Muppets - Viral? Well, while there aren't many leads on whats going on it looks like Disney has released some You-Tube videos featuring the classical Muppets. Looks like the lead in to a possible viral campaign (still hoping for epic Disney muppet ARG)
Video Name - User Name
Meh - heckleu247
Hrmph - heckleu247
Mmph - heckleu247
Blech - heckleu247
Stars and Stripes Forever - Patrioticeagle
Ode to Joy -meepmeepmeepow
Habanera -deumnborkborkbork
Classical Chickens -weirdowhatever
As a child of the 80s I hope this turns into a viral campaign at least.
((Wow, its been a long time since I posted))

I could have sworn the beaker ode to joy one was fromt he waiting room outside of the muppet ride in disney world {there are multiple screens which the use as seperate parts of the room, they can walk in & out of, sometimes making video clones of a sort}....
same with classical chicken with Gonzo...
obviously, in both these cases, they are changed slightly from original for the "Web" but i SWEAR they are similar to what i saw outside the ride.
ETA: Could it have anything do to with: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_DC:_Almost_Live
http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Studio_DC:_Almost_Live%21
Also, this seems to have every bit of info needed {it is a wiki} except WHY it happened: http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Virmup

I didn't notice that; all the videos are actual responses to other videos on YouTube.
This would be awesome if it were true!

From what I read, it was to promote that new show on the Disney Channel. I want a new Muppet show, dangit! Not a Muppet and Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus show.

So long as Jim Henson remains dead, it won't be the same.

SPEC: John Crichton uses wormhole technology to travel back in time to stop Henson's death.
