I mis those forgotten small part Muppets like....

Rowlf-He gets three lines in the movie, one of them is him humming and one is him saying "Aaaugghh" when Pepe says they're having bolgna.

Dr.Teeth-Only line in movie is "Shalom!"

Janice-no lines.

Floyd-only lines, "Hmmmmm, lala....(Animal goes in bathroom before him) Hey man! I was here first!"

Zoot-no lines

Scooter-only line, "Gonzo T-shirts. Get your Gonzo T-shirts here. Only ten bucks!"

Lew Zealand-Sings in front of mirror with fish.

Crazy Harry-Seen screaming when ship lands.

They weren't in enough of the movie!!!!!

They weren't small.

Remember the Muppet Show days, they were all HUGE parts of the Muppets.

What I wanna know is what the Muppets would be like today if Jim Henson hadn't of died, just imagine how huge they would be today. I wish I could...

well rawlf the dog got pulled and not used that much when Jim henson died, because rawlf was actually the first muppet that was made, and they stopped using him to honor Jim's death.

Yeah I know.

But I don't see how not using it is honoring it, doesn't using it honor it?

well i guess it showed that not only did jim henson films suffer a loss but also the muppets.

I bet Henson would have wanted Rowlf to go on the way he had been. He wouldn't want his signature puppet to go up in flames simply because he could no longer perform him.

From the movie's Trivia section:
"The first Muppet film since the deaths of Jim Henson and Richard Hunt to have their signature Muppet characters Rowlf, Scooter and Dr. Teeth to talk. Rowlf's only line in the film is at the breakfast table, when he finds out they're having bologna, he says "Awwww!". Dr. Teeth's only line is on the way to a barmitzvah, he says "Shalom!". Scooter was voiced by Richard's brother 'Adam Hunt' and his line was "Get your Gonzo T-shirts. Only ten bucks!"."

Supermodels...spoiled stupid little stick figures mit poofy lips who sink only about zemselves.

Did Wayne and Wendy ever do anything in ths film? They were my favourite characters on the Muppet Show with Kermit, Gonzo & Sweetums.

The problem was that the people who did these voices had died.
