Talk:Muppet Babies (1984 TV series)

message: Muppet Babies is not a spinoff from The Muppet Show; the Muppets existed in multiple media before that show. (It is based on The Muppets Take Manhattan, though, since that is where the idea of baby Muppets originated.) —tregoweth 23:17, Apr 11, 2005 (UTC)

message: This article is terrible. I've seen similar cases where an editor has pretty much blanked the article and allowed it to get rebuilt. Is such a thing called for here, at least in some sections? It seems it's been taken over by pranksters and people with dry senses of humor. For instance:
The Baby Gonzo character strikes an ambiguous if not enigmatic chord with many viewers, amongst whom questions of his nature are a topic of considerable debate. Although he has usually been classified as a "whatever", characters in this series referred to Gonzo as being a "weirdo", as if it were a sort of creature as much as it referred to his behavior. (The movie Muppets from Space delves more deeply into the matter). In one episode, he temporarily believes he is an anteater. Muppet scholarship is generally silent on this issue.
I hate to point out the problem without doing anything about it...Maybe I will come back when I have some more time. Thousandrobots (talk) 03:05, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Good candidate for rewrite?

message: Not sure if it appropriate for inclusion, but there is an interview that purports to point out that at least one episode is based on one of L. Ron Hubbard's theories wrt. Scientology and thought.
* One of the main writers, Jeffrey Scott, is a Scientologist, so it's plausible. tregoweth 06:43, 11 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Baby Gonzo voice actress was Russi Taylor not Laurie O'Brien she only voiced Baby Piggy I mean sure Brien sounded like Gonzo in Close Encounters  of the Frog Kind but still Ms. O'Brien was not Gonzo the Great Matthew Cantrell (talk) 03:51, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

message: "The Muppet Babies live in a large nursery watched over by Nanny, the only human character in the show that appears on a regular basis. " but aren't Scooter and Skeeter human? They are according to Scooter's wikipedia page. Bouket (talk) 20:51, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

message: There are parts of this article which say Muppet Babies debuted in 1989, and other parts which say it debuted in 1984. They can't both be correct. Can someone straighten this out please?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.203.41.31 (talk) 14:04, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Still in production? 

message: For a Saturday morning cartoon series, 8 seasons and more than 100 episodes sounds immense. Has anyone checked to see if this might be the longest-running Saturday Morning cartoon series? 68.146.233.86 (talk) 03:20, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Longest-running? 

message: The article says the series was commissioned due to the success of the sequence in Muppets Take Manhattan. This is physically impossible as the movie came out in July and the TV series debuted in September. The series had to have been in production months before the movie came out. 68.146.233.86 (talk) 03:24, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Error? 

message: Hello. I'm announcing that I will clean up anything from the article as much as I can. The home video release section has already been cleaned up to look better visually. Soon, I will clean up the "Awards and nominations" section, as it will also look better visually as well. Since citations are needed for either whatever is needed or added, so if you want to have a talk in here with me or anyone, including for research and citations, this is the section to look for... Even though I am not a member of the moderation nor admin team on Wikipedia, I am an expert with the original Muppet Babies material, and I am willing to clean up anything on here. Any mistakes will be wisely handled and apologized. Thank you for reading! - Aubreeprincess (talk) 07:45, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
