As I said, anything with "Muppet" on it is condemned to the children's section. Anywhere. Period. :frown:

Yes that's very true. Everywhere I've seen Muppet video's they're always in the kids sections. Depressing indeed. It makes you feel stupid looking through the kids section so determinedly trying to find the Muppet movies you want.

The funny thing is that older people are the ones that buy the Muppet stuff. I'd bet more people over 18 watch and like the stuff than children even do. After all, they sell Sesame, Fraggle Rock, Care Bears, Spongebob, etc stuff at Hot Topic. Now, when was the last time you saw a 4-year-old in Hot Topic? Heh...

You are very true my observent friend. All of us on here I assume are over 18, so I believe it would be wise for retailers to put Muppet video's in the comedy section.

I know what you mean, I feel stupid when I look through the childrens section sometimes and even when I buy certain things but then I think, well its their fault for putting the muppet stuff in the kids section and I'm a muppet fan and I'm proud of it! if someone doesnt like it then too bad.

Hallelujah! lol

Really though, I don't care that people see me with Muppet stuff. I wear Muppet shirts under my usual trench coat all the time and I don't care what people think. I mean really, if I cared what people thought I wouldn't buy action figures. And dang it, I'm d**n proud of it too! :big_grin:

I haven't been able to find the Palisades line at any of the following stores:

Target
Gamestop
Meijer
K-Mart
Walmart

We should boycott Ohio.
