At the risk of adding a few more muffin crumbs to this thread, I can't help but notice a certain modesty on your part. What would you recommend I read out of your own production, Count?

Weeell, I'm getting there. I've actually read "Visions, But Not Illusions". I guess I'm catching up and, quite obviously, slowly going as insane as the rest of you :crazy: .
Muffins are nice. (Surrepticiously advancing towards the Count's fridge ... only to add more muffins, of course.)...
Here I come barging in, fur flying, ears flopping! What!? You can't stop posting this story! It's the most effectively teasing and suspenseful fan fic I've read here so far, meaning that it's all the more horrible that there isn't more of it. This situation needs to be remedied. I'm fairly new...
You are a very weird individual, and I mean that as the highest of compliments. Your fan fics aren't really like anything else, are they? I've started reading "Rainbows Have Nothing to Hide", and now you tell me you don't have time for it? Well, your dark universe will suffice for now. It is a...
*Amiably growly Rowlf voice*: Hey there Leyla, there's a new dog in town. *end of amiably growly Rowlf voice*.
I tend to be around here quite a bit these days, so I guess it's only polite for me to say hello to someone who is obviously returning after a prolonged absence. Thus: hello! :)...
Another one just occurred to me, and that has got to be my absolute favourite of Sam's: early on in MTI, he goes on about how dangerous the captain is (it turns out to be nice old Kermit of course), and continues to misinterpret Kermit's commands as a call for the strictest disciplin possible. I...
Humshki burrdi boo shka nishki me! (Swedish for "Yes I am" :) ). Just kidding, as I hope you understand. Swedish really doesn't sound much like the culinary lunatic we all know and love, but the funny thing is that he's immensely popular in Sweden! Go figure. By the way, the Swedish Chef clip in...
Completely off? Could you tell me a little more, please? There seems to be more to this than I realised. Do you have a link, or could you just say a few words about the recasting and the TV Land Awards thing? I would appreciate it.
Pianodog.
James Coco was very funny in that scene, but I did feel for old Rowlf! :sympathy:
On the "Funniest Sam moments" thread I mentioned the "*** willow" song featuring Sam and Rowlf. It's really Sam's skit, but since Rowlf is in it too, I thought I'd add to this thread as well.
Pianodog.
"You know I take good care of the people I'm close to." He sure is smooth, that little froggy!
Great chapter, I must admit. "Sex and Violence", Kermit trying ever so carefully to re-enter the world of romance, and of course "The Rainbow Connection". I have wondered about how you intended to...
I'm so old and mangy, I actually caught the Muppet Show when it started (though it may have premiered a year later in Sweden than it did in the States), and after seeing Mahna-Mahna on the very first episode, I was hooked! I never missed an episode. As a kid, I was also very much a Star Wars...
"I've got ten minutes of jokes about the war of 1812" is a classic to me. I also very much like the long sequence in AVMMCM where he is desperately trying to deliver the bag of money. And anytime he goes "Whoa-haha!" just cracks me up! "Aaaahh, funn-eeee!" Wonderful character, and I think Eric...
I just want to go against the stream here and say that I adore the way Fozzie looked in Season 1, with the extended corners of his mouth, movable or not. I think he's too streamlined these days, and isn't his fur a lot shorter than it used to be?
Pianodog.
"Am I the only one offended by this?"
Speed Tracer mentions Sam's song/poem number with Rowlf, and Sam is hysterical in that one: "*** willow *** willow" is all he has to say, and he's embarrassed and not completely convinced that this is cultural. After asking why people off stage are...
In my humble opinion, VMMC is by far the best of the newer Muppet movies. It has a great deal of heart, and the Muppets, for once, are playing themselves!
And Amicus, if the reasons you state for recasting are the true ones, then I can appreciate the thought. But: first of all I don't think...
