Les Bébés Muppet

I used to watch this, every Saturday morning on CBS. It was a great show to see them as babies. I really liked Kermit, Piggy, Fozzie, and Rowlf. I even liked the episodes, I liked the one when Scooter got big, when he ate Nanny's secret recipe!, I like them all anyways!

Muppet Babies is, in my opinion, one of the best cartoon shows ever made, and when I was a child, it was definitely my favorite. Every episode was full of humor, imagination, wonderful music, and so much more. Most importantly, Muppet Babies taught children who watched it important moral and social values. Jim Henson combined the humor of his Muppet characters with the innocence of childhood and succeeded in creating a sensational children's program. I can only hope that if and when I do have kids of my own, they grow up watching a rewarding and heartwarming show like this one.

I remember watching Muppet Babies when I was a kid and loved it. Used to get up early on a Saturday morning especially to see it. It was great. You saw all our favourite Muppets as they were at nursery and I followed their adventures avidly. They were cute and cuddly (just like I was!!) and some of the episodes I remember were quite funny, especially Gonzo.

The style of the Muppet babies was accurate in so far as it followed that which was first shown in the Muppet show... the live action baby Rowlf in one episode of the show was a match for the cartoon baby Rowlf in Muppet Babies. So there was some degree of continuity. It was in cartoon format and remember thinking at the time it would be good as a puppet (or Muppet) show, but I suppose that won't happen now. Bring it out on Region 1 DVD ... PLEASE.

This is without a doubt one of the greatest cartoon shows ever put on TV. The '80s were chock full of great cartoons, but this one (along with The Raccoons) was the best one of all. I'm a huge fan of the Muppets, and I think I love the Muppet Babies even more than the grown-up Muppets! All the characters on this show were great. It's one of the few shows where I don't hate one of the characters. My favorites are Baby Beaker and Baby Gonzo. I love Beaker because he's actually my favorite Muppet period, and because on this show he was cute beyond belief! His 'meep meep' voice was even cuter! And I love Baby Gonzo because I can relate to him so much. I've always been bit of an outsider who likes to do her own thing.

So all in all, this cartoon is a sure-fire classic, and should be put back on TV!

My rating: 11/10

I remember countless afternoons watching the Muppet Babies, and it brings back some of my fondest memories. The show really taught me about the importance of imagination, which I remember my grandparents telling my mom ,was a word my brother and I would always use. Like when we would build forts from couch cushions, blankets, and pillows. Like when we would play 'Star Wars' just like Gonzo and Kermit would (I was Gonzo). I remember my eager anticipation for newer episodes or ones that I hadn't seen before.

It saddens me to think about a future generation that will grow up without the wonderful creativity and warmth of Jim Henson.
