*lol* I think all of us have actually, but there is still a lot to talk about IMHO

Hmmm

Wow you all have really got me beat... I didn't like Muppet Babies as much as I like the Muppet show. And what was the deal with Nanny? All you saw was that woman's legs.

I hardly ever saw the Muppet Show when I was little so Muppet Babies means more to me. I think the point of Nanny was the same as why they never showed adults in Peanuts, it is the babies world and showing her face might have taken too much of the spotlight off of them. Her face really wasn't important to the series and so she was never given one at all...

I also think it was much easier to animate Nanny with out a face.

LOL, yeah I understand... As a child it used to drive me crazy though. The muppet show ended before I was old enough to watch it, but they had reruns on this UHF channel in Baltimore. I used to get up early and watch it whenever I could.

You know... I wonder if the same baby-perspective POV explaining why Nanny's head was never seen also applied and held true for Doc in the FR animated series. Oh well...

 

[Grundgetta2800]

Which one was DOC?

 

[The Count]

In FR, Doc is the human or silly creature as Fraggles call us. In the animated series he was seen only from the neck down, just like Nanny. Hope this helps.

I think so..to them humans weren't really important yet I guess...
