    Cookie Monster on The Colbert Report

    I haven't watched Colbert in a while, but I know they used to do tosses from the Daily Show to the Colbert Report. In one of the tosses, Colbert described his show as an episode of the Muppet Show, including a segment from their Scandanavian chef and Gonzo blowing his horn. They cut back to...

    Muppet Reference on The Colbert Report

    If anybody watches The Daily Show or Colbert Report on Comedy Central, there was a Muppet Show reference. At the end of The Daily Show, they toss over to Colbert by having Jon ask Stephen what will be coming up on his show. Last night, Colbert promised a report on the feasibility of space...

    Gorgs, Silly Creatures, and Where They Live

    I was watching some of Season 1 today and a question that I had long forgotten was rekindled. We know that the Fraggles are subterranean creatures living somewhere between outer space and the Gorg World. However, where do the Gorgs and Humans live in relation to each other? Would it be...

    Your Thoughts: TMS Season 1 DVD

    First of all, I just have to say that I'm loving this set. It's really bringing me back to the days of waking up half an hour early on school days to watch the episodes on cable at 6am before having to get ready. :sleep: One tiny little thing that struck me as weird, though. Not bad, just...

    Rumor: The Muppet Wizard of Oz

    If you are referring to "The Boy from Oz" with Hugh Jackman, this isn't about the Wizard of Oz, but about a guy from Australia. Of course, there could be another Oz project that I'm just not aware of. Chicagogonzo

    Kermit Parody on Saturday Night Live

    While I certainly agree with freedom of speech and find parody/satire extremely entertaining, I'm not sure if I enjoy the atmospere that this law creates. If I understand it correctly (which I'm in no way claiming), it seems that I can use any images, sounds, characters, etc. without permission...

    Kermit Parody on Saturday Night Live

    First time poster here, and I'm getting sleepy so I hope that it makes sense. I just watched the SNL ep a couple of hours ago and I have to say that I am a little upset. Not so much that they made fun of Kermit (SNL does that to everybody). I'm upset because before the ghetto Kermit popped up...
