I assume this was unscripted, so it's funny that Dr. Teeth and Floyd give the same response when hearing the name Justin Bieber.

If you just count the MuppeTelevision segments, then that's 7/9. Then again, Rowlf was also a bigger character than Statler and Waldorf, and they were both recast soon after Richard Hunt had died. And their recast voices were a lot different from the voices Jim and Richard had given them...

Regarding first appearance errors, I decided to look at all the pages for characters who first appeared on Muppets Tonight and check the Muppet Wiki page listing the production order, as that is used for the Muppets Tonight character debuts (it's also used for the MuppeTelevision debuts, though...

Well, when those were made, The Jim Henson Company owned all its characters, and might not have cared that much if there was confusion. Disney doesn't want to confuse the marketplace about who owns who. And casual fans do get confused. As a kid, I knew who "The Muppet Show" Muppets were and...

Well, today's WMW spotlight's Constantine. I think there is one little spoiler in there (at the very least I don't remember knowing about it, outside of the junior novel): http://themuppetmindset.blogspot.com/2014/03/weekly-muppet-wednesdays-constantine.html

That's too bad. I know that he's listed in the credits, but I guess that's not too different from Zoot being in the credits for The Muppets despite not having any lines in that.

I just saw "Pretty in Pink" for the first time, and then looked at that page on TV Tropes, and it's said that this movie is obviously '80s even for an '80s movie. But as I was watching it, while it does have a lot of '80s styles and music, I feel it looks more like the '90s version of the '80s...

I'm sure that Mr. Peabody and Sherman were included because of the movie. If not for the movie, I would have expected Dudley Do-Right to be included (I like Mr. Peabody better, but Do-Right seems to have been the most popular supporting segment), and if I was in charge I would have included...

I just saw that Funko Pop is supposed to be coming out with figures of Rocky, Bullwinkle, Mr. Peabody, and Sherman. http://www.hollywoodgonegeek.com/2014/01/toys-rocky-bullwinkle-mr-peabody-sherman-funko-pop-vinyl-figures-revealed.html

Actually, I just found out that Funko Pop is coming out with some Bullwinkle figures this month. The toy line includes Rocky, Bullwinkle, Mr. Peabody, and Sherman. Here's the info...

Well, it would cost money to use the other companies characters. I don't know whether Sesame Workshop would charge Disney more for use of any of its characters than it did for a clip. But also, Disney doesn't want to confuse the marketplace when it comes to who belongs to who (which was one of...

I'm more surprised that he didn't show up in The Muppets, since the character was in a number of productions around the time. Maybe they did have the puppet on set but none of the background puppeteers bothered to use him for any scenes. Now I'm wondering how many of those credited...

My phone got the Big House stage a few days ago. Wow, The Wall background includes a few characters who can't be digitized yet, like Wayne, Wanda, and Uncle Deadley. The Wall also has a few small characters I can't identify. I'm thinking maybe they're members of the baby band, but one of...

I just saw the official credits listing on Muppet Wiki. So there's actually "LA Performers", "UK Performers", and "Additional UK Performers". First time one of the movies did performer listings like this. Louise Gold was listed merely under UK Performers, as opposed to it saying that she...

Oh, I didn't realize that was you.

So you also run a website?

One thing I often wonder, if something like this were to be done: Would/should they include one episode from each represented season, or skip at least one season and include multiple episodes from one of those seasons? Season three has a number of really notable episodes (Linda moving to...

I read that when Jerry Beck appeared on Stu's Show yesterday, he confirmed that the Rocky and Bullwinkle short is still coming out later this year, only with a different movie (I think it's the movie that the short that comes with Mr. Peabody and Sherman is related to).
