    Real Fozzie Bear Fans

    During the Ethel Merman episode, Fozzie tells the audience he only wants to see "REAL Fozzie Bear fans in the audience" before turning his back on them, and you can see the audience is slightly confused as what to do. He turns around, only to see that Statler and Waldorf are the only people...

    Nigel, Floyd and Sam

    Here's something I feel could use some debate; In "Sex and Violence", Nigel, Floyd and Sam all seem to get along perfectly well, but at some point their relationship seems to become less personal and more professional. And sometimes right-down insulting. Examples; Floyd mentions that Nigel...

    Eyes of the Koozbanian Creature

    Eyes of the Female Koozbanian Creature This is something that has been on my mind for as long as I can remember. Were her eyes positioned backwards on her head or did she have a mechanism or something? It just seems when the camera focuses on her before her mating ritual, her eyes have a lot in...

    Gonzo's Observation

    After the first number in the "Charles Aznavour", Gonzo tells Kermit "I...I noticed I haven't been in the last couple of shows". Hadn't he appeared in the final number of the Paul Williams episode? That always bothered me and I would consider it to be a goof on the writers' parts.

    Energized Gonzo

    I was watching the 3rd disk of TMS Season 1 yesterday and noticed Gonzo became a bit more energetic in "Ben Vereen" and also in the episodes following "Vincent Pryce", not counting "Twiggy". I think the praise he'd long desired from the audience gave him confidence in himself as an actor, which...

    Gunge and Philo's race

    Anyone ever wonder just WHAT sort of rat species Philo and Gunge are meant to be? Whatever they are, their kind either come from swamps or stay close to Gorgs so they can steal spare food, right?

    Thoughts on Convincing John

    Since I've done one on Cantus, I figured another on Jim's other recurring character would be good. Compared to Cantus, who seems to be as wise and mature as he looks, Convincing John is all flash and no substance, looking as though he were struck by lightning, which may be possibly, as when...

    Thoughts on Cantus

    Personally, I think Cantus comes off as the most mature of his kind. He knows how to enjoy himself, but also knows that there's a time and place to be silly and frivilous. He may also be aware of how confusing others find him and uses it to his advantage when saying there are only 5 Minstrels as...

    Lenny without his teeth

    Is it me, or did the Rich Little episode seem to be the only time Lenny the Lizard appeared without his pointed teeth? I saw a picture of him during the "Incworm" sketch and didn't see his teeth at all. Personaly, I think he looked better without his teeth.

    Foodchain Irony in Inchworm?

    Did anyone think the Inchworm sketch was ironic? Here is an insectivorial animal (first it was a frog, then a lizard) sitting on a wall and minding his own bussiness when a little worm taps him and gets eaten. After it happens again, the worm turns out to be the nose a monster who is either...

    Cluk-itis!

    I remember as soon as a few penguins came offstage after "Alabama Bound" one of them sneezed and became a chicken. I forget just who explained why a simple sneeze had such an effect, but I remember I was shocked, and a bit unnerved, whenever a regular character became a hen after an explosion...

    Monsters made for guest stars

    There is no doubt some monsters on the show were made so they could perform with the guest star, some even themed after the person. But there are only two examples I can think of... Uncle Deadly: Some people once questioned if he was based on Vincent Price, and indeed, their attire is similar...

    "Clean Cut Kids"

    Just how did the Canteen scene in the Alice Cooper episode go? I keep picturing Fozzie one moment with a group of Whatnot kids, the next, the kids transforming into monsters (maybe the Vile Bunch, Alice's band) and ganging up on him to scare him and either laughing afer he runs or towering over him.

    Alien Scat

    Just Which creature made which sound during Avery's closing number when he was on TMS? Here's what I could pick up, correct me if I'm wront. Shaky: "Goom", or some sort of gulping sound. Baby Koozbainians: "(Weedle)"? Male Koozbainian Creature: Went "Woo!" in the opening credits, then...

    Droop's Shirt

    When Droop first appeared on "The Muppet Valentine Show" he seems to be wearing a light purple sweater-vest that possibly inspired the purple tuxedos for TMS, but whenever he appeared after that, his only attire was his fur. I sort of thought it made him stand out more from the other monsters...

    Shaky and the "What Now My Love?" Back-Up Singers

    Is it possible that Shaky and the "monsters" that transform during Piggy's solo number are the same kind of monster? They have fur in the right places. I've seen the Candice Bergen episode and noticed that their design is similar.

    The Effect "Under My Skin" Had On Shaky

    I was interested in the "Under My Skin" sketch and the backstage scenes. Although Shaky acts like a small ham while popping his head in and out of view of Behemoth's mouth, the two backstage scenes he's in imply he was scared speechless (though did it almost seem as if he'd been looking...

    Sex and Violence Birds in MTI

    Just this afternoon the thought came to me that the birds from Sex and Violence should have been in the openining song for Muppet Treasure Island. Which ones could have been in it, where and when could they have appeared and which lines could they have sung?

    Gonzo and Fozzie's relationship

    These two seem to be a good pairing of characters performed by Dave and Frank and seem to mix well together. They often inadverantly seem to team up to cause Kermit some frustration with their silly behavior and in my opinion, Fozzie was probably meant to have more of a friend relationship in...

    Poor Bean

    Anyone else feel sorry that Bean often became victim to violence in "Muppets from space" and on "Muppets Tonight"?
