Little things we've noticed

In Muppets Most Wanted, did anyone else notice that Captain Blood's remains were a redressed Dead Tom?

And in the Rudolph Nureya episode, it seems they didn't want to make full tuxedos for any of the live-hand characters. Sam wore a sleeveless tuxedo (and Sam doesn't seem like the kind of person who'd wear a tux like that), while Rowlf and Fozzie were outfitted in the black bow ties and white vest. Though Mahna Mahna's tuxedo attire was also the same as theirs.

Well, Sam has WINGS, remember?

Anyone notice that by the time season 3 was happening, the Gonzo puppet took a turn for the worse? Every time he'd talk, you'd see the between of his eyes, and they're do a very odd angle up wards, you could almost see the mechanisim lifting his eyelids. Thank Frog they fixed him by season 4.

Hmm...interesting...

Welp, that gave me a good chuckle.

OK, you guys know how Gonzo's been getting a LOT of Christmas love? Well, lets look all the way back to the Great Santa Claus Switch. Snarl, Cigar Box Frackle, Proto-Gonzo, the season 1 Gonzo Puppet. Was actually the first Frackle to be kind to Santa Claus with out getting the magic treatment like Thig and Thog did. He just upright asks Santa is he's the real deal and would like a baseball mit. Eversince then, Gonzo had major subplots in Christmas specials like Family Christmas, or out right hosted them, like in Muppet Christmas Carol. Or had very heart touching moments in them, like in Very Merry Muppet Christmas.
Or meet Santa again, like in Letters to Santa.

It was all planned from the begining ever since Gonzo popped out of that Cigar Box and said Hi to Santa.

How about this

Gonzo is the Only Muppet to have a speaking role in all 8 Theatrical Films and be performed by the same performer in each one

This is something I noticed and also a question.

I'm watching The Muppet Show episode with Lynda Carter, specifically the scene where Miss Piggy becomes Wonder-Pig.

Is this the only scene outside of Pigs in Space that centered around Piggy, Link, and Dr. Strangepork?

In The Muppets when Scooter is sweeping the abandoned theater, you can see a chandelier that looks just like the one from the "At the Dance" segments

When I was watching Muppet Treasure Island on Talk Like a Pirate Day online, Brool, one of Cantus's minstrels from Fraggle Rock was one of Blind Pew's bad guys.

Replying to an old post here, but...

There are actually several Fraggle Rock characters that keep reappearing in minor parts. (Or more accurately, the puppets that were used for those characters - so theoretically it's another creature from whatever-race-they-are.)

From memory - Brool, Murray, Wander McMooch, Begoony, Mudwell and Sprocket all turn up in Christmas Carol, most of them are in Treasure Island, and some turn up in Mopatop's Shop as well (I've seen episodes with Begoony and Murray).

One minor thing I've noticed in Liza Minelli's episode.When Gonzo performs his musical number with him and the others dressed in angel outfits,Floyd was among them.But right after the number,we see the audience chamber applauding,and Floyd appears in the orchestra pit.

During the last part of the scene in TMM where Miss Piggy comes to Kermit's rescue in the barn,Kermit's tuxedo is ripped open,revealing his trademark collar to be missing.Yet when he temporarily lost his collar during TMS episode that guest starred Crystal Gayle,he was practically traumatized and felt naked.

In Candice Bergen's episode,Fozzie pours a bag of white flour all over Kermit,covering him in flour completely,as a practical joke.Immediately following that scene is Candice Bergen's closing musical number,where Kermit appears among the muppet crowd as if nothing had happened to him.
