The Return of "Muppet What-Ifs?"

[minor muppetz]

What if Fraggle Rock, Muppet Babies, and Little Muppet Monsters all had their own seperate clip montages in The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years, instead of just being put together in one montage of childrens programming from the Muppets?
What if the Mupet Babies theme song was included in the Muppet Babies portion of that montage, as opposed to "I'm Gonna Always Love You?"
What if The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years featured clips from Muppet Babies and Little Muppet Monsters, outside of that montage?
What if more Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock clips were included?
What if The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years featured clips from some UK spots?
What if The Mupets: A Celebration of 30 Years included clips with the first season Fozzie and Gonzo puppets?

Until now I didn't think about the fact that the guest star montage didn't feature any season five cold openings, as well as the fact that the guest star montage didn't include any talk spots or panel discussion sketches.

• anything with the Two-Headed Monster
• I Whistle a Happy Tune (The Muppet Show version)

• any clips from The Great Santa Claus Switch (though I'm mostly thinking that shot where the frackels say their names, plus somethign with Thig and Thog)
• any clips of Splurge
• Lulu's Back in Town
• Cookie Monster eating Kermit's W
• Cookie Monster finishing off Susan and Gordon's car
