Like all major celebrities seem to be doing this week, Kermit the Frog took the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Kermit was challenged by WWE's Vince McMahon (and many a Muppet fan), and took to the challenge bravely and coldly. Watch below!



Cookie Monster also took the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, and he in turn challenged Muppet fan MarshallGrover, who is a YouTube account that posts a ton of vintage Sesame Street clips. Watch Cookie Monster's challenge below!

Sesame Street's Bob McGrath, who is 82 years old, jumped out of an airplane recently. The video is incredible and sweet and wonderful... and so perfectly Bob. Watch it here:

Muppet performer Matt Vogel will be signing copies of Muppets Most Wanted on Blu-ray and DVD at Disney's Hollywood Studios on Monday, August 25th from 4-5pm. No word on if Constantine will be in attendance at the signing, but this pretty much confirms his appearance at the special "Villains Unleashed" event this weekend.

Finally, in celebration of The Muppet Mindset's Fifth Anniversary, the owner/operator/founder Ryan Dosier was interviewed by our friend J.D. Hansel on his Muppet fan podcast 11 Point Collar. Be sure to listen to the fun and get in early for The Muppet Mindset's fifth anniversary celebration!
