The Great Muppet Caper (1981)
took me a minute. The way fozzy keeps dragging the case, it looks like he's still arriving when the others have stopped (and are now the muppeteers under the sidewalk set)
The absolute art and matching that goes into making a gag believable ♥️
i enjoy that every single human’s reaction to penguin is unrestrained delight
And penguins lack large terrestrial predators, so their reaction to humans tends to be, “HELLO STRANGE GIANT PENGUINS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DO YOU HAVE ANY FISH?”
I will reblog this on my deathbed.
Please let him science 🐧
i think at least half of the million reblabs on this are from me
There is an international treaty that says we’re supposed to stay 6m away from penguins, and it’s really difficult because no one told the penguins, and they all desperately want to wander up and say hi.
I think we should rewrite this treaty and let the penguins have a say.
Thanks to this post I am now actively thinking about the Machine for Picking Up Girls (I am always thinking about the Machine for Picking Up Girls), so now we must have
Girl Genius Characters React to Being Picked Up By the Machine for Picking Up Girls:
Agatha: it's a big clank, are you kidding? She's delighted. She has 12 suggestions for Spontaneously Improving it that she's going to try out right now, and then she's going to conduct a controlled trial of its upgraded ability to Pick Up Girls. For the rest of this post, assume that Agatha is operating the Machine.
Zeetha: spontaneously invents the Fastball Special. Is removed from the experiment pool until the next time we need someone to do that, which will probably be, y'know, tomorrow or something. Stuff happens.
Violetta: tolerates it once for Agatha's sake. Is unfindable for the rest of the trial.
Bang: if she sees that clank again she'll murder it and Gil.
Colette: she'll take five of them, but Gil will never hear the end of it. Spontaneous Improvements are made.
Seffie: not sure why she's tolerating it. [Colette is operating the Machine, is why.] You can put her down now.
Sleipnir: "Hey Agatha, I can see your house from up here!"
Larana: already best friends with Zoing.
Trelawney: thinks it's hilarious. Comparing notes with Zeetha about the Fastball Special ideas.
Neena: can she have one for her mom's next party, and also can she take it on expeditions. Also spontaneously best friends with Zoing.
Albia: we didn't try this.
Francisca Monahan: talked about rats until the experimenters went away. File under "unsuccessful", and possibly under "god-queen influence used".
Prrrriti M'reau: absolutely not. Experiment cancelled on account of Angry Cat Glare.
Zola: I think we should do this in canon, actually.
Lucrezia: I don't think we should do this in any context, actually.
Mamma Gkika: has a VERY scandalous story about picking up girls. Experiment paused while everyone recovers. Or encodes the notes they were taking during the story. Whichever.
Hexalina Snaug: this sort of thing happens to minions. Resigned. That really could have been more traumatizing though. Would they like suggestions?
Otilia: puts the Machine and Gil in time-out. [Zoing is innocent, obviously.]
Tinka, Moxana, Orotine, and possibly Prende: all mysteriously missing from the subject pool, and nobody knows where Tarvek went either.
Lilith Clay: tolerates this with dignity, but only because it's Agatha doing it.
Maxinia Clay: the Machine is NOT ALLOWED to pick up the baby unless the baby SPECIFICALLY wants to be picked up. [The baby absolutely wants to be picked up. It is very gentle with her. She is less gentle with it. Experiment paused for repairs and Spontaneous Improvements.]
Zulenna: NO.
Jenka: we forgot to warn Füst. Repairs.
Lumi von Mekkhan: says "Wheeeeeee!" a lot. Spontaneous Improvements.
Captain Oana Grosu: is definitely going to tell some pirates she knows about this. Are there spares of this machine by the way.
Captain Jeanne the Europan of Piratical Descent: has SO MANY QUESTIONS.
Pix: can you do that again but on cue this time.
Zantabraxus: NO. [but would like to see the Fastball Special again]
Professoressa Kaja: this is how the story knows about the Machine for Picking Up Girls. Oops.
These are all sublime, but one amendment: Tarvek would like to be unfindable, but Violetta has the same training and she’s not having it. If she has to do it, he has to do it. If Tarvek protests that he doesn’t meet the requirements, Gil and Trelawney will both remind him of the precedent for his being a princess. Close enough!
you have this superpower! BUT you have this side-effect
is it worth it?
yes!!
the side effect is bad but ITS WORTH IT
meh it's okay
the side effect makes it unusable/not worth it
Results/option I didn't think of
So as Girl Genius inches ever closer to catching up to that glimpse of the future we got back when…
…you know what I think would be really funny?
Gil is separated from the rest of the group, perhaps in a search for arcane components for the time machine. We follow other characters and don’t see him for a while.
And then he stalks back into the scene, wearing nothing but a skimpy set of Geisterdamen armor. He is accompanied by a couple of Geisterdamen and a very cheerful Othar Trygvassen.
Agatha: What—
Gil, through gritted teeth: I don’t want to talk about it.
Bang: This is the best day of my life.
Tarvek: I can’t believe I agree with Dupree about something, but—
Gil: Sturmvoraus, I will set all your waistcoats on fire—
Moloch: Uh-huh, whatever. You get the stuff?
And the scene proceeds from there, and we just never find out why Gil is dressed like that. 😁😁😁
Tarvek + Castle Wulfenbach, which is definitely not the first place in his life that he found real safety, affection, autonomy, and public recognition.

my fav relationship ship dynamic is where it doesn't matter if you call it platonic or romantic or queerplatonic because they always act the same in every type of relationship. and the way they act? fucking weird.

NCUTI GATWA in THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST (2025)
i watched this show in part to find out how and where they fit this sequence in.
they didn’t. they just do this first, before launching into a delightfully over-the-top but broadly conventional production of The Importance of Being Earnest. gatwa wears fabulous suits for the rest of the show.
I have TECHNICALLY heard of worse recruitment pitches, but not by a lot.
Amazing Spiderman 354
Rich was recruited into the New Warriors by getting thrown off a roof. At least Midnight is the one doing the falling.
My friend has just informed me that there was a kids show he watched as a kid where there was a puppet called Captain Scarlett and the premise was about a guy who can’t die because aliens and because he was a puppet they just did practical deaths every episode and omg it’s like Xie Lian death montage. I can’t stop picturing it this poor red puppet.
This was one of @petermorwood 's FAVORITE Gerry Anderson shows. Its drumbeat "sting" was one of his phone's "alert" ringtones.
It made him laugh every time somebody trying to tell him that UK children's TV was less violent than adult TV in the US. "Are you kidding?" he would crow. "You literally cannot start an episode of Captain Scarlet without somebody dying in a very visual and graphic way!!"
...And this is true. Honestly, if somebody on YouTube hasn't assembled a video of "All The Deaths In Captain Scarlet Before The Teaser," I honestly can't imagine why. 😏
Oh, that’s why Joss was watching Captain Scarlet in Space Cops!
…Finally. 😄
do you fuckin ever, miles
