How do you think I have nearly 4 gigs worth of Muppet/Sesame/Fraggle clips and specials? :wink: Check out Sesame Workshop's official youtube channel, they have a bajillion clips and episodes up...its insane.

I just finished downloading all the "Henson Alternative" brand stuff on youtube and elsewhere; like PuppetUp, Del, etc.

3 million views on youtube!

I'm hoping it can get to the 25 million mark in the next few months:smile: I encourage everyone to leave comments on youtube and elsewhere online with the forum.muppetcentral.com, muppetnewsflash and muppet mindset urls.

I say we take this wave and ride it as far as it will go!

Ah sweet Muppety goodness

Honestly, this is the BEST single greatest piece the Muppets have done in some time.
I'd like to echo what DrTooth said a few pages back. This is one of the most awesome things I have seen from the Muppets in a while.
This video feels like the most important Muppet development since May 1990. Universally lauded, internationally crazy-popular, caters to all ages and all levels of Muppet-fandom-ness...and pretty darn entertaining. As skeptical as some of us may have been with having the Muppets in Disney's hands, you gotta give them credit.

The very last moments, with Kermit doing that jaw/teeth grinding thing, then saying "sheesh", was reminiscent of the classic exasperated Kermit of yore, and Piggy made me laugh out loud for the first time in many years.

Also loved...
..."does anyone know if there is a part for MEEEEEE"
...the eyebrow acrobatics of Johnny Fiama
...how the chickens at the beginning are looking above the camera, and how their wings are all jittery at the "emotional" parts
...Animal, when he raises his arms with drumsticks in hand (during "momma...!"), preparing to play.
...Beuregard (sp?) saying "will not let you joke"
...The entire "oooh...oh yeah...oh yeah" part, particularly the manamanas.
...Bean Bunny! the Beaker/Bobo exchange, Carl the Big Mean Bunny! Swedish Chef bork-ing "Mamma Mia", Electric Mayhem! the really cool monster-chorus that sings "thunderbolt and lightening" line, and the penguin-harmony thing.



Wonderful wonderful wonderful.

I didn't see Bean Bunny. I don't think he was in this one.

Anyway, this video was just epic! Hopefully, the movie will be like this.

Is it just me or does Sam look like he did during the first season? And what's with the new Gonzo puppet? His eyes look kind of weird.

I was just coming on to say the same thing about Bean. I've watched it 4 times now and can't see him. Just wondering if maybe some people have gotten him confused with the white rabbit in the "very very frightening me" bit.

Sam does look like the old one. I remember reading somewhere that they were redesigning the puppets to look more like the originals, and i think that's maybe why Gonzo looks a bit off too. But i think I'll grow to like these new versions.

Also is it just me or have the chickens got bigger beaks than they used to have?
