STATLER AND WALDORF'S BOX AT THE MUPPET THEATRE

Image


I've never watched a muppets movie, but I sure remember the heckling from the balcony on the Muppet Show on TV. :)

Congratulations 4LJ!

Some comments on my answers:

  • The balcony first appeared on a TV programme (something nobody ever asked about). Instead we hit on movies - a big fat red herring, which sherlockx would no doubt appreciate. :) According to the link above, the balcony also appeared in 2 muppet movies: It's a Very Muppet Christmas Movie (2002) and The Muppets (2011). That explains my answers to questions 12, 38 and 48.
  • I was thrown by the question about animation. The muppets are puppets, and so their tv show and movies are not what we normally think of as live action. But nor are they what would normally be called animation (based a series of still shots of drawings, models, computer images, etc.). Furthermore, though I'm not sure, I suspect some animation may have been used in the movies. That explains my answers to questions 7, 18 and 46.
  • Neither the Muppet Show nor the movies make it clear where exactly the Muppet Theatre is located - although it's plainly on earth. (Pigs in Space, anyone?) A search of the internet reveals suppositions ranging from New York to California to New England to the UK. That explains my answers to questions 20, 21 and 54.
  • Is a theatre balcony a "room"? That's debatable, which explains my answer to question 53.
