hey SarahOnBway did you help on this Muppet Mockumentary? :smile:
HA, I WISH!

You know what's also wonderful about this reintroduction to the Muppets idea? Not only do new viewers get to know them, but in a way, we the fans get to know them all over. Sure we know Everything from Sam and Friends to *coughWoOcough*, but now there's new character-based information that we get to find out... It's kind of like meeting good friends at a reunion that you fell out of touch with, but SO less awkward.

Haha, I'm way too excited, it's hard to contain my joy. :excited:

*BOUNCES!!* Sarah, you are 100% correct! I feel like I get to meet my old high school buddies at a reunion again with this show! I mean, sure they can't change that much, but they've gotta change a little! Oh this is so exciting!!

I agree 100% with Prawnie's 100% agreement with Sarah. That's exactly what this show is...sorry, could be...both an introduction, and a RE-introduction...if you think about it, there are probably people who watched TMS who may have forgotten that the Muppets still exist, so they will NEED reminding, otherwise they think that Scooter was the band's roadmanager (Oh, wait, in the movie he WAS. :stick_out_tongue:)

GO Muppets!

I think that's one of the first things that needs to be addressed in the show, we don't know what Scooter is. :stick_out_tongue:

Go MUPPETS!!

Did Scooter play a part in Muppets Tonight? I can't remember. It's so hard to find good quality MT episodes, so I only have my memories to go on...

Nope... Scooter wasn't in MT, his backstage stage manager duties were taken over by Rizzo.
If you're in need of quality MT episodes, talk to Justin Faulknor, MuppetLord, or KermiClown.

Thanks Count. I didn't think he was. his first speaking role after Richard Hunt died was VMMCM right?

I wonder exactly which Muppets will be introduced back into prominence. I mean, there are a LOT, a lot a lot a lot. We heard from the Muppet Wiki article that Kermit, Fozzie, Sam and Piggy (I think that info was from The Muppet NewsFlash) will be there. With Dave working on it we can assume Gonzo and Bunsen at least, and will Bill definitely Pepe and probably the roles he assumed for Red & Green Christmas... What do you guys think?

Reading this page had gotten my completely psyched up again! I hope to goodness that this sees the light of day, and that it's good as I hope it is!

It will be glorious to hear (and see, unlike on the CD) the voiceless or few word characters become an integral part of the Muppet gang again.

Actually... Me thinks Scooter had a single line, spoken by Adam (Richard's brother) when selling T-shirts at Cape Doom near the end of MFS.
