Gonzo's Species

[Chilly Down]

Actually, Dr. Tooth and Daffyfan, I loved MCC, and my least favorite of the post-Jim movies was Treasure Island. I felt the novelty of seeing them act out a novel was gone, I missed Kermit, Piggy and Fozzie being in central roles (not as much of a problem for me in MCC, because at that time it was a change of pace).

But that's just my opinion. I haven't seen that one since it was in the theaters, and I hope to check it out again now that it's on DVD.

MTI is good, MFS and KSY are not.

They should have had a "Muppet Movie" seperating MCC and MTI, even if it were MFS because we NEEDED Kermit, not Captain Smollett--and in reality, we didn't need him as Bob Cratchit, either.

Still, I think both films were done to ease us into Steve's Kermit ,as were the albums Unpigged and Beach Party.

Personally, I liked MFS and KSY, but I feel that on a few levels KSY throws some of the chronology of the Muppets story out of whack.

One of the things is that young Kermit is found by young Jim Henson, who is inspired to create Kermit whose life we are currently viewing on the screen, which means in an alternate universe there's another Kermit ??? I appreciate the call for sentimentality there, but c'mon! If you're writing something that is supposed to be history, don't change the history!

Okay, that's my KSY complaint.

MY KSY COMPLAIT:

Ahm,

Needs better puppets, better script writing, more and better songs, better...

Here we go...

It starts out simply as an argument about what we think Gonzo is, but soon gets into everything JHC has done wrong lately. Before long, we're tearing the very company we love into peices.

*crashes to knees*

SORRY. I am soooo sorry.

Please forgive me Henson's.

Seriously yes, I know they are having troubles at present.

Doozer Knitting Song

Performed by: The Doozers

It's neat and it's sweet.
It's a ding dong treat,
Knittin' socks for little feet.
Just sittin' with your knittin' all day long.

You know, knittin's friendly,
And knittin's fun.
Knittin's good for everyone,
And that is why we sing this knittin' song.

Well it's knit one pearl two.
What's a Doozer gonna do,
With a gol-darn,
Ball of yarn?
It's stitch three drop four.
Pitch that knittin' out the door right now.

There's a green, there's a red.
There's a knot in my thread.
A knitter needs his noggin read,
So don't come 'round and speak to me of yarn.

You can k-nit all day and k-nothin' fits.
'Cause only k-nitwits like to k-nit,
And k-nittin' k-needles just ain't worth a darn.

Well it's knit one pearl two.
What's a Doozer gonna do,
With a gol-darn,
Ball of yarn?
It's stitch three drop four.
Pitch that knittin' out the door right now

I'm not sure that's what she meant.....
And for the record, I liked MCC and MFS, but not KSY or MTI that much. But, hey, I'm a Muppet fan! I ain't too picky!!! I take my Muppets where I can get 'em!!! (For the most part.)
