im gutted that muppet babies arent out>( i found someone selling copies on ebay- and bought them-:sympathy: i knew it was just transferred from vhs, from shows like "going live" in the uk- sadly it did not have 2 episodes i wanted- WEIRDO (not sure of correct title- but gonzo sings about being weird andis sad coz the babies are copying him) and also the one when gonzo sings- Ill be blue for you- coz nanny hits camilla with the hoover and she bursts... :(
still a few good ones on the dvd, however, alot of repeats, but thats the risk of ebay.
I dunno why they dont release them, those toys they tried before with the free dvd were TERRIBLE quality, so no wonder noone bought them...
i hate disney ruining it.:mad:

Oh i know what you mean about the fact that the muppet babies dolls oh yes they where poor quitly expecally piggy and she is my all time faverite muppet and muppet baby ,

oh i love the one where nanny runs over piggy with the vacume that was sad but a good one ,

I don't know why that disney is not realsing them that is just so nuts .
oh well i guess that there is always hope .

Hello!
I don't know how legitimate this is, but I've seen it around now for about 6th months. But I have yet to see it on any major selling site. But I thought I would show y'all this.
If it's already been posted, I'm sorry... :o
Take a look and let me know what you think!

i think they should give evry one a little slice of what they would make and and give us what we will purchase.
its that simple.

I havent seen a Muppet Babies episode in ages.

muppetperson

03-26-2008, 03:44 PM

I was silly enough to buy the "complete" Muppet babies" DVDs on ebay for $100.Not to mention that they are taped direct from TV and there are 6 episodes missing and some are chopped off.

unclematt

03-26-2008, 04:30 PM

That stinks. I am sorry Muppetperson

erniebert1234ss

I was silly (and stupid and impatient) enough to buy that set. Disney should PLEASE release a DVD with EVERY SINGLE EPISODE BEING COMPLETE.

Can't emphasize that enough!

I would love to see a complete set. I just dont think that there is the demand for it.

Teheheman

Right now on TVShowsonDVD.com, Muppet Babies are ranked 40th on unreleased, and 167th overall with 97% wanting a season set, 30% wanting a best of, and 20% wanting individual episodes. Almost 2,000 votes for the show, so I'm sure there's a demand for it.

i wasnt a huge fan of MB but it might make a nice addition to my collection.

Teheheman

04-05-2008, 02:52 PM

Ok, Tiny Toons(which I love and WILL try to own on DVD) was ranked 45th, and Freakazoid(also love but not as much as Tiny Toons) is ranked in the 50s for unreleased DVDs, but they are getting releases? What's up with that? Unless they wanna wait til ALL of the Muppet Show DVDs are out before they put the Muppet Babies, then Muppets Tonight out there. Don't ask me, I just thought that might be the reason.

It comes down to the same problem with Muppet Babies. Will copyright be a problem? Most episodes were full of movie and TV clips from a wide range of production companies.

LeanneFuller

Seems a bit mad, as Muppet Babies was brought out on VHS

It comes down to the same problem with Muppet Babies. Will copyright be a problem? Most episodes were full of movie and TV clips from a wide range of production companies.

I've been doing some thinking and researching. I feel that they could at least have Best Ofs or single episodes or something.l Why? because not every episode features copywrited materials interspearced into the show. Especially in the later episodes, movie clips were nothing more than stock footage. maybe an occasional bit, like the Nintendo video game clips in "It's only Pretendo." As Gonzo said in one episode, refering to the fact they couldn't use clips from batman, "Are you nutz? Warner Brothers wanted a million dollars for a three second clip."

And I've said what i've said before...

Jeffery Scott would hit the roof if clips of the Three Stooges wouldn't be used (he's Moe's Grandson, after all), George Lucas has an excellent relationship with Henson and Disney (hense the theme park Star Wars Muppets), so he'd pull for Star Wars and Indiana Jones clips. Only thing that would be a problem is various other clips used from Columbia, in which Henson had a partnership with them in the 80's. Maybe some sitcom clips down the line would be hard to clear, but I feel they could do it.

They problably just don't want to. look how long it took them to release their own Disney Afternoon sets. And most of them are unfinished.

Can anyone sell me the full cast of the muppet babies?

unclematt

04-16-2008, 05:25 PM

muppetperson

04-18-2008, 01:11 PM

Fozzie, Kermit, Piggy, Scooter, Sceeter, Gonzo, Rowlf and Animal. We would sometimes get cameos from Bean, Bunsen and Beaker. We also saw Janice as a teen (once), Robin as a tadpole (once) and Statler and Waldorf (once)

Statler and Waldorf were in a few of the episodes.I think Robin did make a second appearance in a later episode, but I could be wrong.I think muppetkingmiste might mean sell all the episodes?(Rather than selling all the cast)

Beauregard

04-18-2008, 01:32 PM

Statler and Waldorf were in quite a few later episodes. They were great, and sort of played the wise uncles more than anything.

Robin was in it twice.

Thank you for the correction guys and sorry for the misinformation.

Thank you for the correction guys and sorry for the misinformation.

You are excused! you did say you hadnt seen an episode in ages,
and you werent out by much, only on Statler & Waldorf, which I beleive the later episodes they were in have been restricted air play, and you werent out too far on Robin.

muppet baby

10-13-2008, 10:37 PM

Yes, and I cannot tell you where to purchase them for legal reasons (i.e. they're bootlegs).

However, I would recommend waiting for Muppet Babies to be officially released onto DVD (which may be awhile yet, Disney is doing way too much way too quickly, and probably we'll see absolutely nothing regarding either Muppets or Muppet Babies on DVD till 2009).

BJ

yes i am going to wait for the realease of disney puting them out i have seen the bootleged ones on certine websites and i really thought oh my goodness , those must be awful and i have seen some revews about them to that they where just cheap riped from tv .

I can't wait for the disney to put them out maybe we will see a blu-ray release that would be so wonderful and beutiful for the great muppet babies . i mean ever thing is going to be going to blu-ray over the next seveal years anyway ;)

Teheheman

10-14-2008, 12:51 PM

I have a theory. Once they get done with all the Muppet Shows and Muppets Tonight, maybe THEN we'll see a release of Muppet Babies. Then Disney might do something like they do with ALL TV shows now. A complete series on DVD. A Muppet-Mania collection or something with all the Muppet Show, Muppets Tonight, Muppet Babies, and all the Muppet Movies in one pack with new extras and stuff. Sounds like a good idea to me.

While there are bootleg ones that are not legal, not to mention you don't know how good they'll look, there has been a few actual releases.

That's the good news, the bad news is they are very hard to find and only have like one or two episodes. The DVD's came with a plush doll of I believe Kermit, Piggy or Gonzo, maybe Fozzie too but I can't remember. Anyhow, I've seen these dolls with the DVD's go for a pretty good amount of money on ebay and that's if you can even find them.

Hope that helps in someway.

Drtooth

10-16-2008, 11:57 AM

I've just given up hope on waiting for it. If we want to watch it, most of them are up on youtube. Just download them with mediaconverter before they're taken down.

Redsonga

They look pretty good :). And not legal or not right now they are our only way of having more than two episodes besides ripping them off youtube:coy:

I feel very fortunate that I managed to tape several episodes off the TV when it aired on Nick Jr., but I'm still missing the last season and a handful from the others.

I've pretty much given up that they'll ever release it, at least in it's original form with no video cuts due to copyright. It's very sad that this cool show is destined to that fate.

JJandJanice

02-01-2009, 01:53 AM

I doubt Disney is, at least as of now, too worried about releasing Muppet Babies, I don't think they think their is enough of a demand for them or, as mention before, the show used so much footage from other shows and famous movies that it would be almost impossible to get all the shows uncut.

And many people would probably say well why can't Disney just paid it off, after all their a billion dollar company. But that doesn't mean they should just pay whatever amount thoes other companies would be asking for, they could get to a much that just isn't fair for a 30 second or so clip.

Speaking as someone with a huge collection of cartoon or animation DVDs, I would love to add Muppet Babies to that collection. And since it's owned by Disney, if it were to have a release within the next year or two, it would come with that "Disney Movie Rewards" points, which I've been collecting, :), it would make it all the sweeter.

BlakeMP

I have to agree -- I'd love to see it, but I doubt we will.

JJandJanice

02-02-2009, 04:48 PM

To be honset, I would much rather get the rest of rest of the Muppet Show and, to be honset, I think I would rather have Muppets Tonight on DVD before Muppet babies.

Drtooth

02-03-2009, 03:14 PM

Exactly. I love Muppet Babies and all, but I wanna see seasons 4 and 5 come out so I can stop worrying if they'll come out or not.

BlakeMP

02-03-2009, 08:19 PM

Oh, don't misunderstand -- if it were a choice between The Muppet Show and Muppet Babies, I'd take the classic any time. But eventually, I'd like to have the MBs too.

muppet baby

02-19-2009, 01:46 PM

well you know, Muppet babies is my all time faverite cartoon of all time . I am a all around muppet freak , i am one of those who wants , all of the muppet tv series on DVD Muppets tonight the rest of the muppt show and Muppet babies .

I love the muppet show so much i could watch it every day i was nuts about it from the time i was a 2 years old

unclematt

02-19-2009, 05:34 PM

You know matt i have been thinking the same thing :( i really hope that they do make seasons 4 and 5 of the muppet show it was my all time faverite show before Dr Quinn Medican Woman so now i have 2 all time faverite shows . Anyway , it would so sad with such a classic as the Muppet Show , they should release the last 2 seasons , i mean it is really classic mupets and they did such great jobs on the box art to :)

It would be such a shame to not have the whole series released on DVD. It would be sad to have the first three seasons and nothing else.

Has Disney ever released a full series of anything though as far as one complete set, :confused:.

I don't know if I would bet on that, Fraggle Rock was a total original show with original songs so it was really easy to get a full series set of FR. Muppet Show doesn't have that, so I don't see it happening. It seems like that's already the biggest problem Disney is having with the season sets, it's totally not cause of a lack of interested kind of thing, people are wanting to buy it and they've been huge sellers.

If it did happen, oh I would be one of the first in line to get my hands on it, but I don't see it.

i got a chance to watch some of the nick jr reruns but i never got a chance to tape any of them :(:(:cry: i really would love that so much either season sets coming out over time or a complte series set of the THE MUPPET BABIES MY ALL TIME FAVERITE CARTOON SUNDAY MORNING SERIES OF ALL TIME .

As a matter of fact i would buy the season sets if they would come out and then later a complete series i would by both in a heart beat

I would love to get ahold of an 84-86 season of Muppet Babies. I don't even care if its some bootleg. It's just wrong so many garbage kids shows are on dvd, but Muppet Babies(which I consider one of the best of the 80's kids shows) has languished in obscurity for many years. I think the only officially released episodes were the single episodes that came with the Muppet Babies plushes.

I say we need Muppet Babies and Fraggle Rock Animated season sets!

i am to beaker i am so ready for the animated fraggle rock sets and the Muppet babies , sets those where two of my faverites saterday morning cartoons loved them so much . I did find sometthing yesterday , with a set of muppet babies but it looked llike a boot leg thing they had i think 12 or 2o disc with 102 eposides of the series on them i think it was 80 dollars .

I am going to wait a bit before i buy this to see , what happens with real release sets .

:)

Redsonga

03-20-2009, 10:00 PM

I would buy an official set of even just one season so quickly O.o...All the bootlegs have so many missing episodes (I have never bought one, but I have seen them:P)

bazooka_beak

03-21-2009, 10:02 AM

^ There are also a few places to download them but it's certainly not the same thing to have them on your harddrive - much better to have them on DVD.

I guess we could try sending letters to Disney or something? But that hasn't really worked in the past.

Hey, I get pretty annoyed when I see all these lame cable shows that I've never heard of jump to DVD the instant season 1 is part way over. I go to that TVshowsonDVD place to see if anything good's coming out, and I find "Jon and Kate Plus 8" or "I Still can't Believe I'm Single" or one of 6000 Food Network shows where they don't even have people cooking the food and giving recipes. Really? Do we really need "The Best Dang Corn Dog I've Eaten Somewhere in Outer Mongolia" Season 3? :insatiable:

Of course, I'm appauled by how Disney handles their cartoon DVD releases... no special features, only half the series with no plans to continue... I'm sure even if we did get the Muppet babies on DVD, they'd find a way to disappoint us. But I just want them to try.

Really. They'll put friggin Penelope Pitstop and Charles in Charge on DVD, but not Muppet Babies?

Penelope Pitstop had a reason to be on DVD... I guess Charles in Charge may too... but definately Penelope Pitstop... after all, that's part of the original Wacky Races trilogy (which included Dasdardly and Muttley in their Flying Machines). And Wacky Races is a classic Hanna Barbera cartoon show.

The main thing stopping MB, we all know, is all those film copyrights. They could release a best of featuring the last 2 seasons which had only stock footage... but they weren't as good as the classic 84-87 episodes. I really think, while stilted and not as good as TMS would have done, Toei really gave the show a good look.

Muppet Babies is one of the better children's cartoons, though I personally find old Rugrats better.

Rugrats was pretty good but I look at them on two completely different levels.

I agree with unclematt, I mean if you think about it, it's kind of like how do you compare?

For one thing, Rugrats created original characters that happened to be babies, Muppet Babies on the other hand had to create baby verisons of already made and well know beloved characters. (Well minus Skeeter)
