    I will say, the real reason Scooter wasn’t seen much in Muppets Tonight (and why Clifford hosted) was due to Richard Hunt’s untimely death. Scooter didn’t get a new permanent puppeteer until the early 2000s, I believe, and he wasn’t seen much of the 90s. :( In terms of lore, though, it’s super interesting why Kermit or whoever would’ve chose Clifford instead of Scooter to host!

  • @Animated_Lunch
    @Animated_Lunch 11 месяцев назад +120

    The Muppet Theatre ownership is complicated further by “It’s a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie” (2002). In a deleted scene Kermit says Scooter’s uncle died and Kermit inherited the building, but the script writer refutes this.

    • @RealKillianTube

      Scooter mentions it too in the actual movie! I lost my mind. Definitely covering that in the follow up video. Thank you!

      Also, the climax involved the theater being designated as a historical landmark by the state, thus protecting it from demolition. The entire plot of the 2011 movie should be null and void.

    • @alisachamoy225
      @alisachamoy225 5 месяцев назад

      So first of all: Can a frog even enter into a binding contract? Also, after they found oil under the theatre in episode 410, J.P. sold the mining rights to the "Guest Star's Dressing Room" so wouldn't the owner of the dressing room (or that entity) itself be the only one who could enter into that contract?

    • @bensakschek615
      @bensakschek615 Месяц назад +1

      ​@otaking3582 I have two theories about that.
      Theory 1. Tex Richman bribed the government to have the Muppet Theater's historical landmark status revoked.
      Theory 2: It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie is non-cannon.

  • @nothingrhymeswithorange5294
    @nothingrhymeswithorange5294 9 месяцев назад +54

    You know what isn't an inconsistency?
    In Muppets Tonight, season one episode five, Bobo falls in love Cindy Crawford and at the end she reciprocates the feelings. Much, much later in the Muppets 2015, a subplot in an early episode sees Bobo struggling to sell Girl Scout cookies for his daughter...
    His daughter...
    The logical conclusion to all this is that Bobo hitched Cindy Crawford and they had a kid.

    The "rich and famous" contract has nothing do with the Muppet Theater. It's part of the Muppet Movie universe (the story of how they "more or less" first met), with other films being either productions from that universe or part of their real-life Hollywood careers.
    Our main Muppets bounced from Sam & Friends, to the Ed Sullivan show (with Kermit also on Sesame Street), to various specials and pilots, to the Muppet Show proper and the start of their movie careers, to other specials and MuppeTelevision, to Muppets Tonight, and so on.
    In short, the Muppets didn't become Hollywood stars by first meeting each other on Kermit's cross-country road trip, the theater Muppets had a close relationship with Jim Henson who pulls some strings to kickstart their movie careers, after the Muppet Show became popular enough. It's also why they had their Hollywood special which seems to continue from the Muppet Show. In fact, past guest stars like Liberace and Rita Moreno (who Animal knows very well) are also in attendance.

    With the whole "movie inside movie" thing, literally every Muppet Movie is like that, the original Mippet Movie starts with them in a theater, the Great Muppet Caper's opening musical number is saying to the audience that they're doing a movie, Muppets most wanted starts revealing that the audience in the previous movie were extras

    Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, which the 2011 movie recycled the "Evil capitalist tries to acquire the Muppet Theater and demolish it" plot from reveals that Scooter's Uncle died and left the Muppets with a ton of debt in a deleted scene, resulting in their current predicament.

    I’ve recently started watching the 1976 series, & there’s an inconsistency that you missed. Scooter’s 1st appearance is actually in episode 1, but he doesn’t actually start being a Gofer until he’s re-introduced in episode 6

      @TheGerkuman 4 месяца назад +1

      Episode 1 got held back until the end of the season when first season was aired, because it was a bit lacking. So while it's true from a production standpoint, it isn't an inconsistency for the original airing.

  • @shellyvision9693
    @shellyvision9693 7 месяцев назад +11

    Here’s an interesting inconsistency. The original Muppets movie establishes that the founding members of the Muppets were Kermit, Fozzie, Dr. Teeth, Floyd, Janice, Zoot, Animal, Scooter, Gonzo, Camila, Sweetums, Miss Piggy, Rowlf, Bunsen, and Beaker. Despite that, Beaker and Camila aren’t in the first season of the Muppet Show at all, and they don’t even know Scooter at the start of the Muppet Show. That’s always been the biggest inconsistency to me.

    Theory time: Fozzie is working with Statler and Waldorf. He's their straight man... bear... whatever. He sets them up to rag on his jokes and they get the audience to laugh. So, either Fozzie is funny, or S & W are, either way, Fozzie gets to bask in laughter.

      @pokedash55 6 месяцев назад +3

      You could spin this another way, where they are natural antagonists for eachother. Fozzie is funny but SW rag on him anyway because of their familial relationship. Its shown in "Muppets Family Christmas" that Statler and Waldorf are good family friends with Fozzies mother, meaning they have probably known Fozzie for far longer than He has them. I bet they come to the studio just to see him fail.

  • @CooperWood-ty9wq
    @CooperWood-ty9wq 8 месяцев назад +4

    Okay, so here we go. There are 3 levels to the muppets’ existence. First is our world where they’re puppets. Next is what I’ll call the “TV-verse” because this is where the shows, talk show appearances, tv specials, Sesame Street, and Fraggle Rock are set. Then there’s the “movie-verses,” with each movie being set in its own fictional universe created by the muppets of the tv-verse. The biggest problem there is the play Manhattan Melodies from Muppets Take Manhattan which the tv-verse muppets may have actually performed sometime in the 80s or maybe something like that. It’s a bit confusing. Muppet Babies is its own weird thing. Maybe Piggy imagined it all, maybe the muppets licensed their likenesses of themselves as babies to an animation studio…I don’t know and nobody does. It’s best to forget about the muppet babies appearing in Muppet Family Christmas, too, because that opens up a TON of problems. With all of that in mind:
    10. Scooter’s uncle who owned the theater is JP Grosse, who died (in the tv-verse) sometime after the muppet show and left the theater to Kermit. Tex Richman and the standard rich and famous contract were created by the muppets for the movies.
    9. I can’t say why Scooter wasn’t picked to host Muppets Tonight, but I am glad Clifford is gone. Between his design and puppeteer Kevin Clash’s allegations, we probably won’t see much of him again. In universe, he was probably fired or left the muppets for his own reasons.
    8. I’ve got nothing for Piggy oinking.
    7. Gonzo’s species has never been clear. Muppets in Space is a movie within the fictional tv-verse, as all the muppet movies are. Gonzo’s mother is actually more of an inconsistency than you mentioned, because in a Muppet Show episode, Gonzo claimed that his mother died before he was born.
    6. Gonzo and Camilla have always had a very loose relationship, with Gonzo flirting with plenty of birds (including Big Bird in the Leslie Uggams episode of the Muppet Show) while he’s supposed to be dating Camilla.
    5. Just because Lew likes war movies doesn’t mean he wants to make a war movie.
    4. Maybe they’re different species of muppet bear? This one’s always confused me too.
    3. Fozzie is funny. Statler and Waldorf are clearly just jerks.
    2. Gary and Walter…brothers or just friends? Okay, you got me on this one.
    1. I just assumed that Lips got his brain fried after too many years of rock and roll. The Mayhem are almost-canonically stoners, and that must have affected them in some way.
    Then again, as you said, muppets lore doesn’t really matter and this is your video, so believe whatever you want! It’s just the muppets.

And also Muppet Monsters were they were adults but did similar animation to Muppet Babies.

    Lore inconsistency: in the Milton Berle episode of The Muppet Show, Fozzie is afraid to confront Milton as Milton is his idol and can't think of a good way to introduce himself. However, though during the Entertainer number, a group of Muppets join in to sing along one of them being Fozzie. This is before Fozzie works up the courage to introduce himself to Milton.
    Another lore inconsistency is how in the Zero Mostel episode during the UK spot, It says that there's going to be a pantomime sketch with Fozzie and Zero. However though no sketch appears. There was one filmed but ultimately ended up a deleted scene, but since it has never surfaced and was never released, it counts as a lore inconsistency.

    pretty sure Muppets take Manhattan is meant to be an in universe play with another fictional play in it. The Muppets literally describe the movie they're in whenever they describe the plot of their musical Manhattan Melodies so its one of those things where its confusing but its just so they can make a joke/reference?? the Muppet movie did this too where they end up making the movie they were just in at the end of the movie but with cardboard cut outs. i think its just something the writers really like. I choose to believe Muppets take Manhattan is non-canon bc in that movie they apparently just got out of collage and knew each other there. uh. yeah. i don't know when that would fit into the timeline. maybe they all went back to collage together after getting that contract but that makes zero sense to me
    With the Muppet movie the line Kermit says before the movie starts. I've heard that that was a reference to how the movie is an allegory for Jim Henson's real story but that's kinda dumb. i think that its probably bc the movie is an exaggeration of the in universe backstory with added meta jokes bc that movie is weirdddly meta. like its one of those biographical movies that changes stuff for comedy but its mostly true. and since the muppets are fictional we can just assume everything is true unless evidence shows otherwise.
    The thing with Muppets from space is that i will not be scornful for the unpopular opinion of taking it as canon. BUT its largely ignored as canon by the franchise itself. to me, Muppets from space kinda ruins the message of Gonzo that he's unique and undefined and confident in that. I absolutely love aliens as a concept and Gonzo is my second favorite muppet so the movie is very fun for me (Walter is my favorite bc him being really autistic about the muppets in his movie is what got me really into puppets. You know your skill of spreading special interest is godly when it transcends your very reality) but im glad most ppl don't see it as canon. for awhile they did try to categorize Gonzo as an alien but they've kinda backtracked on that. I prefer him as a whatever.
    Basically the "its a movie within the universe" thing can apply to like. All the movies. like i don't think gonzo was a sailor in pirate times or uh--- Charles Dickens. theyre meant to be in universe actors so i think most inconsistencies can be explained with it just being a bit? every series has consistency issues but with the muppets it drives me insane bc i obsess over whats canon and whats not. i blame. my autism diagnosis.

    My Brain has been sorting through Muppet lore for weeks now and I'm glad someone is trying to point these fun details out. There are alot of random Muppet canon divergences that happen and alternate timelines going on. What's a movie inside a movie? What's canon to the original show and what isnt? Like people forget Muppets TV existed, but that is, with Muppets Tonight, a spinoff of the Show format. Making it canon would also make Muppet 3d vision canon, as that has Waldo in it. It's also worth looking into interviews and Live performances. Like with the Electric Mayhem, Floyd confirms that the Muppet Movie actually happened to them at a concert in the mid 2010s, but Scooter being the Band Manager has never been a part of the Mayhem lore since the movie. I think that was just a way to have scooter play a aprt in the movie and he wasn't actually with them during that time.

    • @pokedash55

      Gonna use this video to continue to ramble about Muppet Lore since no one else will. Long post ahead::
      The biggest brain break is a special called "The Muppets Celebrate 30 years". This has it all. Inconsistant character backgrounds, crossovers, footage from the Show playback, and Jim Henson appearing as a canon person. So in this, Kermit mentions his early days of doing commercials and his friendship with Sam and Friends (Fozzie is astonished Kermit did comercials). Did Kermit do commercials after their big break in the original movie but before he was able to secure a show? Is Kermit's swamp years canon? In Muppets go to Disney World, Its said that Kermit grew up in Florida, near Disney World but I believe he grew up in Mississippi in the Movie. And Swamp Years doesn;t look at all like Florida. So Kermit's backstory is pretty dubious.
      In the same anniversary special, Rowlf mentions that he was a big star during the Jimmy Dean show, so that is now canon. He also sings about Lassie dyeing in the Muppet Show, something that only makes sense having seen the Jimmy Dean show where he proposes to lassie. Even more confusing is in the Muppets (2015) he kept a picture of him and Jimmy, even though that show is divorced from the OG timeline! So when Did Rowlf do those commercials and land his spot with Jimmy Dean?? No clue.
      Muppet Babies is another blackhole of lore. It's not canon to the OG SHOW/2011 timeline, since they met in the OG Movie but it IS canon to A Family Christmas, where they watch a family video of them as babies, mentioning it is their first Christmas together.
      Muppet TV and Muppets Tonight could be the same canon, but I am unsure how they fit with the SHOW timeline persay. 2015 is pretty divorced from everything. It is also unclear of Kermiggy's canon status, they go on so many interviews now it's hard to say. all the 80s and 90s movies are just movies made by the cast, so they are clear of error.
      So A Family Christmas, 30 year Anniversary, Muppet Babies are all canon to eachother... but the 30th Anniversery is a celebration of the OG SHOW, who has a movie about the origin of how they met.... which contradicts the babies canon??? And the 2011 movie acknoledges the Movie and Show happened in canon, but the sequel frames the 2011 movie as yet another movie! This isn't even mentioning the Babies reboot, a show who's final episode is a Muppet Show homage, with Veterinarians Hospital and Pigs in space references.
      It's a mess...

    Here’s one (I’m still binging the original Muppet Show, so forgive me if this has an answer); So, in ABC’s The Muppets (specifically the episode with Kristen Chenoweth), it is revealed that Janice at one point was dating Dr. Teeth. This could have been off screen, but I have found nothing on that yet. I do know Janice was with Zoot at one point around Season 1, and this has been acknowledged. Is this an inconsistency? If it isn’t, is there an episode or movie that can prove this happened?

      @@RealKillianTube Some more inconsistencies I noticed (I kept trying to get more of a list of them and I completely forgot);
      -The Electric Mayhem being on a perpetual tour. Now, it makes sense that they are always jamming and touring, but in the 2011 film, they are shown as playing in a New York subway without Animal (or Lips, but you did a good deep dive into Lips). I wouldn’t consider that a tour, but maybe by the Mayhem’s standards, it is a tour. Still, it is a little weird with Animal being away from the Mayhem like that (although if you consider it just a movie with The Muppets as actors, it makes a little more sense).
      -Janice’s twin sister (this is very Electric Mayhem themed); In Muppets Mayhem, Janice states that she has a twin sister she doesn’t speak to. This could be Season 1 Janice (who was played by a different actress entirely), but it isn’t made very clear.
      -I originally was going to bring up Floyd being jealous that Janice had hooked up with Dr. Teeth, but an interview being released stating that Floyd was fine with Janice being with Zoot. After Muppets Mayhem, it actually makes sense why Floyd would be a little upset (as Dr. Teeth and him have a close bond)
      -I’m not even touching Muppet Babies and then Animal’s backstory in Muppets Mayhem. I am just going to assume an alternate reality for simplicity.
      These are things that I felt unsure about, so there may be an explanation, but I have yet to find it (this dives into your whole “Play or Movie” bit at the end).

    i think you get close to why the lore is inconsistent at the end of the video, there is no "lore" because in most of the content they are acting. a good rule of thumb for whether or not they are acting is the inconsistencies from the original muppet show, and i personally believe that none of the movies really happened (or were otherwise abstract depictions of what happened for entertainments sake). however, i would love for someone to talk about what the status of kermit and miss piggy's relationship, because if manhattan were canon why would they be "broken up" not divorced in the abc show and some other depictions?

    Frankly Muppet babies, it’s just a giant wormhole of the Muppet franchise, because in the modern day reboot, they put Robin in it, but that doesn’t even make any sense because cause that would mean permit the frog and robin are around the same age, but apparently according to the original Muppet show he is five and I’m 90% sure Kermit is 68 years oldalso, apparently in Muppet babies Robin is a poly for frog, which why isn’t Kermit to as well aren’t you too both babies

    There is a difference between the real people the Muppets actually are and the character the Muppets they play. In the bonus Scratching the Surface (2011) it becomes clear that they only play a role of themselves in the film, the puppet director James Bobin and his assistant are also interviewed as well as the stars and the puppets. In other words, in the films they play themselves but in their film roles they are essentially not themselves. As if, for example, Jack Black plays himself in a film but then not as he is in real life. The Muppet show shows them as they are and in the films they act out fictitious stories.

    Two things about Gonzo: According to Jim Henson in some book I forgot the name of, Gonzo is meant to be a chicken hawk, which explains his infatuation with Camilla. Hang on, side thought: What if Gonzo was meant to be a reference to Prince Phillip? Which would mean the nose... but... no ears? But also Camilla...?
    There's an episode of the Muppet Show, I think the one where Jim Nabors guest stars, where the entire cast starts turning into chickens through Cluckitis, and I vaguely remember Gonzo saying something to the effect of, "Camilla's whichever chicken I'm interested in at the moment, Kermit..."
