Buzzfeed recently did an article called "25 Facts and Tidbits About The Muppets That Will Blow Your Mind".

The facts are pretty well-known by Muppet fans, but are unknown by the mainstream. Some facts I'm not sure about, especially the one that says the reason why Nigel wasn't the host for TMS was because he was "too wimpy". I'm happy they didn't mix up Sesame Street with The Muppets, and didn't treat TMS like a "kiddy" show.

It's funny how I already know all of these facts. :laugh:
Who said anything about Fozzie being named after Faz Fazakas?

It also says that the Muppet Show ran for six years. :laugh:
