I didn't know Gonzo introduced a broadcast of that special. Though I did know the special was rebroadcast on The Disney Channel.

I'm pretty sure they normally don't do tours. The official Jim Henson Company website had said that the place is for business and not open for tours (not sure if that info's still on the site), I also recall seeing somewhere at Henson.com that they usually only give tours to relatives of...

You know, a month ago I wrote a series of articles for The Muppet Mindset on my top 40 favorite Muppet Show segments, and after posting the article I realised that most of my favorite Kermit segments from the show come from season two. My list included Kermit's interview with the Koozebanian...

One thing I've noticed is that in The Muppets while Frank's vocals are heard in "Mahna Mahna" the beginning when Muppet Show clips are shown do not feature any known performances by Frank Oz, outside of the opening. I'd like to think Disney wouldn't need permission from Oz to include clips of...

When it comes to why Wayne and Wanda were hired back in The Muppets, maybe Sam pressured Kermit into hiring them back.

Some mentioned that Gonzo was not in the Rainbow Connection finale. I had not noticed Gonzo's absense there. But while Gonzo was shown still moving his arm in a circle with his bowling ball stuck to his finger, and during the credits it was shown finally coming off. But between those scenes...

Wayne and Wanda were seen dancing in At the Dance in the third episode. I can't remember if they danced outside of that segment, though they never got any At the Dance dialogue. Which reminds me, back when Palisades made the action figures, I initially thought that if an At the Dance playset...

I was watching the movie recently and had noticed that, aside from deleted scenes, between the scene with Gonzo quitting his plumbing business and his blowing the trumpet in the opening he does seem to just be there alot (just like many lesser characters in the film). I don't recall him doing...

All of the first two seasons have been reviewed, and now the articles will be taking a break for the summer, but unfortunately it's unknown whether they'll return.

The Muppet Show aired in first-run syndication, so all over the United States the show was on different local stations at different times and different days of the week. Also, a lot of TV shows have changed their timeslots over the years, they were produced for network TV, cable TV, syndication...

I downloaded this a few days ago. It's fun to use. I noticed on a screen there's a green martian. I've never seen a green one before. Not sure if it was some sort of coloring or what.

I've read a rumor (which I wouldn't be surprised if it was true) that Jerry Juhl quit writing the movie because of the bathroom humor. The closest confirmation I can find to it being true is a Muppet Central news article which announced that Jerry Juhl left production of the film due to...

And in the past few years there's been this trend where on the spine of the DVD releases a character is always shown full-body. The spine of the Best of Sesame Street Spoofs! release shows a full-body shot of Guy Smiley (not sure if it's a new photo or if they added legs to an existing photo...

I assume that any cuts or parts that get put together would have been hidden by the clothing. Aside from Baby Sinclair we never see any of the dinosaurs characters naked.

I was looking at the back of Muppet Race Mania recently, and noticed this line of text: "Karting off the lavish sets of their six blockbuster movies". By referring to them all as "blockbuster" movies that would mean Muppets from Space was a blockbuster movie, but that's obviously not true. Talk...

I like the new layout for the Weekly Muppet Wednesday gallery, categorizing by character. Just for fun I decided to keep track of how many articles there are for each category: Muppets - 42 Sesame Street - 31 Fraggle Rock - 13 Other - 5

Actually I read it was September 1989. Sample pages for the 40th anniversary book were shown on Tough Pigs before the book came out, and info on Jim's last day appeared in one of the sample pages (which was not in the final version of the book).

Actually it's widely sourced that the performers work freelance. When Steve Whitmire was interviewed for Tough Pigs in 2008 he said that even with Disney owning the Muppets the Muppet performers remain freelance (I wonder if that's changed with the recent movie). But I have read of occasions...

I watched Scent of the Reptile (and Earl and Pearl) last night. It's been awhile since I last watched Working Girl (most of the last season episodes are average, but there are some gems in the last season as well), but I recall there being hung newspapers with headlines regarding the campaign...

If you have to go without internet in your home for awhile, couldn't you go to a local library and post articles on the library computers? I don't know how it is with all libraries so yours may be different (I assume there's a library iny our town) but my local libraries allow internet access...
