This list is a "Mupp-ography." Theses are all the occurrences I can
document of muppets. Much of this information was compiled by myself
(Bill Sherman) some of which actually originated in the book "Of Muppets &
Men: The Makeing of the Muppet Show." I gathered more information just
by taping and archiving several shows. After posting my original list
to usenet, I received several more pieces of information, and the donators
are listed at the beginning.
Several refinements have taken place since my last posting of the list.
I've moved all episode lists to the end of the post, and the episode
lists of "The Jim Henson Hour," "The Storyteller" and "Mother Goose
Stories" have been enhanced. Also, the television specials list is
much more complete and has the date and network that these specials
first aired on. A lot of the new information come from the publisher
of the MUPPETZine, Danny Horn, who recently made a pilgrimage to the
Museum of Television and Radio.
This list will now be archived at the ftp site cathouse.aiss.uiuc.edu
in the directory /misc/fun/television/muppets. This will also be where
the FAQ is archived, as well as other typical stuff found at ftp sites.
