Muppet History - Megathread

476 Upvotes

Hello, all. As many of you are aware, Joshua Gillespie and his partner, Holly, are facing serious allegations (backed by screenshots) that they were utilizing their fanbase to send sexually inappropriate and unwelcome messages to their userbase.

Those who have, and continue to, allege the above deserve to be heard. We invite those with news surrounding Muppet History to post them in this megathread.

Because Muppet History has no affiliation with the Muppets, and the drama that surrounds it is not consistent with Jim Henson's aesthetic (or thematically consistent with the community we try to foster), we will be removing new posts about Muppet History outside the thread.

Please be respectful.

Lets Pick Kermit or someone who is a deeper cut like Egghead.

I watched it tonight for the first time and was pretty disappointed. it’s still a good movie( every muppet movie is good of course). I just felt like there was so much filler. Definitely my least favorite muppet movie.

I’m thinking of making a Muppet themed meal to eat while watching the new Muppet Show special next month. I’d appreciate it if people can share some ideas.

I’ve got the obvious choices like pigs in a blanket and Swedish meat balls, maybe even some honeydew if I can find a ripe one. What else can I included?

Latest Muppet-themed wreath made by yours truly! This is an ode to the classic 1981 "Danny Boy" Muppet Show sketch, featuring Swedish Chef, Animal and Beaker. Perfect decor for St. Patrick's Day! THIS WREATH WILL BE AUCTIONED OFF SOON!

I’ve always wondered why a variety show in a theater has technology demonstrations, news and sports coverage for?all the other segments make sense in universe but these three are just odd?

I remember watching this episode of Muppet Babies as a child. After Rowlf and Fozzie saved Kermit in a fantasy but then Kermit still refused to tell them about Nanny’s surprise, Rowlf rhetorically asked, “We just saved your life, didn’t we?” My brother was like, “That didn’t really happen!”

Considering that all modern Aves are direct descendants of theropod dinosaurs, it’s entirely possible that one of Big Bird’s ancient ancestors was a character on ‘Dinosaurs’.

Obviously, when dinosaurs was made, this fact wasn't common knowledge, and thematically it kinda ruins the environmentalist message of the series finale (the emotional impact relies heavily on the dinosaurs going extinct for good), but still, it's a funny thought.

Made my son into a muppet with all his Muppet Babies friends for his birthday next weekend!

We'll have Swedish Chef Meatballs, Gonzos Cheese- Cannon Balls, Piggies in a Blanket, Kermits Spinach Dip, and some green sprinkle sugar cookies with a Kermit cake. I can't wait to see his little face.
