself but I...

I don't have a copy but again I've not read anything about the movies being censored. I'm guessing that the reviewer got confused because the whole song doesn't appear in the movie.

Is there a way we can report spam PMs? I got one today (it's now been deleted) but I couldn't see an option that allowed me to report the spammer.

I was surfing Wikipedia today and I discovered that TMS choreographer Norman Maen passed away in April of last year. I checked the forums but I couldn't find anyone having posted a similar thread to this.

That date lists the ITV London region air dates. What I'm wanting to know is where Muppet Central sourced their list of taping (ie recording) dates as some are different to those that are listed in Muppet Wiki.

I would like to hear from those of you who with off-air episodes of TMS that have the UK left-hand credits. I'm not overly worried as to what season(s) your episodes come from, but I would like to hear from you if possible. If you could PM me or reply to this message, that will be fine. All...

Where did you guys source the taping dates for TMS as per the Muppet Central episode guide, only there are some discrepancies with your dates and those that Muppet Wiki use.

Last year I began adding the US and UK airdates for almost every TMS episode (I got halfway through Season Four). These dates have now been taken down with the main reason being along the lines that because TMS was a syndicated show the dates were "confusing" and probably didn't need to be...

With no disrespect intended to either Steve Whitmire or Dave Goelz, they sound *nothing* like Jim Henson and Richard Hunt's versions.

It's got nothing to do with reluctance and I think you're getting a bit confused here. The issue is all to do with royalties - Disney cannot clear the songs in question for R1 release. They simply can't release the special uncut for R1; if they did then the likely scenario is they could find...

This is actually the first of three sections featuring Statler & Waldforf on The Muppet Show Album; this section comes after the Mississippi Mud number. The other comments come after "Pachalafaka" and "I'm in Love With a Big Blue Frog".

Have you tried Muppet Wiki?

If anyone has off-air copies of the Lynn Redgrave, Roger Miller and Roy Rogers & Dale Evans episodes of TMS with either of the original ITC or ATV copyright dates, could you please tell me what those dates are? It's to help me in working out a special fan order for Season Three of TMS.

Well, technically they did change it slightly; the R1 cover for Season Two has the title of the DVD in yellow but for R4 it was changed to green.
