During the Ethel Merman episode, Fozzie tells the audience he only wants to see "REAL Fozzie Bear fans in the audience" before turning his back on them, and you can see the audience is slightly confused as what to do. He turns around, only to see that Statler and Waldorf are the only people...

Here's something I feel could use some debate; In "Sex and Violence", Nigel, Floyd and Sam all seem to get along perfectly well, but at some point their relationship seems to become less personal and more professional. And sometimes right-down insulting. Examples; Floyd mentions that Nigel...

T. R. refers to him as their "leader" in the original theme song, he seems to be the character best identified with Jim, who is "leader" of the Muppeteers. Jim also compared his cast with their characters. Though I often wonder, since Nigel was the host of the original pilot, was it suppose...

Eyes of the Female Koozbanian Creature This is something that has been on my mind for as long as I can remember. Were her eyes positioned backwards on her head or did she have a mechanism or something? It just seems when the camera focuses on her before her mating ritual, her eyes have a lot in...

I often think to myself whenever I watch the Muppet Show DVDs is that I would have liked to work with those people. ^_^

After the first number in the "Charles Aznavour", Gonzo tells Kermit "I...I noticed I haven't been in the last couple of shows". Hadn't he appeared in the final number of the Paul Williams episode? That always bothered me and I would consider it to be a goof on the writers' parts.

I was watching the 3rd disk of TMS Season 1 yesterday and noticed Gonzo became a bit more energetic in "Ben Vereen" and also in the episodes following "Vincent Pryce", not counting "Twiggy". I think the praise he'd long desired from the audience gave him confidence in himself as an actor, which...

"Feathers"? I guess you can say Cantus has feathers, for want of a better word for those bright things on his head. Personally, I often thought he'd styled his hair.

Not likely. More likely it was the chance to use his talents on others that made him accept her request. Though, in "The Secret Life of Convincing John", he most likely helped Webley because he was also indecisive and could relate to his troubles. In his song telling the Fraggles "Don't eat...

Bren brings an interesting subject to add to this; Cantus looks especially ancient and mystical because his body seems covered in orange fur. Where this could lead some to think of him as a hippie, I think perhaps he's lived longer than anyone else and could be an ancient breed of Fraggle...

I'm not saying he's bad, just that he wants everyone to think he's more important than he really is and that his power to convince anyone into doing anything could make other Fraggles a bit uneasy, maybe why "Convincing John is the type of Fraggle no one goes to see". Think of him like a fox...

Anyone ever wonder just WHAT sort of rat species Philo and Gunge are meant to be? Whatever they are, their kind either come from swamps or stay close to Gorgs so they can steal spare food, right?

Since I've done one on Cantus, I figured another on Jim's other recurring character would be good. Compared to Cantus, who seems to be as wise and mature as he looks, Convincing John is all flash and no substance, looking as though he were struck by lightning, which may be possibly, as when...

I get the feeling Cantus has been with the other four for long enough for them to tolerate his occasional episodes of being overbearing or spouting what they feel is nonsense. I'm not sure if Brio or Murray was the first Minstrel to join Cantus, most likely Murray, since he seemed closer to...

He also doesn't share the same predjudice that Gorgs are violent, dumb giants that just care about themselves. I don't think he would have even CONSIDERED approaching Jr. if he thought that. Cantus recognizes that Jr. is also a living thing with responisbilities and dreams, and despite his...

Personally, I think Cantus comes off as the most mature of his kind. He knows how to enjoy himself, but also knows that there's a time and place to be silly and frivilous. He may also be aware of how confusing others find him and uses it to his advantage when saying there are only 5 Minstrels as...

No, I think that was it's only scene.

It was both, but they used Lenny because he wasn't as well-known as the frog, and also because Kermit was such a beloved character.

Wikipedia has a pic of Lenny performing Inchworm.

Is it me, or did the Rich Little episode seem to be the only time Lenny the Lizard appeared without his pointed teeth? I saw a picture of him during the "Incworm" sketch and didn't see his teeth at all. Personaly, I think he looked better without his teeth.
