@DrDare1000 The only thing "rooined" is your grammar and intelligence. Elmo was green for the one special, and it was to teach a lesson. Go read a book.
I think that the real point is that Paul Rudd agreed to do something obviously ridiculous just to help promote environmental awareness. That's a good thing, right?
I think Sesame Street regrets that statement. It IS easy being green, in fact - it's so easy to ave energy that it actually can make you a ton of money back while helping the environment, so they're trying to make some headway now.
@Stairc I doubt Sesame Street regrets the statement, and honestly, they shouldn't. They are two completely different songs and are not in the same context. Therefore, 'It's Not Easy Being Green' shouldn't be regarded as such.
Not at all. It's extremely cheesy, and it makes fun of a song that JIM HENSON poured his heart into. I guess being insecure is not important anymore, just reducing your carbon footprint is!
Well, I would love to agree with that statement of a 14 yr old... However, we have taken advantage of our planet. If we don't start becoming a little ECO-Friendly... there might not be much left for future generations and we to will be like the dinosaurs extinct. Check out some facts first. Earth will stay... We will vanish a lot faster if we don't start fixing the mess we made.
Well I'm not saying we should do nothing, I'm talking about these freaks that go all out to make there life revolve around keeping the earth clean and going crazy about it.
What's up with that globe? Time to go back to geography class. Alaska is not part of Canada, and Canada is not smaller than the US, but you'd never know that by looking at this globe, on a so-called educational children's program.
I know, but they flirted with celebrities with talent. Miley Cyrus is overexposed, cannot sing correctly and by putting the Muppets with people like her and other stars of that horrible network that happens to be the name of the incredibly talented man named Walt Disney, people are now more than ever believing that the Muppets are for little children when one of the reasons for the show in the first place was for Henson to have a more grown up name.
Oh right, because when Sly Stalone was on the muppet show it was because of his great talent? Or Florence Henderson? These people were on the show because of their POP status, not because they could sing or act.
nuchtchas: Excuse me, but you only listed a few of the stars. Many of the guest stars could sing and act. In fact, many of them--like Edgar Bergen--were the influence for Jim to create The Muppets in the first place!
You may not like it, but that is how it is. The Muppet Show was nothing but a cross promotion tool, better then the Tonight show because Jim, Frank & Jerry brought something new to the tvs of the US and the UK.
Anyone that wants to keep this going is good in my book. Deal with it :)
The Muppet Show was created for the same reason a lot of shows were created- a person had an idea for one and they made it happen. And the point I am getting at is that Jim Henson created the Muppet Show to break away from Sesame Street, and to prove that puppets could be used to entertain adults as well. Miley Cyrus performing with them completely diminishes that side of the Muppets.
And if the people on The Muppet Show didn't have talent, and if it wasn't a show with the purpose of entertaining, how do you account for its Emmy wins and nominations, and the fact that some of the stars on the shows had awards like those to their name?
hardly, there is a difference between the guests and the show. not all guests were super talented, you had varying talent like Harry Belefonte to Cheryl Ladd, you can't tell me that they are of the same talent level. Thing is the muppet show was so great that they can work with any celeb, even Myley Cyris.
Hey Paul, you know how I know you're gay?
