Yeah we like to discuss that cute sort of stuff around here every now and then. Not too much because it's a Richard thread, but you know. Lol :wink:

Oh, yes - let us not risk the wrath of the dearly departed by making this a cute thread.

I did hear "Trashcan Tango," and it certainly sounds like Richard had fun doing that one. He's up there, playing a gruff, gravel-voiced grouch with a New York accent...but I'll bet he had a bad case of laryngitis after doing that sketch. I mean, doing a rough voice like that, when his real voice is closer to Scooter's, can't be too good for the vocal cords, can it?

Yeah, did you ever wonder if having Beaker perform "Feelings" did any damage? It does sound like he's straining at times, lol.

(Incidentally, this is one of the most frequently posted Muppet clips Lol)

Well... It's not so much a fanfic on Puppetman itself... It's more of a matter that my mind sort of rolled along, tieing a few possibilities here and there, of maybe Gertha being explained to be Uncle Deadly's sister and Cinders his real niece. Got that and the one involving a gofer, blue Whatnot girl Muppet (with permission from her roomie of course) and this club's president... Even have a suitable title already selected as well.

Hmm, Uncle Deadly being Gertha's brother...now that you mention it, that's actually not too far-fetched. Sure, their senses of humor are a little different - Deadly is fond of swooping dramatics and Gertha just dives right in with a razor-sharp remark - but one could see them as brother and sister.

And this blue Whatnot girl Muppet - would I happen to know her name? :wink:

Nice avatar, heralde!

Hehe thanks, I thought it was appropriate since Season 3's coming out this week. And I waited for ages to get to see Beige Fraggle when Season 2 was coming out, lol.

Yeah... Maybe you do. Ora maybe you, um, do. Again, only with your permission of corpse.

BTW: Muppetcast Episode 22 has another good RHLC song towards the end, one of your other roomies Erin.

Thanks Count, always loved that song! Even though The Wizard is a bit of a jerk, his song has a nice message. That you don't believe in something just because someone told you told to or just because the story's old. :smile:

I managed to find a copy of Muppet VHS Gonzo Presents Weird Stuff recently. The plot is that Gonzo's showing us old Muppet clips, while trying to make us believe he's living in a fancy mansion, but it's really a trailer with a very angry landlord. We get to hear the voice of the landlord at one point. Three guess who belongs to this very distinctive voice :wink:

Gonzo: Uh yes?

LL: Yo, buzzard beak, where's my rent money? !

G: Uh it's the Gardner, heh heh!

LL: Look you turkey face you've been parking your trailer on my lawn for three months! Now PAY UP!

G: Well listen I think you can put the rose buses right over there...

LL: What are you talking about? !

G: Uh, good idea, I like to watch Julie Andrews too!
