As someone who has relied heavily on the Internet Archive for research for not only this blog but also professional uses, I urge people to show their support to archive and openlibrary. Make sure if you have an account there, change all of your passwords!! Be safe out there!

I did one of those fan edits of Muppet Family Christmas because the US DVD is missing scenes. I wasn't going to share it, but there are 4 other versions on the Internet Archive that I think are done wrong.

The big advantage to mine is I did a really nice deinterlace to bring the 480i footage to a proper 60fps.

Just watch out for the Archive's auto generated mp4 that is only 640x480. Kinda throws away my cleanup work.

You mentioned you like the idea that everyone in TMA is a Muppet except for Jon, so I have a very, very important question...

Which Muppets would you cast for who and why?

I always thought Trevor Herbert had big Animal energy.

[ID: A digital drawing in a vintage cartoon style of Sasha and Tim as a witch and a black cat respectively. Sasha is a tall Afro-Latina woman with curly black hair and she is wearing a purple and orange dress with a matching pointy hat and orange and black striped thigh-high socks, black slippers, as well as a black choker, round yellow earrings, and she is holding a broom. Tim is a short, stocky Latino man with purple hair a small goatee, and cat ears, and he is wearing a black bodysuit with feet paws and a tail, and a bell collar and rectangular glasses. They are both smiling and posing as if for a photo with Sasha having one hand on her hip and one leg raised, and Tim raising his hands up like paws. The colors are offset from the line-art in multiple directions and the background is off-white. end ID]

•Meet Gonzo, one of the ‘Muppets' most eccentric yet, kindhearted characters to emerge from Jim Henson's world

•Well-known for his boundless enthusiasm and everlasting devotion—whether it is through artistic endeavors or outrageous stunts, what really sets gonzo apart from the rest of the Hensons creations is his unrestrained charm and gentleness that sits beneath his foam rubber & fabric insides

•At his core, Gonzo is all heart & ingenuity. He is brave, courageous, and unapologetic about himself—never hesitant to try anything new, regardless of how unconventional it is.

Sure, others may scoff at his quirkiness, but he wears it like a badge of honor, showing us all what true confidence looks like and I really love that about him

•Gonzo's philosophy and way of life serves as a lesson in creativity and self-love: it’s to embrace your individuality, be proud of who you are, and approach every obstacle with optimism and discernment. He is in fact so much more than simply a Muppet; he is a genuine soul

id like to make a statement from an anonymous member of many communities.

archivist, id suggest you keep your... heh, eye, on as many of the blogs as you can. people are not who they seem. people have many faces, many names, many identities.

I am people.

games aside, or rather, games started, I will tell you that I, whom you may call faceless one, have infiltrated this community from every angle imaginable. over time, I have slithered into the backbone of this world you call a home.

watch out, archivist... for my masks are varied and spread far.

I watch all.

-the faceless.

So it begins...

I knew that it would be a matter of time before I was approached in such a manner. It has happened before. To Watch as I do is to uncover all secrets, to reveal the darkness underneath, to stir the creatures that lurk there. Yet even these monsters are not immune to the compulsion to reveal, and so they come as the others do, descending into the archives to give their statements.

The Faceless One, is it? How interesting...many masks from which so many eyes watch as I do...

This is certainly a development, but hardly one that comes as a surprise. While it has not been one the primary threads I have been chasing, the proposition that there is an entity that has bled its way into the multiple facets of this twisting fractal of an investigation is one I am incredibly willing to accept.

You have presented me with an interesting game, Faceless One. I've got my Eye 👁️ on you.

Hey, since I’ve seen more people on my dash talking about The Muppets in general lately, here’s some links to older muppet media I’ve had trouble looking for in the past and even though they don’t seem as hard to find now, a lot of people might not have heard about them if they aren’t into muppets, so if you’re interested or want to watch something different or just kill some time here ya go

(All or most of these are uploaded by the same user and while their account has tons of muppet media it’s a little scattered so I wanted to put these specific ones together for ease)

Here’s Hey Cinderella!, a muppet production of Cinderella. I love the stepsisters and this has one of the few muppet monsters that have ever made me feel uneasy

Here’s the Muppets Musicians of Bremen, which features no human actors,

Here’s The Frog Prince, featuring the first appearances of dear Robin and Sweetums

Here’s The Great Santa Claus Switch, this upload has multiple sections of video because it contains everything featured in the dvd, the third one is the start of the movie itself

Here’s the lovely, heartwarming Emmet Otters Jugband Christmas

And here’s the two original pilots, The Muppets Valentines Show plays first and is then followed by The Muppets: Sex and Violence. They stick a little bit they’ll play through just fine.

I hope people enjoy and if there’s any interest I’d be more than happy to make another group post with links to other older muppet specials, just let me know!!! I watched all these and others while I was pretty sick last week

Notes On The Rot

Does anyone else think The Rot is very similar to The Corruption from TMA??? The black mold, the rotting meat, the sickness... could be its own entity thing but if we want to operate under the theory that The Croaker is someone using the internet as the modern storytelling device... possibly some TMA inspo...

i like to think that in the tma universe, jim henson was actually an avatar of the stranger who just really wanted to make tv

Muppet Treasure Island (Windows, Activision, 1996)

A three-disc adventure game that's far better than a licensed game has any right to be. Even Tim Curry and Billy Connolly show up! You can download it here, or download it pre-configured to run on modern versions of Windows here.
