I'm a bit fuzzy on that, actually. -- The Muppets DVD, looking forward to it.

Well, this seemed like a good place for a good Scaper Browncoat to make his first post.

Muppets, Space Western, Firefly, Farscape. Yup, all good.

What bugs me is, I can't think of who should play Saffron / Brigit / Yolanda.

Sam the Eagle as Jubal Early. Or maybe Gonzo as Jubal Early. They're both kinda out-there, but not in the scarily bad way Jubal Early is.

Gonzo in drag as River? Or Beaker in drag as River? Either way.

The only problem with any muppet as Mal is his "aw, natural" ;) time in "Trash." Nude Muppets? Hey, it might happen. Wasn't Ernie in the tub with his rubber ducky? (Be careful on that vowel, sonny.) I'll totally ignore if they're anatomically correct Muppets. Totally.

Oh! I know, a disaffected Scooter as Tracey from "The Message."

-----

Some ideas for the Sesame Street Muppets as Firefly cast:

Mal = Kermit
Zoe = Miss Piggy on hiatus.
Wash = Big Bird, no question.
Inara = The Count, in drag.
Kaylee = Ernie, in drag. :rollseyes:
Jayne = Oscar the Grouch.
Vera = Oscar's Trash Can.
Simon = Bert, and is he implying something?
River = Grover, in drag. (Sorry, Grover.)
Book = Mr. Hooper Bob(?)

This leaves the Cookie Monster, who must have a part.

Also need parts for:

Solomon Grundy (Not gonna ask what he was doin' in that tub all that time....)

Snuffleupagus (just because);

Out the Airlock for:
Elmo. Sorry, Elmo, but I'm old-school Sesame Street. Grover rules, Elmo drools.

How about the Pigs In Space? Are they the Reavers? (Bacon! Bacon, bacon, bacon! You're bacon!) Bwahahaha!

-- Great thread!

I just got a crazy idea. we should strap one of them to the cry baby. I'm thinking Beaker, because he's always getting put into harm's way.

Welcome!!! I am a Browncoat Scaper. (I'm almost finished with season 4 on Netflix.)

Exactly! Make yourself at home around here. We're a friendly and slightly off-kilter bunch. (And I'll be more than happy to talk Farscape if you want to. )

Hehe, perfect! And thanks to you I've been watching my season 1 Muppet Show DVDs and seeing Scooter as Tracey.

Considering the Awesome work done by COSMICFUGITIVE

Have any other artists tried their hand at the Muppets Firefly creation. Once again I list my preferences, but there are alot of great ideas throughout this thread.

Kermit as Mal
Animal as Jayne
Piggy as Inara
Fozzie as Wash
Janice as Zoe
Rolf as Book
Gonzo as Simon
& a crazy chicken as River

and Jewel as Kaylee - cuz you always gotta have a human guest for the show.

Well I got sent over here so I thought I would comply and do a couple of quick ones!





I figured any Rolf/ Book crossover would constitute reading a Bible and subsequently eating it (thus the half eaten book)

Nothing much but enjoy :)

Hey guys,

I thought I'd post a quick message to say that I'm working on more Muppet Firefly pics.

The next batch of muppets to get the Firefly treatment will be Dr Bunsen, Miss Piggy and Gonzo. Hope to have them posted on line soon.

@Stillshiny: I'm currently working on a pic of Kermit wearing the brown coat too.

- Keep flyin'!
