Wouldn’t you like to spend every day of 2008 looking at pictures of Muppets? I know I would. Though you’ve got to have a little variety in your life. That’s why there’s brand new calendars coming out for 2008 featuring all things Muppety. Which is good, because I doubt my 2007 calendars will stand the test of time.
First up is your basic Muppet calendar, featuring everyone’s favorite character poses. You’ve got your embarassed Fozzie, Animal wearing sunglasses, flathead Kermit, and “I dunno” Statler and Waldorf. While there’s nothing new or original, it’s still not a bad looking calendar. But for the Muppet fan, it just might not be enough.
There’s also a Fraggle Rock calendar coming out. We haven’t seen the art yet, but it’s a good guess that it’ll be more production promos from the show. Wouldn’t it be nice to have some new Fraggle art? Ah well, beggars can’t be choosers. Especially when Mokey actually makes it onto the cover this time.
Last up is the page-a-day calendar featuring the Muppets. To my knowledge, there’s never been a page-a-day calendar with Muppets before. So, for the Muppet fan who just can’t commit to one picture for 30 days, now you can have a fresh pictures, trivia, jokes and quotes every single day. Unless you’re lazy like me, and then you can see the same day for about 2 weeks at a time. Meanwhile, your boss will wonder why you haven’t shown up to work.
No word on Sesame Street calendars yet, but if history proves right, we’re bound to get one or two for next year. The above three calendars are now available for preorder on Amazon.com.
