    "The Muppets" first preview screening

    When I heard Wayne and Wanda get dialogue, I figured maybe they'd sing a song that'd end early. But the track listing for the soudntrack has been announced and there's no Wayne and Wanda track, so I guess their dialogue comes in some other way (unless they do get a song and it just doesn't...

    Skits of the Early 70s

    I've heard about Frank putting his hand on the right-hand performers hands so they wouldn't gesture too much. Though I don't know of many segments where it's obvious his character's holding onto the left hand (I think I've noticed it in a few Harvey Kneeslapper segments). I wonder if that...

    Skits of the Early 70s

    Somehow I think she didn't perform as much as the other main performers during the early years. In Street Gang I think it's said that Fran worked on the show two weeks a season in the early years and continued focusing on her acting career. I noticed that while she was credited her first season...

    Skits of the Early 70s

    I rememer a long time ago Earl Kress made a post somewhere on this forum saying that voice performers got paid the same for up to two roles. Though at the same time it does seem odd considering that in the first season Caroll Spinney supposedly got paid 200 dollars a week instead of by show...

    New Muppet AMC Theaters Policy Video

    I think all of them did, except maybe the one where they watch "The Picnic".

    The Muppet Mindset

    It's said that Sam's speech on nudity is presented without the "I need a robe" line. That line's only included in the audio version. On the show he merely walks off-stage looking embarrassed (which we can't really see in audio-only form). In The Muppet Show Book he has the added line "I am a bird".
