The Muppet Fan Teens' Muppet Fan Inc.

  Hello, guys! It is me, The Muppet Fan and I haven't posted in like a gazillion thousand million billion gazillion years. But, I have an important thing to talk to you about: Muppet Fan Inc.
 As some of you may know, my son created a blog with his friend called The Muppet Fan Teens and over at that blog, they have created a new YouTube series that is called Muppet Fan Inc. Muppet Fan Inc. is about 2 people named Patrick and Ryan that start a company called Muppet Fan Inc. And when a person named Jack, a life-long Muppet fan, wants to apply, he gets the job. After Patrick fires Ryan, Patrick's boss Evan needs to come to sort things out. And, through a serenade of The Lion Sleeps Tonight, things get slightly back to normal (even though this office was never normal).
 I'm a horrible person at writing descriptions, so just watch the video so that you'll know what the heck I'm talking about.
 Now, enough about me. Why don't you just watch the video already? Here, I'll give you some help: I'll put the video right below this sentence.

the muppets. ( TV SHOW!!)

 Hello, Muppet fans! Today I'm coming to you through my new computer because my old computer broke so we had to get a new one.
 But, today we're going to talk about something..... Something...... Ohh! The new Muppets pilot!
 So, I'm sure that most of you know about the brand-new Muppet TV show that's premiering on ABC next month!!! Now, us Muppet fans took this news by total surprise, because this is one of the first good things that Disney has done ever since buying The Muppets!!!
 They obviously made a test reel to show ABC why The Muppets should be in a new primetime-show. It received a standing ovation, which led to it being shown at Comic Con, which led it to being posted onto YouTube.
 And, let me just say, it is awesome. And, other people sure like watching it too, because now it's at 1 MILLION views!! Take a look at some of the comments. Most of them (if they're not by YouTube trolls) are by truly dedicated Muppet fans.
 Now, I don't really want to give any spoilers out, but if you haven't seen it yet, I highly highly highly recommend it. So, what are you waiting for? Go watch the new Muppet show!!!!!

The Best Scene of Muppets Tonight Ever

 Muppets Tonight was a show that ran for 2 seasons and alternated between airing on ABC and Disney Channel. Today, I am going to show you my favorite scenes of the show and my thoughts on it:

 Here is Rick Moranis singing " High Hopes", only to have Seymour crush the ant Rick is talking about. This scene is hilarious, and one of the best moments of Muppets Tonight because after Seymour crushes the ant, a tiny little ant ambulance comes out to rescue the ant, and Rick Moranis has the best " WHAT IS GOING ON?" look ever in the history of Muppets. Pepe is also in this scene and when you have Pepe, Seymour, and Rick Moranis in a scene, you know the results are going to be hilarious.

 Pepe and Seymour are just singing a song, where they get to a joke that no one can get. At all. They have to explain it, up until the closing credits. Yeah, it takes that long. And, the audience can still never register it. It's kind of sad.. But, this is a moment where Pepe and Seymour are just being plain hilarious. It's interesting to note that most of the best Muppets Tonight moments occur when Pepe and Seymour are teamed together.

 And, that's pretty much the only best moments. Sure, Muppets Tonight had its times but for the most part it was a pretty weak show. If you want to see some more best moments, I highly recommend watching the clip show that Muppets Tonight made. It highlights some of the best moments of Muppets Tonight, including these two that I have just mentioned.
 Y'know what I should do someday? I should do a review for all of the episodes of Muppets Tonight. AH, but those are posts for another day. Okay, so for today, I'm probably out unless I post another thing today, which could possibly happen.

 FROZEN IS ALREADY TAKING OVER THE WORLD!!! WHY DOES IT NEED TO TAKE OVER DISNEY WORLD AND DISNEYLAND?? MUPPET FAN OUT! I'LL TALK EITHER LATER TODAY OR TOMORROW. BYE!

Muppet-Vision-3-D may be taken away in Florida too?

 I AM SO MAD RIGHT NOW. HELLO, FELLOW AMERICANS. IT IS ME, THE MUPPET FAN, BACK AFTER A REALLY LONG WHILE OF A BREAK. THIS WHOLE ARTICLE NEEDS TO BE WRITTEN IN CAPS LOCK BECAUSE I AM SO MADDDDDDDD.
 Y'KNOW HOW THEY TOOK AWAY MUPPET-VISION-3-D  IN CALIFORNIA TO MAKE WAY FOR A STUPID FROZEN SHOW??? WELL, THEY'RE PROBABLY GOING TO DO IT IN FLORIDA TOO. WHHHHYYYYY?????????? WHY DOES DISNEY HATE MUPPET FANS????
 WWWWWWHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYY? Y'KNOW WHAT? I CAN'T EVEN.. GOOD DAY. MORE NEWS ABOUT THIS ANOTHER DAY. OR MAYBE NOT.
 OUR FRIENDS OVER AT TOUGHPIGS SAID THAT DISNEY IS CHANGING HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS TO HOLLYWOOD ADVENTURE. FIRST OF ALL, THAT'S A STUPID NAME. AND, SECOND OF ALL, WWWWWWHHHHHHHHYYYYYYY??????????
 DISNEY IS SPENDING 3,000,000,000 DOLLARS TO BUILD A "LARGER PRESENCE" FOR PIXAR, STAR WARS, AND INDIANA JONES.
 ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES JUST INFORMED ME, " OH! THOSE ARE ALL SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE MUPPETS!!!!!!!!" YEAH, RIGHT!!!!! I MEAN, FIRST OF ALL, THEY WOULD ALSO BE TAKING AWAY OTHER RIDES THAT PEOPLE CARE ABOUT.
 AND, SECOND OF ALL, WITH THE NEW MUPPET SHOW COMING OUT IN SEPTEMBER, YOU'D THINK THAT THEY'D WANT TO ADVERTISE AND TRY TO CAPITALIZE ON THE MUPPETS' FAME AND SUCCESS. BUT, FOR SOME REASON, DISNEY DOES NOT SEEM TO LIKE THE MUPPETS.
 HOW DO I KNOW THIS? WELL, SEASONS 1,2, AND 3 OF THE MUPPET SHOW WERE ALL RELEASED, AND THEN DISNEY JUST STOPPED. THEN, WE NEVER HEARD ANY NEWS EVER OF SEASONS 4 AND 5 BEING RELEASED.
 WHHHHHHYYYYYYY?????????????????????????????????? WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO TAKE AWAY THE LAST PROJECT THAT JIM HENSON EVER MADE? THAT'S JUST DISRESPECTFUL TO NOT ONLY MILLIOINS AND MILLIONS OF MUPPET FANS ACROSS THE WORLD, BUT IT'S DISRESPECTFUL TO JIM HENSON HIMSELF.
 DISNEY, THINK ABOUT ALL THE HARD WORK GONE INTO THIS PROJECT. YOU'RE PUTTING IT ALL TO WASTE. WWWWWAAAAASSSSSTTTTTTEEEEEE!!!!!!!!
 Sorry, there. I got angry. I just don't understand, though, why Disney would want to do this. And, now, I'm angry again.
 Y'KNOW HOW I WAS TALKING ABOUT TOUGHPIGS? WELL, A MEMBER OF THEIR FORUM SAID, " NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" WHAT DOES THAT TELL US? THAT DISNEY IS BUMMING OUT MUPPET FANS PRETTY HARD.
 So, in conclusion, I'd like to ask Disney, " WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?????"
 Okay, Muppet Fan out. I'll post hopefully in a few days. WHY, DISNEY? WHY?

Some important Muppet news

 Miranda Lambert is Gonzo, Justin Timberlake is Animal, and Carly Rae Jepsen is Miss Piggy. Have a nice day!

Muppet interstitial show on Disney Junior 1st ( well, 4th) episode report

 I just made a horrible mistake. I was supposed to be reviewing the 1st episode of Muppet Moments, the new Disney Junior interstitial show. at 8:25. Well, I missed that and the 8:55 one because I was asleep. I woke up at 9:00 and forgot about the 9:25 show. So, now I will review the  9:55 show of Muppet Moments for you. Here is a transcript of the episode:

( Muppet Moments intro, which includes the Newsman saying " Muppet Moments" which makes me extremely happy that The Newsman is being used actually)
Girl: Can I hug you?
Rowlf: I would LOVE that!
( Boy and Fozzie hugging)
Fozzie: Hello!
( Girl and Rowlf hugging)
Rowlf: SQUISHY SQUISHY!
( Girl and Kermit hugging)
Kermit: So, right over th..
( Animal runs in, and hugs the girl)
Animal: AH!
Kermit: It's a frog sandwich!
( Boy and Pepe hugging)
Pepe: That's too tight..
Boy: I THINK I CAN FEEL YOUR RIBS!!!!
( Girl and Kermit)
Kermit: Can I get a hug?
Girl: Frogs don't get hugs!
( Kermit kisses Girl's hand)
Kermit: How's that?
( Girl smiles)

 Let's take this apart: In the opening, the Newsman just stands there lifelessly while THE DISNEY JUNIOR ANNOUNCER announces the title. Yeah, no! If you're going to have The Newsman, have him actually say something!
 This episode had a topic of Hugging.
 With Rowlf and the girl, I mean, I do like Bill Barretta, this felt a bit ankward when Rowlf said, " SQUISHY SQUISHY!" What is that supposed to mean, Bill?
 With Fozzie and the boy, it felt poignant, and touching. All Bill Barretta needs to learn is to say something cute, not " SQUISHY SQUISHY!!!'
  Then, I felt a real sense of Muppet humor. Kermit and the girl were hanging out, and Animal comes in and just goes, " AH!" It's Animal being Animal, not having to not play the drums, not in a stupid adaptation ( even though they're not stupid), it's just Animal being Animal as he hasn't been able to do in the last few years.
 The moment with the boy and Pepe made me just laugh out loud. The boy just randomly said, " I THINK I CAN FEEL YOUR RIBS!!!" which would of course be your normal reaction to Pepe hugging. It was pretty funny..
 Then, the last moment with Kermit and the girl reminded me of Sesame Street, when the girl said, " Frogs don't get hugs!"
 So, what did I like about this episode? How it was touching and introduced the Muppets to younger kids, while also reminding adults of how funny The Muppets can be.
 So, what did I not like about this episode?  No Gonzo, and how this episode DID NOT capture the feel of other Muppet productions. Plus, it's too short and is a bit babyish.
 While I recommend this show, I feel like  this is as good as it will get and I recommend watching other Muppet productions that are better than this one, unless you're a baby in which case you should definitely watch this show and you will like it. Oh, who cares? No one reads this article anyways. Well, I'll see you tomorrow hopefully!

Not really much of anything today...

 While there's not really much of well, really anything today I'm just using this to serve as a reminder that Muppet Moments, the new Muppet interstitial show will debut tomorrow, Friday April 3rd on 8:25, and rerun tomorrow also on 8:55, 9:25, and 9:55. So, stay tuned to see my review tomorrow of the show and then at the end of the series ( ending in May) I will do an overall review of the show. I doubt it'll be good because it is for babies, but I'll take a look and let you know about it.

EVEN MORE Muppet Disney Junior stuff

 As you probably know by now, The Muppets are teaming up with Disney to make an interstitial show. There's even videos of The Muppets officially at the Disney Junior headquarters!
 Once again, it still sounds a bit cute for my liking.. But, I'll still watch it to review for this website. There's a whole bunch of articles created about the whole Muppets-Disney Junior thing, so shall we look at one? ( It's from The Niagara Frontier Publications.)
 It says, " Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, Fozzie Bear and other beloved Muppets star in Disney Junior's 'Muppet Moments', a new short-form series of amusing conversations between Muppets and young kids about everyday topics such as apologies, favorite foods, and manners.
 " The series will debut on Disney Channel with four shorts premiering Friday, April 3 ( 8:25, 8:55, 9:25 and 9:55 A.M), and a new short airing daily through Friday, May 8.
 ( Hey! Didn't I tell you people that it would only run 1 season, then get cancelled marathon style? Now, back to the article.)
 " New shorts will continue to roll out throughout 2015 and also will be available on WATCH Disney Junior.
 " Nancy Kanter, executive of original programming and general manager at Disney Junior Worldwide said, ' The Muppets have been a part of nearly every family's life, and we are delighted to bring back fond memories of these iconic characters for parents, and create new ones for the youngest members of the family. Muppet Moments highlight The Muppets at what they do best: making kids and families laugh while showing compassion and heart. Our hope is that  viewers will come away seeing how funny and special The Muppets can be.'
 " Kermit the Frog added, ' In show business, they say never work with kids animals. On Muppet Moments, we break both those rules and a lot more - and the results are fun, silly, and even a little bit inspiring.'
 " In addition to Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, and Fozzie Bear, Muppet Moments will feature appearances by The Great Gonzo, Animal, Beaker, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, Rowlf, Bobo, The Newsman, Rizzo, Sam Eagle and Pepe the King Prawn.
 " For 60 years, the Muppets have captured audiences with their unique blend of heart and humor. The Muppets, created by visionary Jim Henson, are among the world's most iconic and beloved characters. Led by the world's most famous amphibian, Kermit the Frog, The Muppets have starred in eight feature films, Emmy-award winning television series and specials, Webby-award-winning online videos, as well as hundreds of press appearances worldwide."
 So, that's the article and my article for today. See you tomorrow!

More Muppet show Disney Junior thingy whatever news

 Hello, Muppet fans! The reason I'm reporting to you people today is because today we officially have more news about the interstitial show. Disney Junior will team up with the Muppets to make a brand new interstitial show on Disney Channel!
 Our first piece of news will be the day the show will be debuting: April 3rd. Everybody, get your DVRs set up for whatever show is going to be on April 3rd, just in case The Muppet show will be on someplace in between the shows.

 Well, here are the videos in which you could judge for yourself:

  For some reason, I could only find this video, and not the other 2.. Well, just enjoy ( or not enjoy) the video I posted. It isn't really that good, but who cares?

New Series called Muppet Fan Interviews!

 Hi-ho, Muppet fans! Today, I am starting a new series here on The Muppet Fan called Muppet Fan interviews, where I interview some highly dedicated Muppet fans. Today, we are going to be interviewing a guy named Ryan. So, let's get on with the questions:

The Muppet Fan: Hello, Ryan!
Ryan: Hello!
TMF: Okay, let's get straight to the questions. What Muppet feature films have you seen?
R: Okay, so I've seen the one where Walter joins ( The Muppets). I've also seen Muppets Most Wanted, and have also seen Muppets Treasure Island and The Muppets Take Manhattan. There's one more.
TMF: Who is your favorite Muppet, and why?
R: Cookie Monster, because he loves cookies. And, because he's just, like, awesome.
TMF: What Muppet Show episodes ( you can give us a description of the ones you have seen)  have you seen?
R: The ones that I've seen-- hmm, the only one I've ever seen is the first episode of The Muppet Show.
TMF: Have you ever seen any other Muppet productions besides their feature films, and Muppet Show and Sesame Street episodes?
R: Let me think.. I've seen a really funny episode of Muppets Tonight. Muppet Fan?
TMF: What?
R: " Once, there was a little ant.." CRASH!!! " Why'd you kill the ant?"
TMF: That's a great episode. What's your favorite Sesame Street moment?
R: This is really making me think. I like the dots in the first episode of Sesame Street.
TMF: I heard you have seen frogfan76.
R: Yes, I have.
TMF: What's your favorite frogfan76 moment?
R: The one where he throws his Walter plush out of the window during his morning routine.
TMF: What Muppets merchandise do you own?
R: Well, I own the first season of The Muppet Show on DVD. Uh, I own Kermit and Fozzie puppets, just because. Let me think. I probably have more stuff. I have the Muppets DVD where Walter joins. I definitely think I have more stuff. I have a Cookie Monster stuffed animal. And another Cookie Monster stuffed animal.
TMF: What's the name of that song?
R: Of what song?
TMF: What's the name of THAT song?
R: " The Rainbow Connection" by Kermit sung in The Muppet Movie, and also a lovely rendition by frogfan76.
TMF: How do you feel about Muppet-Vision-3-D closing to make a Frozen show?
R: Like, I feel like it wasn't the best Muppet thing that The Muppets have ever made. But, it's still good. And, I liked it and I think they shouldn't have closed it. They shouldn't have closed it because of Frozen. They're turning everything into Frozen now. They shouldn't call it " Disneyland," they should start calling it " Frozenland" now.
TMF: What's your favorite Muppets Tonight Muppet, and why?
R: The blue elephant, Seymour because he crushes a ant. ( referring to the Rick Moranis episode)
TMF: What's the name of that song?
R: WOULD YOU STOP ASKING ME THIS QUESTION?
TMF: What are your thoughts on my blog?
R: What do you mean?
TMF: What do you think of my blog?
R: Um, I think it feels good that you're interviewing me. And, I think that you write really good Muppet stuff on your blog.
TMF: Thank you for that comment. Do you think the original Snuffy was creepy?
R: Yes.
TMF: Why?
R: Because, he looks like he had neon yellow eyes.
TMF: How do you feel about Jim Henson dying young, at the age of 53?
R: If he was still alive, he could've walked up to the people at Disney and say, " DON'T take Muppet-Vision-3-D away!"
TMF: Are you saying we should start a protest?
R: ( laughing) I think they would say, " GET OUT!"
TMF: Good thoughts. By the way, on my blog, I recently started a petition to get Muppet-Vision back. What do you think?
R: I think it's a great idea.
TMF: We haven't gotten any signatures yet. What do you think?
R: I think if Walt Disney was still alive, he wouldn't even make Frozen. So, Muppets could still be there.
TMF: Well, I think that Frozen is very Disney-esque, except in a bad way.
R: Yes, it is.
TMF: If Jim Henson was still alive, what do you think he would've said about Muppet-Vision-3-D?
R: I think he would've said, " You're not talking my ideas away to put a stupid show in."
TMF: Just to let you know, Jim Henson never said " stupid" in his life.
R: He should've, at least once.
TMF: You know what's even more sad?
R: What?
TMF: Is that Muppet-Vision-3-D was Jim Henson's last project before he died.
R: Seriously? They should really  take Frozen away.
TMF: If I showed you a video of Muppet-Vision-3-D, what would your reactions be?
R: I've already seen it, and I think it's really funny.
TMF: If you were related to any of the Muppet performers, how would you react?
R: I would be like, " OH MY GOSH!!! CAN I HOLD THE PUPPET THAT YOU PUPPETEER?"
TMF: What's the name of that song?
R: STOP!
TMF: Do you think me or frogfan76 is the Bestest Internet Muppet Fan?
R; I would probably go with you. 'Cause frogfan76 makes his videos just to be funny.
TMF: On my blog posts, I try to be funny except usually fail..
R: ( laughing) I think that comment you just said was funny!
TMF: If Frozen was not made, would the world be a better place?
R: Yes, because Frozen is ruining Disney.
TMF: What's just sad is that I literally just heard neighbors singing Frozen.
R: It's 6:00.
TMF: That was a very random comment. Do you know who Charlie Chaplin is?
R: Nope.
TMF: ( stares at camera) You see, that's what's wrong with America. What are your thoughts toward Elmo?
R: I think Elmo should learn to say the word " I."
TMF: Do you prefer Kermit or Fozzie?
R: Kermit, because, uh, Kermit is better.
TMF: How do you feel about the constant FaceTimes that I always request for you?
R: I like that we FaceTime each other and that we are friends, because I don't get to see you in person that often. ( shows TMF his foot) Look at my foot.
TMF: Cool foot... How would you feel if you got to meet Jim Henson?
R: I would probably be like, " CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH BECAUSE YOU CREATED THE MUPPETS?? YOU PERFORMED KERMIT!"
TMF: How would you feel if I randomly started playing the piano right now?
R: This is a Muppets interview...
TMF: Whatever. Have you ever seen Muppet Babies?
R: I've seen a clip of Muppet Babies in a Muppet movie.
TMF: THAT WAS IN MUPPETS TAKE MANHATTAN, NOT THE SHOW MUPPET BABIES! Take a wild guess. Who do you think performed Gonzo the Great?
R: I DON'T KNOW! Um... Miranda Lambert?
TMF: NOOOO!!!! Y'see, average Muppet fan here. Average Muppet fan. Dave Goelz performed Gonzo the Great, not Miranda Lambert.
R: Okay!
TMF: What is your 2nd favorite Sesame Street character?
R: Uh.. Elmo.
TMF: Why?
R: Because, I like Elmo.
TMF: Fantastic explanation, Ryan.
R: People are going to think this interview was made up, even though it wasn't.
TMF: Yeah, because even people like me can't make this stuff up.
R: I probably have the biggest imagination in The United States. I'm surprised I thought of... POTATOES!
TMF: Question: do you like mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes?
R: Sweet potatoes. This is turning into a non-Muppet interview.
TMF: Just to let you know: You can't hear it through a blog, but we are cracking up right now.
R: ( laughing so much) I know. My head fell off.
TMF: People of America, don't worry: Ryan's head did not fall off. When you think of Muppets, what do you think of?
R: DRUMS!
TMF: When  you think of Muppets, you think of drums?
R: When I think of Animal, I think of drums.
TMF: WELL, I TOLD YOU TO THINK ABOUT MUPPETS!!!!
R: POTATOES!
TMF: What is it with you and potatoes?
R: I didn't even have potatoes for dinner tonight.
TMF: That was a wonderful sentence. Bravo.
R: Is the interview over?
TMF: I don't know. Do you want it to be?
R: No.
TMF: If you saw Kermit with a big head, what would you think of?
R: POTATOES!
TMF: All you can say is potatoes.
R: ( contiulously saying potatoes) I have to whisper a secret to you.
TMF: What is it?
R: Potatoes.
TMF: Hey, Ryan!
R: Yeah?
TMF: What's the name of that song?
R: ( starts singing, " POTATOES!") That's the name of that song. Can we wrap this interview up?
TMF: Sure! Bye, people! That was just THE Muppet Fan interviewing his friend Ryan, and join us tomorrow when we talk about something. Hopefully.

Even More Muppet-Vision-3-D news

Well, there's some more news on Muppet-Vision-3-D, except it's not even news. Via Instagram, I asked a fellow Muppet fan if they wanted to write on my blog. They said, " Yes!" then wrote, " I'm honestly very shocked and disappointed. As a hardcore fan, it was a destination that was on my bucket list.. guess it's not happening. Haha I say we start a petition!"
 To which I replied, " For my liking, that doesn't seem like a good idea.. I SAY WE GRAB SOME ANIMALS AND BARGE INTO DISNEY... No, I'm just kidding. A petition would be fine." So, I just started a petition. Right here. Right now.
 All you need to do is comment on this post saying your name, and I'll put down your name for the petition. I don't care if you comment as a guest, or whatever you do. I won't present it to Disney until we get 500 signatures. I hope that's enough.
 Sorry for the short post today and for the lack of posting. Just be here in 9 days when I will report my short Muppety-filled trip to New York City!

More Muppet-Vision-3-D news

  I just read the Mouse Planet Disneyland newsletter, and I was very, very appalled at what I saw.. I saw very strange photos of what used to be Muppet-Vision-3-D...... WOW.
  There's a lot of changes, that are very visible. How about we compare? Muppet-Vision-3-D against whatever the heck this Frozen show is called out. Just saying, Muppet-Vision-3-D will win..... by a lot.
  Us Muppet fans are still getting over the fact that Disney does not want Muppet-Vision-3-D to continue at California Adventure.... WOW.... I'm surprised that I even have to report this.
  Comparison of the two. Here is a comparison of the outdoor areas:



                                                                                              

I need to give the photo credit to Family Vacation Getaways at Los Angeles!

 

Let's compare? Shall we? This Muppets banner has six lovable characters, while the Frozen banner has none.. Point, Muppets. The Muppets has film strips rolling while it says Muppet-Vision-3-D, while the Frozen thing says its title on ice... I think that's a point for Muppets. The Frozen thing looks more like a palace, where The Muppets looks like a theater... That's a close call. One of my advisors has just informed me that a theater is more interesting than a palace. Okay, next photos!!!!!!



 

Yeah, so... There's a poster saying Crown Jewel Theater going against an awesome Muppets poster which also features The Muppets' autographs. The Crown Jewel theater has girl colors, while The Muppets have the Muppets' traditional colors and also blue-and-white. I think The Muppets will win this.

 

 

 Let's compare the content.. While I have not seen the Frozen show, I can almost garuntee it is not as good as The Muppet-Vision-3-D ( a.k.a 4-D). Frozen has very stupid sing-along songs, with the live stage performance. Fozzie, Kermit, Miss Piggy, and the rest of the gang are most likely better.

 

Sadly, California fans will need to say goodbye to The Muppets at Disneyland... I feel bad. There is hardly any more news to report, but I will get back to everyone about the subject.

 



 

More Muppet-Vision-3-D news

 Hi-ho, Muppet fans! Yesterday,  I commented through 4 hours of ( mostly) boring-ness to the max. Today, I finally get to type on the computer and not my stupid iPad mini that was recording useless messages. Now, today, we are going to rant a little more on the developing story of this Muppet-Vision-3-D rumor and that it could get taken away by a Frozen show.
 So far, I've written two different articles about the California rumor. We've heard from sources such as ToughPigs and The Muppet Mindset, but now let's look further into this news such as on the Disney website or Wikipedia..
 There is a home on the Disney website for For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along, which says, " Delight as Frozen springs to life in this lively retelling- packed with a flurry of songs, stories, and sing-alongs."
 Alright, what does that tell us? That tells us that this Frozen thing is definitely official, but we do not know how long it will be bumping Muppet-Vision-3-D. Let's cross our fingers not forever.
 OH, CRAP! There's the juicy stuff... Muppet-Vision-3-D IS closed as we speak with Frozen shows going on right as we speak. The Disney website notes that Muppet-Vision-3-D is being taken over to look like the Crown Jewel theater. Now, let's search on the Disneyland website for Muppet-Vision-3-D and see what it tells us... Oh, wait, there is none!
 That's right. You heard it right here! It seems as if Disneyland was anxious to get The Muppets out of their park because there is no sign of a Muppet-Vision-3-D page on the Disneyland website!!! Disneyland, therefore, might be getting rid of The Muppets forever at California!
 Our next source is Wikipedia. For its status, it says, " Under Refurbishment."
 Disneyland is more accurate than Wikipedia. You heard it here! The new Frozen show is going right now, and Muppet-Vision-3-D does not stand. The stupid snow queen, Elsa, finally turned The Muppets into ice....
 I wish that Disneyland could just give us a break. It's just Frozen, Frozen, Frozen. In fact, when I put up a poll, and asked, " What ride do you want to take The Muppets' place?" There was a Monsters. Inc ride, the Frozen show, and then Muppet-Vision-3-D. One person actually voted for the Frozen show.
 I'm The Muppet Fan, and I will give you more news about this topic as it develops.

10:33: Seeing the ceremony at Rockefeller Center is making me excited for my Muppet-packed trip to New York on the 22nd!
10:35: MY EYES HAVE BAGS UNDER THEM!!!!!!!!!!
10:36: Hmm... have you ever noticed how commercial breaks go on too LONG?

10:47: The ability to stay awake is a.....a..... Alright, I really need some water and a big bucket..
10:48: Can I survive 72 more minutes? CAN I? CAAANNNN IIIIII?
10:49: The short answer to that is I can't. I will prove it to you. I'll do my best, but just saying..
10:50: Really? One Direction? Story of my Life? I need some commentary by Miss Piggy! If only A Toast to 2014! was still on..

11:18: New. Year's Eve news is not as interesting as you'd think......
11:18: I need some Miss Piggy commentary or Johnny Car.... I mean, Jimmy Fallon news. ( That's a reference of a reference! You just got schooled by a Muppet encyclopedia!)
11:20: I can go without sleep for just 40 more minutes, right?

Disney Drive-On with The Muppets episode 1 review

 Hi-ho, Muppet fans! This is The Muppet Fan, back with a new post! Alright, so, yesterday, I posted a  whole Muppety year of review!! One of the things that was under mentioned was Disney Drive-On starring The Muppets, which was a 6-episode series made by Disney starring Walter and Pepe. I liked this series, so I figured I would review the episodes, starting with episode 1:

 So, the whole idea of this is that Walter, a Muppet Studios intern, is " helped" by Pepe when Pepe is in a meeting with Kermit and Kermit leaves. When Walter is trying to sell business cards for Pepe, he accidentally falls into the Disney animation studio and meets Oscar-winning Martin Landau!
 One of the best parts in this is two monkeys that are trying to plan ideas for a new Muppet movie, but are failing, but they don't know that!
 I also like the recurring joke of Pepe calling Walter " Howard" and Walter explaining that it's not his name, but Pepe still calls him that anyways.
 Also, it's fantastic they brought Bill Barretta in because he makes awesome contributions, including
 the characters Pepe, Bobo, and Big Mean Carl, who eats a poor little bunny...
 It's interesting to note that this was made during the year 2012, because of the obvious " Wreck-It Ralph" reference shown, which seems annoying at some times when you watch the video.
 Also, there's a awesome appearance by Kermit the Frog,who in a short time gets taken over by Pepe.
 When Walter tries to sell business cards that are made by Pepe, the results are funny because absolutely nobody will buy them except for surprisingly Martin Landau!
 There's an awesome cameo by Martin Landau, who is in the recording studio when Walter comes in to his surprise and meet him!! Walter accidentally records his line, and it's a wrap for Martin Landau, who says, " Well, if it's a wrap, it's a wrap!" Then, there's over-long credits ( nothing new, in our day) and it's the end!
 This episode is funny and fun, and everything you would want in a first episode. If only we could get an episode like this for the Muppet interstitial show in 2015... but, let's not talk about that!
 The funniest gag in this is probably when Pepe is announced to help Walter, and Pepe hands Walter the business cards, and there's about 12 seconds of silence, then Pepe yells at Walter, " NOW, GO!!!"
 I would rate this episode a 9.5 out of a 10, and join me tomorrow when I review the episode number 2 of Disney Drive-On Starring The Muppets!
