    April Fools: Upcoming Muppet Movies and Specials

    Well, after thinking it over, I realized that the announcement I thought about was different enough to go through with it anyway: http://www.muppetcentral.com/forum/threads/april-fools-abc-to-air-monthly-muppet-specials.62760/#post-1183422

    April Fools: ABC to air monthly Muppet specials

    The Muppets may not have a prime time show anymore, but ABC has not given up on the Muppets. For the 2017-2018 television season, ABC will be airing a brand-new Muppet special once a month. Part of it is to give the Muppets semi-regular exposure, and part is part of a new initiative by ABC to...

    April Fools: Sesame Street screenings to be held at Paley Center for Media

    I've had this April Fools idea for a month. At first, I was just going to have it be about Sesame Workshop donating a large number of episodes to The Paley Center for Media - over the month, I've changed my mind on the number many times, ranging from 30 to 60 to 65 to 130 (which I finalized) to...

    April Fools: Disney buys rights to Sony-distributed Muppet films

    It's just been announced that Disney has bought the distribution rights to The Muppets Take Manhattan, Muppets from Space, and Kermit's Swamp Years, meaning that Disney now owns the distribution rights to all of the Muppet movies except for It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie. According...

    April Fools: Sesame Street screenings to be held at Paley Center for Media

    I just saw multiple Facebook posts by Matt Vogel, Martin P. Robinson, and Alan Muraoka, saying that throughout the Summer, Sesame Workshop will host a series of Sesame Street episode screenings at Paley Center for Media, to include two full episodes plus a specially-compiled compilation. Each...

    Brian Muehl's Elmo

    At first I wondered if that was really Brian Meehl as Elmo, until I saw that interview (though I haven't watched the whole thing, and didn't see that part of the interview). Thought maybe it was an impersonation of what somebody thought Meehl's Elmo sounded like (especially when I heard a little...

    The "You know what?" thread

    In Back to the Future II, when Doc and Marty find that the police of Jennifer found her asleep and are to send her to her 2015 home, Doc tells Marty "what'll we say, that we're time travelers? We'd be committed." But they have the time machine with them. They have the evidence that they are...

    Old School DVD set ideas

    It's been a while since I last did a wishlist like this, but recently I've thought up a few things. One idea I've had for a while is an "Elmo and Friends" release, with each release featuring a mix of segments starring Elmo and another character. Next week will see the release of Elmo and...

    Classic Disney Channel Early 80's-Early 2000's

    I remember "Free Disney" not just being on Weekends. It probably at least extended to the weekend (or maybe started on the weekend), but I remember times when we'd get a free preview when it was a weekday. The first time I remember getting a free preview was on a schoolnight. I don't remember if...

    Warner Home Video now distributing Sesame Workshop DVDs

    Muppet Wiki now lists many of the segments that will be in Elmo and Cookie Monster Supersized Fun, not sure how complete it is (though the YouTube description for the promo says that it'll have 14 "stories", not sure if that means street stories or total segments, though the wiki does list 14...

    Where's the love for Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    I've recently been thinking about the old Rocky and Bullwinkle VHS releases from Buena Vista Home Video. I've recently read that R&B was the first franchise released on video by Buena Vista, which Disney had just started as a label to release properties that the company only had the video rights...

    The "You know what?" thread

    The song "One Less Bell to Answer" has this line: "Though I try to forget, it just can't be done. Each time the doorbell rings, I still run." So each time the doorbell rings, she still runs. Does she run to the doorbell (in excitement that he'll be at the door), or does she run away from the...

    Questions about anything

    So does anybody know why it's taking so long for the Back to the Future trade paperbacks to come out after the end of its storyarcs? I was looking at the Back to the Future Wiki to see when some of the storylines I'm really interested in (Who is Marty McFly?, Biff to the Future) come out as well...

    Salute Your Shorts

    I was just looking at the episode guide at Wikipedia, and just saw that dates are there. Hopefully those are correct and not guesses (I didn't check to see if there is a source for those), so great to finally (I assume) see a broadcast order. There were some surprises there, like seeing that...

    Salute Your Shorts

    I probably should have said this here a long time ago, but in the past year, I found that Tim Eyster, who now goes by Trevor Eyster, has a Facebook page, where he has posted a lot of information about the show. https://www.facebook.com/TrevorEyster/?hc_ref=NEWSFEED

    Diamond Select Toys to Produce new Muppet figures and mini mates!

    So does anybody know how well the action figures and mini mates have sold? Have they sold well enough to be a success or have they sold poorly (if not somewhere in-between)? I could be wrong, but I have a feeling that the figures line won't make it past series 4. Of course, even when they...

    Salute Your Shorts

    I don't remember seeing that one, but I thought he was in it. A description I saw somewhere said that Pinski is the only camper to treat the rock star like a normal person.
