Yeah, I love the Muppets too! My favorite Muppets are the Swedish Chef, Sam the Eagle, and of course, Kermit. I love the movies, I actually just baught The Muppets Take Manhattan. I also really loved the Muppet Babies, that cartoon was great!

that would be sweet if they released the Muppet Show as seasons, instead of the "best of" specials they have on vhs.

The star Wars related episodes of Muppet Babies are one of my favorite ones, but it's been years since I've seen them. One of my childhood favorite TV shows.

Kermie is hot!!! :lol: :evilgrin:

Did anybody see "Muppets Wizard of Oz"??? Piggy played all 4 witches and the Wicked Witch was married to Muppet lounge singer Johnny Fiama! :o

Mahna mahna! Doo doooo doo doo doo! Mahna mahna! Doo doo doo doooo!

A Muppet Babies reference has recently weaseled it way into my every day life: I call my tea strainer an "Intergalactic Cheeseburger Maker" thanks to Gonzo. And I frequently confront hula dancers with "Hula... is coola."

I miss the Muppets. Hell, we all know what Gonzo was doing with that Chicken, and the point was it was obvious. Jim Henson had a sense of humor and good puppet humor was a rare thing back then (still is). I miss the Mupper Show, but now that Disney owns them we can be assured that they will stick to commercials and family humor. Damn you Disney. *sigh*

Anyway, that Star Wars episode will always remain in my Star Wars Video collection. Priceless.

What exactly happened in that ep? I was three or four when I watched it and I have only vague memories of it. I'm pretty sure Han and Chewie were in it.

That was with Sandra Bullock, right?

It has been ages since I last saw anything Muppets-related, but I remember I enjoyed that show like nothing else.

And the fact that Gonzo and Camilla made love in the Disney World laundrymat didn't phase ya any?? I was 9...that was not something I wanted to see or hear.... :o

In case you're wondering what Im refering to... back around 1989 there was this special in which the muppets go to Disney world to meet Kermit's good friend Mickey Mouse. :roll:

Gonzo and Camilla did a little exploring of their own and ended up in the laundrymatt where Gonzo proceeded to sing to Camilla about how much fun it would be to make love in a laundrymatt... seriously...this was NOT for kids.....at the end of the song they dive into this pile of clothes and the next thing you hear is Camilla screaming Gonzo's name..... :o

In "Muppets Wizard of Oz" the Piggy/Kermit love plot was taken way out and put in a cameo role (the Scarecrow drools over the good witch Glenda in the end). The main subplot (sides Dorothy wanting to get home and become a singing sensation...) was Gonzo as the tin woodsman.... He was an ordinary fellow working for the Wicked witch till one day he asked for a raise and she turned him into a cyborg without a heart and without a heart he couldn't love Camilla anymore. So he wanted the wizard (Jeffry Tambor *lmao*) to give him a heart so he could love Camilla again. I actually felt sorry for Gonzo....

As for the Muppet Babies ep (and BTW... in Muppet Babies Camilla was a plush chick....I kinda thought that was odd) that features Star Wars.... well Dr. Who (Bensen and Beaker in a time traveling phone booth) was also in the ep as well as Star Trek..... best crossover ep ever.....

The Doctor showed up at Dogoba (Gonzolo and Fozbacca!) and take the SW characters to the Enterprise run by Capt. Kirkmet....but it was the Enterprise D so Rowlf played Mr. Woof... :lol:

The only Muppets things I've seen are "Muppets Up Late", "A Muppets Chrismas Charol" and "Muppets Treasure Island". I once saw "Muppets in Manhatten, but that was, what, twelve years ago :roll:

The only Muppet that confused me was that big furry thing that seemed like the resident Serial killer.

He scared the crap outta me when i was like 4

Ahh the Muppets I used to watch the Muppet Show VHS my dad gave to me all the time.My favorite Muppet was always Kermit the frog though no offense in all but I didn't really understand the relationship between Kermit and Miss Piggie.Did you know without the Muppets we wouldn't have Yoda or the 1st & 2nd TMNT movie costumes?

LOL, me too! That sounds so funny! The Muppets had tons of adult humor in them since the beginning from what I've heard. I'll find out when I start buying all the dvds.

I love all the movies, even the recent made for tv ones :D .

My favorites are The Muppet Movie, Muppets Treasure Island, and Muppets from Space. I love all the other films too, those were my personal favs!

A lot of people didn't like The Space one though, I could never understand that. It made me love Gonzo even more and feel bad for his character, I hope we see more films like it. The Mupptes will never die! :D

Heh.

If I remember correctly, I think only Luke, R2D2, and C-3PO were in that one.

I remember Muppet Babies had an episode where the babies made a home video version of star wars, I'm pretty sure Gonzo was vader, Piggy was the Princess, and Kermit was Luke.

I thought I saw a pic some where of Kermit in Luke's clothes with a lightsaber *goes off to look for pics*, I can't download that clip from the link because my computer's a brat. I'm sure it's on dvd somewhere!

Yes Kermit and Piggy were Luke and Leia, But Gonzo was Han not Vader. Vader was Animal.

Waiiit a second.... So if Piggy and Kermit were Leia and Han and Animal was Darth Vader.... uh.... what the shell was Padme??? Some freaked out Pig Frog thing?! Piggy and Kermit being brother and sister is just gross... :o

I remember the Muppet Show ep that featured Mark Hamill... It was an ep of Pigs In Space using Star Wars characters...

I wish the clip still worked, I can hardly remember what happened, but it wasn't as bad as the "Star Wars Holiday Special". :o

As for the Muppets, I never watched the Muppet show, but I was a regular watcher of Muppet Babies, I liked there spoofes and jokes of popular movies and Tv.

kermit was my favourite of the muppets show, but the funniest muppet movie i ever seen is "meet the feebles" by peter jackson.

the parodi of kermit with a frog who is addicted to drugs, a rabbit with aids or he thinks so, a disgusting little fly who eat ****, lives in a toilet, and is a journalist/reporter and also likes to find up stories by himself, the hippo girl when she goes berserk kinda like terminator in the police station she goes nuts with an mahine gun at the end of the movies and kills almost everything that moves, the whaleross hes like a pimp or a gangster and he is a bad guy cheating with a little cat lady and get caught two times by his hippo lady not good not good at all mr bleach, the gangster rat who likes to do his own private dirty porno movies in the basement, the elephant sidney who is father to a half elephant half chicken child but he means that the little baby does not look like him at all.

i love this puppet crazy movie peter jackson did good job at this one, and still stands as one of the best movies from the 80s with badtaste also from peter jackson.
