    Question about The 12 Days of Christmas from A Christmas Together TV Special

    When they sang 12 Days of Christmas, was it scripted when Fozzie kept missing his line or was that improvised? My brother and I were watching it on youtube and it just made us crack up. It looked like it might have been a mistake that they just went with, seeing as how it's such a long song to...

    Whoopi Goldberg should not be invited to be on another Muppet special IMO.

    Due to her comments defending Polanski and the crime he was convicted of, there is no way this woman should appear in any future muppet specials. In my opinion, what she said was completely appaulling and the fact that she doesn't seem to have the protection of children as a priority makes me...

    Question about Disney and licensing characters.

    Why is it that Kermit needs to be removed from and many scenes need to be edited out of every re-released Muppet production that comes out from a different company than Disney(ie emmett otter, christmas toy, muppet family christmas), but yet Disney has no problem letting NBC use their characters...

    Anybody remember the old Ernie ragdolls? Knickerbocker?

    Did they ever make Bert ragdolls to go with Ernie? I'll link to the Ernie ragdoll that I'm talking about on ebay or something if somebody wants to know what I'm talking about. :p

    Did anybody here ever have that cardboard Sesame Street building from the mid 70's?

    I've searched the internet and can't find a single word about that building. It was about 4 feet tall if I remember right. I don't know what happened to it. I'm sure we ruined it, with it being cardboard and all. But I have fond memories of it and wish I could see it again. The front door of the...

    Why does Oscar the Grouch have a line in the Chilly Down song?

    I've been listening to the Labyrinth soundtrack a lot lately and keep hearing Oscar with the line that goes something like, "And your feet are dragging on the ground..." Now I know we didn't see him in the movie, but did he make some kind of cameo appearance in the song?

    Does the Muppet store in New York still exist?

    Did it close down? I tried to do a search on the internet for it and nothing came up. My brother is going out to New York tomorrow for a week and I asked him to stop by the store if he saw it and pick something up for me. Sorry if this is in the wrong topic. :confused:

    Did Kermit's Christmas Capers ever air last December?

    One of the main news articles on the site here from last September or October was about a new Muppet Christmas special that was coming to TV tentatively titled Kermit's Christmas Capers. The show was supposed to air this last December before Christmas. I totally forgot about it and hope that I...

    Daddy Dear

    I just heard it on Muppet Central Radio. I had forgotten all about it until now and had forgot how scary the song and the visuals were. It's called Daddy Dear and is about the letter D. They sing about ducks not having ears and dragons don't smoke cigars, the gophers dig the holes so they can...

    Who does lead vocals for Chilly Down?

    There is a part where the lead singer laughs and then recovers. I'm surprised they didn't edit it out. Here is where the laugh is: Don't got no problems (no problems) Ain't got no suitcase (no suitcase) Ain't got no clothes to worry about (no clothes to worry about) Ain't got no real...

    Has Elmo's voice changed over the years?

    Is it just me or has it changed? I've been listening to muppet radio all night and whenever an Elmo piece comes on, I can barely stand it. How did Kevin Clash morph Elmo's voice into the way it is today without us noticing right away? I like the old Elmo voice. The current Elmo voice sounds...

    Jim Henson's The Christmas Toy

    Once again, I have to remind everyone to ask for this on Region 1 DVD. I believe FUN! Entertainment(Do I have that right?)holds the rights to this special now. I can't mess with multi-region dvd players and I'm sure many other people can't as well. Let's get this baby on region 1 DVD once and...

    Terry Angus' shark puppet didn't sell.

    I was hoping for a character puppet with a Christmas theme for his next one, but he came out with the shark and nobody bid on it. At least not over the reserve. I hope he comes out with a cool character puppet for his next one he puts on ebay.

    Still no The Christmas Toy Region 1 DVD ?

    I'm really disappointed that after a whole year after being released on Region 2 DVD that we haven't got The Christmas Toy coming on Region 1 DVD. My tape is wearing out and I would really love to have this one on DVD, unedited and uncut! Does Universal hold the rights to publish and distribute...
