So far….4 out of 6 mayhem members became the center of attention for their week of appreciation in the Muppets 70th Anniversary!

We missing the good doctor and the fluffy yellow boi!!

As Polly Lobster has just been announced after Floyd Pepper, who do you think is gonna be the next member of the Electric Mayhem to get its recognition?

**NOTE: I won’t be drawing Floyd until I get both Teeth and Lips dates and number placements before I do a drawing similar to Janice/Zoot/Animal piece like dis!!**

Bitches want me for my growing collection of 70th anniversary muppets magnets

I almost forgot to post it here but The Muppets official Instagram is featuring a muppet a week for 70 weeks in celebration of the 70th anniversary, and this week was Nigel week! I'm mostly pointing this out because each muppet of the week is supposed to get a custom magnet but they skipped over Nigel which I find hilariously on-point for him

rowlf is so silly :]

So! for those of you who don't know or don't care, it's The Muppets 70th Anniversary!🎉

For this anniversary Disney is going to post 70 Muppets in a Muppet of the week kinda thing on The Muppets Instagram page And I have made it my mission to draw each Muppet of the week :D

And the first one is Rowlf the Dog🎉

The background I used is Rowlf's special anniversary magnet :D each character will have one and I'll make each character's backgrounds their magnets :3 (credit to magnet photo to mickeyblog.com)

Happy 70th anniversary of The Muppets! 🥁✨

The latter has always very obviously been the case, sorry. A company that owns Mickey Mouse does not need Kermit the Frog for any reason other than to control a competitor. Muppets under Disney has always been "Will Disney let us do any Muppet stuff this year? Who knows?" The 2000s Muppets movies were so forgettable to Disney that the premise of 2011's "The Muppets" is that The Muppets have not done anything since 1983. Disney is not a monolith- there's a saying that at some point we all work for Disney- but on the highest corporate level it owns way too many things, and is only capable of caring about a few at a time. Avengers. Frozen. For the 70th anniversary of The Muppets it's doing nothing.

I have been attempting the Muppets 70th anniversary 70 Muppets 70 weeks thing, but I have not been doing very well. I keep starting drawings then getting demoralised and scrapping them. I think this Animal is probably good enough so I'm posting it before I change my mind.

For week 1 of The Muppets’ 70th anniversary, we’re celebrating Rowlf! So have him with Jim and Bill who helped make this loveable doggo who he is 😘🥰🤎🖤

The December Podcast Update

Here's December's listening:

The update is: still no update! I'm still listening through "60 Songs that Explain the 90s," except now Rob is working on the 00s, and I'm listening to each new episode of that as I listen to the backlog. I'm still interested!

I'm also STILL working my way through "Cary," a half-hour at a time. Too much heartbreak. Too much Barbara Hutton. I had no idea Grant had been married that many times.

I forgot to mention that I'm listening to 70 Years, 70 Muppets, a podcast produced by the folks who do "Tough Pigs" (I think) in honor of the Muppets' 70th anniversary. It's not bad. I think I'm the problem here. I don't know what I'd hoped for in listening to this, as I'm not a regular listener of any of their other work. I suspect my appetite for whimsy is quite low right now. I also admit to this: I crankily wondered why they try to sound like Muppets themselves, before remembering that I listen at 1.25 speed. So that's that.

Listening Now: The Secret History of Hollywood; 60 Songs that Explain the 90s, Hot and Bothered; 70 Years, 70 Muppets

Finished: Sold a Story; The Plot Thickens; Ghost Story; Nice Try!; Obsessions: Wild Chocolate

Regular Listening: The Thirty28; Wedway Radio; You Must Remember This; Learning Vibes; Maintenance Phase; My Brother, My Brother, and Me; Business Wars; Fated Mates; The Indicator; Talking Pictures; The Historical Romance Sampler; What Went Wrong; If Books Could Kill; 60 Songs that Explain the 90s

Upcoming: “Ongoing History of New Music;” “Song Exploder;” “American Scandal;” “Sawbones"

Happy 70th Anniversary to The Muppets!!!

I don't usually use language (its just a repost but still)...HOWEVER this is exactly how I feel

Like, I've been a Muppet fan ever since I was a kid and the highlight of MGM/Hollywood Studios for me honestly is Muppet Vision. I don't know if it's the fact that its always been one of my favorite attractions at Disney or if it's the fact that Muppet Vision is Jim Henson's last production before his death, but either way, I'm absolutely devastated. Like, I understand that it's just a theme park film, but really it's much more than that. I mean, I guess I'm excited about a Muppets re-theme of RNRC (especially with the controversies with Aerosmith), but...Disney...you could have taken away Animation Courtyard and no one would be depressed about it.

Also, I would like to add that, way to celebrate the Muppet's 70th anniversary. This week's character (they do a character every week) is Walter, who I'm sure would also be very devastated to hear this news.

So, in general, I would gladly watch the Muppets Kill Bob Iger.

🤦🏽‍♀️ what? Seriously? I mean...haven’t they just walked away (given the boot I meant!)??

Oh dear Lord, does this mean we are going to have this drama from these 2 muppets at EVERY Royal occasion....she is going to do this every time to stay relevant & in limelight...The future looks crap
