    The Foam Book & Videos

    I just bought the foam book and respective videos. I rather like it, but was a little disappointed that both videos had the same footage for most of the time. I understand that the production costs are cheaper and that much of the construction is the same. But it would've been nice to do a...

    Looking for Gum Shoe music

    Maybe someone can help me. I don't know why I'm asking here. I figure somebody might see this and help me out. I'm doing a skit, playing a private eye. I'm looking for some sax music on Kazaa that has that kind of lonely jazz gumshoe flavor. Problem is, I don't have any idea how to...

    Kermit on Hannity and Combes

    I just caught Kermit on Hannity and Combes on Fox News. I didn't hear most of it, because my dad was talking. But this part was pretty funny... Before Kermit came on to promote the new Christmas movie, there was a PETA guy trying to promote a Turkey free Thanksgiving by eating some Tofu...

    The Best Compliment I Ever Received...

    Hey, you all are becoming a family of sorts to me, and I wanted to share something really cool that happened to me today. I received the greatest compliment I could receive. A lady from my church stopped by my house today. She asked me to pray about something. She's re-writing her will...

    Why the Wizaord of Oz?

    Does anyone know why the Wizard of Oz is referenced so many times in KSY? I thought the "Ever since I saw the Wizard of Oz, I wanted to be a scientist" bit was kind of cute, but doesn't a running gag have to be funny? I've watched KSY several times, and that part has me baffled every...

    Puppet voices

    I find that alot of my puppet voices tend to be imitations of Muppets. It's frustrating to know that I have an Ernie voice, a Grover/Yoda Voice, a Walorf voice, Sweetums Voice. The characters themselves are completely different. But whenever I do my Schmutz character, people say, "You do a...

    Swamp Years thoughts

    I just got KSY this weekend and while I agree that 1) The "I believe in you" moments were too frequent and felt kinda contrived... 2) It wasn't as funny as previous Muppet movies I did make some observations that I wanted to bring up. Forgive me if this is old hat. First, all the...

    Starting a Puppet Team

    I'm excited to announce that I'm starting a puppet team this fall among some of the folks in my church. We are "Armed and Dangerous." Does anyone else here belong to such a team, or lead one? If anyone has any wisdom and advice, who have been down this road before, I'm happy to take it...

    Muppet Storyline Continuity

    What's the rule of thumb regarding Muppet continuity. This is probably old hat, but I wasn't in on the discussion. Reason for asking. I watched MTM with some friends last Saturday and the debate arose afterwards whether Kermit and Piggie are really married. I contend that MTM was a...

    What Bugs Me About Muppets Tonight

    I always feel like I'm at a disadvantage when the discussion is about Muppets Tonight. *mild self pity party* Do you know I only saw one episode even though I was continually looking for the show? I was a ready made show but could never figure out the time slot that MT was in. So when you...

    What if they had a Muppet Network?

    I stopped by my parent's one day and my mom was watching the Game Show Channel. I couldn't believe it. Today I was thinking they have a History Channel, a Cooking Channel, a Fashion Channel, even a home decorating channel. What if they had a Muppet Network? Wouldn't that be awesome? All...

    Three Leprachauns

    Can anyone tell me where I can see the 3 Leprachaun skit featuring the singing trio of Beaker, Swedish Chef and Animal? I asked before but it got lost deep in another thread. As far as I can see, it's not on any of the muppet show DVD's. Now I forgot the name of the guest star for that...

    If you like the Muppet Movie, you'll love...

    Yesterday I was at Target and saw the Muppet Movie for just under fifteen bucks (before sales tax). How could I pass it up. I only just got a DVD player cuz it was on my laptop. My little brother and I laughed and laughed watching it. And the Muppetisms are great, now that I finally know...
