Audio problem: When Doc Hopper drives up to the town and some of the muppets are in the bus, Fozzie says "oh no" but it is Scooter's mouth that moves.
Audio problem: When Gonzo is flying over the countryside with the balloons, his mouth never moves during all his lines except "Ah this is the place to be. Whoopeeeeee!"
Plot hole: How did Professor Krassman get shocked into being a frog? The electronic device doesn't even touch his head.
Question: In the middle of Kermit and Fozzy's song "Movin' Right Along", they meet up with Big Bird who says, "I'm on my way to New York City". Is this meeting on another movie starring Big Bird or am I sadly mistaken?

Answer: This is Big Bird's only movie where he says this line. It is a reference to his going to New York hoping to get a role on Public Television (the station that created "Sesame Street") This is verified in TV interviews with the late Jim Henson and on Wikipedia.
