I didn't watch all of this broadcast, and there were times I wasn't paying attention, but is it just me or were the Scrubs and Fear Factor scenes cut? Though if those were, it was kind of a strength. I always thought it was weird that the Muppets determined that Miss Piggy was a big-enough...

Not surprisingly, they also cut the scene with the NBC logo on Kermit's foot. Actually, they kept the dialogue in, but I think they dubbed it over a different shot of Kermit talking. I can't remember if the NBC music played in this scene or not, but if it did then that was cut.

I'm watching this right now, and they cut out the entire Crocodile Hunter scene. So those seeing this for the first time suddenly saw Fozzie looking like the Grinch without knowing why.

Now that I think about it, considering the one with Guy Smiley was available on Verizon phones in the past, was that sketch released in english or another language (I think I've read the service included non-English segments)?

He wasn't in Muppets' Wizard of Oz. Maybe it's just me but it seems like he was gone during that period, and then came back in 2008 (while Johnny and Sal started to be dropped). Then again there weren't many Muppet projects between 2006-2008.

Maybe I did, but can't remember if I asked it here or somewhere else (or maybe I did ask here and somewhere else). I don't remember if I had gotten an answer. I guess I'll have to find time to search through all 115 pages of posts to see.

Some time ago the Tough Pigs people hosted a panel about the book, and now the event has been posted on YouTube by The Nerdist YouTube channel.

How do ratings work, anyway? I know that there are nielsen families who keep track of what they watch and when, and I think there's a satellite-thingy which keeps track of TVs that have the programs on, but I recently read an article about Thursday nights ratings (regarding the Muppets & Lady...

I've been reading the comments section of the review at The Muppet Mindset, and it seems like many who watched the special and commented there really hated it. While some of us had positive things to say about it in this thread as well as the thread at Tough Pigs (and the review at The Muppet...

Letters to Santa didn't originally air on Thanksgiving.

In the scenes with the Electric Mayhem, I kept expecting Lips to say something, considering that last winter Steve Whitmire supposedly had Lips say something in a way that makes him know who the character is now. This would have been an opportunity. I can't believe that Janice was mostly cut...

The last season of SCTV aired on Cinemark (or was it Cinemax?) in a 45-minute format. That channel was commercial free, so what's the deal of having a show that short? With no commercial interruptions, they'd need 15 minutes of commercial time to fill before the next program (or maybe split the...

A lot of people are saying that the Muppets were treated more like guests despite sharing the title with Lady Gaga. And while the non-Muppet scenes may be a little too long, I'd say that if the Muppets were just guests they probably wouldn't have had all those Muppet segments without Lady Gaga.

This special was a lot better than I was hoping. So most of the non-Muppet portions weren't that good, and I feel like some of the songs (even Kermit and Lady Gaga's duet) were just too long. But this is not the worst special the Muppets have ever done. I think it's better than The Muppets Go...

A drawing can be called a "sketch". A skit can also be called a "sketch". Comedy sketches are usually written. So you can write OR draw a sketch!

I didn't think to look up twering until right after making my post. Which leads to another question... Why do so many of us (including myself) ask questions without thinking to look it up on Google? Should I look up the answer to that question on Google?

Wow, now there's people questioning why Mo Frackle is there? Currently he's the most obscure character that we know is in the special. In fact that number where he's shown is like those numbers on The Muppet Show that would have the main cast and an obscure character or two.

What IS twerking?

Yeah I'm pretty sure there are no season 30-34 episodes on iTunes. In fact before I did my last post I checked the iTunes Store page at Muppet Wiki to see which "seasons" are on iTunes (each grouping of episodes by season is just half a season). Of course if they wanted to do a 12-episode...

One thing I suddenly thought would be great for the 45th anniversary: A special iTunes release of 45 episodes, one per season. Yeah, it might be a bit much, since somebody at Sesame Workshop confirmed via correspondence with one of our members that there's no current plans to release any more...
