Muppet Babies/WMG

In this world, Your Mind Makes It Real. Literally.

In several episodes, the babies say something like, "Where are we?" "We're in X's imagination." Somehow, they can see something they're not imagining but someone else is and take each other "into" someone else's imagination. For example, Gonzo once comments how it's interesting Animal always thinks in crayon. And the world the kids explore in that instance looks exactly as Animal imagines it, not how they would each imagine it, as you would expect if it was all in their heads. The dangers in all the fantasy sequences are treated as if they're real and need to be thwarted without merely imagining they're not there anymore or at least imagining a simple solution. Things happen none of the kids expect, or all the kids can see what one person "imagined." Plus, several individual instances point to the things the kids "imagine" really happening.

• In the episode about Beaker's fear of the dark, Kermit says, "The monster's in Beaker's mind. Only he can stop it!"
• In "Back to the Nursery," the babies imagine that a time machine takes them back in time. When they return, Gonzo sees their time machine in a real picture in Nanny's real yearbook that wasn't there before.

Scooter: But... that's impossible.
Gonzo: Nothing's impossible if you use your imagination.

• In "The Daily Muppet," Piggy feels the couch shake when the aliens Gonzo imagined run back to Mars under it, but she assumed it was caused by Gonzo, who was nowhere near the couch. How could she have felt something Gonzo imagined without even knowing it was there?
• Gonzo has no idea what's going to appear in the closet whenever he opens it. If he was just pretending to see Storm Troopers firing at him, he would at least know they would be there.
• In "Skeeter and the Wolf," even after the fantasy is over and the kids are talking with Nanny, they seem to fully believe that the wolf from their fantasy really ate Fozzie.
• Finally, there's the fact that either: this entire version of the universe only exists because Miss Piggy imagined it in one of the Muppet movies, or the live-action Muppet universe exists because Kermit imagined it in "When You Wish Upon A Muppet."
  • Recursion Is Occuring.

...which would make Miss Piggy this franchise's Reincarnation of Haruhi Suzumiya.

Kermit, obviously, is Kyon.

Skeeter died tragically between the events of Muppet Babies and The Muppet Show.

• Robot Chicken managed to one up this WMG by having a sketch where Kermit drowned Skeeter after she beat up Fozzie, Gonzo, and Piggy.
  • Then somebody starts murdering them. Turns out Scooter is dressing up as Skeeter to commit the murders.
    • Then Camilla murders him in revenge for Gonzo's murder. Fun times.
• Jossed by The Muppet Show Comic Book, if you consider that canon.
