    Boober's Nerves

    This was a running gag I used in "Muppet Show" outlines for a LONG time. I figured I should restate how it all began. Basically, the running gag was much like Crazy Harry's. Whenever a Muppet said 'nerve' or 'nerves', whether Boober was in earshot or not, he'd immediately pop up and scream "MY...

    More Stuff You Might Have Missed!

    ALICE COOPER: During the song "Once-A-Year Day!", it's unclear as to who is performing Thog, since Jerry Nelson is performing one of the two monsters singing lead. As I mentioned before, Kermit makes a reference to the Julie Andrews episode in this one. Before Miss Piggy is transformed...

    New Fanfic: New Mr. Hooper In Town!

    This is just an idea I've tossed about for a while. It would be done in classic Sesame Street style, in which Mr. Hooper's grandson, Max, buys back Hooper's Store from Alan. Max brings the store back to the 70's look, and puts up a Help Wanted sign...and no sooner does he do that, Scooter shows...

    Miss Piggy's age

    Just out of curiosity, how old do you think Miss Piggy REALLY is? This stems from a bit I came up with where the Muppets put on a production of "Annie", with Prairie Dawn as Annie, Kermit as Daddy Warbucks, and Miss Piggy as Miss Hannigan. (Yes, I know ol' Bunsen "Chrome Dome" Honeydew looks...

    The One Thing Forgetful Jones Remembers

    (This was a bit I was using in one of my TMS outlines, this one with Al Martino as the guest star and Forgetful Jones making an appearance as Scooter tried to help him get a job at the theatre, but nothing works out. He ends up as the patient on "Veterinarian's Hospital". After the jokes about...

    The Letter People Visit The Muppet Show!

    Now THIS is an idea I've been tossing around for the better part of a year and a half. Since several people who worked on "The Letter People" ended up working for the Henson company (Allan Trautman in particular comes to mind), I decided to finally have the "Not-Ready-for-a-Henson-Production...
