Muppets Win a People's Voice Award from the Webbys
I don't know if anyone else on the forum has reported this already, but Beaker's Ode To Joy video on YouTube has been nominated for a Webby for best music video!

You can vote for it and in other categories online at pv.webbyawards.com.

Last year the Webbys say one award was decided by a single vote, so every vote counts!

Woo-Hoo! These videos are such a step in the right direction, both in what The Muppets should be doing and increasing the fan base . . . my 15-year-old cousin told me she thought Beaker was cool . . . Muppet Fans, use your voice to tell Disney THIS is what we want The Muppets to do!

I wasn't going to, to be honest. But Rizzo asked me nicely via email. I can't say no to the rat

I'd be more than happy to vote ... but I tried registering and it never gave me the activation code. I tried twice. *shrugs*

That is awesome... I already voted, but that video has prompted me to put it in my Facebook status and spread the word to my non-obsessed friends. Come on, gang! If we don't vote first, no one else will!

BEAKER FOR A WEBBY '09! ! !

I really hope Beaker wins this, though it will probably go to that unfunny Fred thing. I mean, really... what's that appeal?

I guess people like a spazzy child with a digital-altered voice.

You know what Fred needs an online show? Emperor Fred...

"SHOOO Bop!" I'd watch that.

Plus, the Muppets could use all the publicity they could get right now.

Just a reminder, everyone has until the end of today to vote. The Muppets Studios has requested that everyone here takes the time to vote if you haven't done so already.

Go to the Webby Awards website, register and vote. The Muppet video is in the “Online Film & Video Ballot (Music Category).” The Webby Awards are some of the most prestigious on-line awards and the Muppets need your support to bring home a win.

Beaker's "Ode to Joy" and other viral Muppet videos are here...

I was having the same trouble but finally found the email with the activation code in my spam folder. Just a thought.

Come on everyone go vote! We need to make sure Beaker wins!
