    Muppets Have not really been good since Jim Henson passed.

    You’re bringing this up while having no proof he actually said that. 🤷‍♂️ The guy only performed characters and wrote a few sketches and created films for the show. The otherwise changing show of Sesame Street came from an otherwise bigger team behind the scenes and we still would have gotten...

    You’re basically putting words in a dead man’s mouth, my dude.

    Muppets Have not really been good since Jim Henson passed.

    He may have created them but I personally feel they were still able to go on strong even with a few flops here and there. “Muppet Christmas Carol,” “Muppet Treasure Island” and “Muppets from Space” were all very enjoyable movies imo, as were the two rebooted Disney flicks in 2011 and 2014. The...

    Muppets Have not really been good since Jim Henson passed.

    I think you’re an example of a Muppet fan who gives him way too much credit if I’m being honest.

    People complaining about Matt Vogel replacing Steve Whitmire as Kermit the Frog

    The capitalization is more a mocking term with these comments, which may not make my own response look any better, I fully acknowledge that, but it is an annoying trend I see with people who praise Matt’s Kermit, which more power to them if they enjoy his Kermit, but going as far as to say he...

    People complaining about Matt Vogel replacing Steve Whitmire as Kermit the Frog

    Gonna be honest, Matt isn’t my favorite Kermit but he has at least gotten a bit more tolerable for me. That said, I really can’t stand these annoying Jim Henson bootlickers that constantly say “mAtT’s KeRmIt SoUnDs JuSt LiKe JiM hENsOn” no. Literally not even close at all.

    Sesame Street classic clips on YouTube

    If characters pushing each other is the reason it was cut, we really are just walking on egg shells now.

    Why did the Dragon Tales episode "Goodbye Little Caterpoozle" differ from other kiddie show episodes about the death of a pet?

    If I’m being honest I……… really am starting to think you’re a real life version of this guy from a lot of the stuff you’ve posted here.

    Anyone have Skype?

    It’s honestly just a thing of the past now for me. Much so like MySpace.

    Question about "Follow that Bird"

    I didn’t really understand the PG rating myself, but eh. 🤷‍♂️ I remember seeing that and “Most Wanted” in my senior year of high school and second year of college respectively. Both really felt nice seeing them on the big screen and making a big comeback. “Most Wanted” definitely lead into that...

    Question about "Follow that Bird"

    It’s a case where its American introduction series “Shining Time Station” was forced into the plot. It could have easily just done fine as a made for TV movie exclusive to American audiences for “Shining Time Station” like how “Thomas and the U.K. Trip” was made exclusively for Japan during the...

    That one also bombed yes.

    Question about "Follow that Bird"

    I remember as a kid how super excited I was getting to see “Thomas” on the big screen back in 2000. It especially felt really cool seeing the British train series cross-over with its American introduction series “Shining Time Station” which I also have fond memories of watching on PBS in...

    Muppets Shouldn't Curse

    Oh, that clip. I completely forgot about that. I don’t know what people were hearing with thinking that Grover said that, but I guess it’s no different than how so many people keep thinking Oscar’s brother says “F*cking sick” in this clip even though he actually says “I’m getting sick” (there’s...

    Muppets Shouldn't Curse

    I’m not sure where you heard of this cause Grover has never dropped the F bomb by accident on camera (though I’m sure there’s possible unreleased behind the scenes footage of some outtakes here and there that maybe had Frank ad-lib a swear or two as Grover after the director gives the cut cue...

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    Speaking from personal experience as well, I’ve dealt with a fan from the U.K who’s……. Always been known to be pretty narcissistic who shamed me for saying that I honestly prefer the U.S. George Carlin narrations over the original U.K. ones with Michael Angelis (I was only 14 at the time and...

    Dealing with depression and anxiety

    Ohohohohohohoho is there a LOOOOOOOOT to unpack with this fandom….. SIF (Sodor Island Forums) are known for being narcissistic holier than thou ***hats who think they’re above everyone else just because “they’ve been in the fandom the longest.” They look down on those who joined the Thomas...
