The Canon Conundrum: Muppets Edition

You thought this series was long done, didn't you?



Let's get right to it: the Muppets exist in the Club Penguin universe.  This is due entirely to the fact that the Muppets - not penguin versions of themselves, not just costumes - have traveled to Club Penguin to perform a show, hang out with penguins, and enlist the help of you.

The fact that countries appear in Club Penguin offers a far more interesting question.  Does this, along with the flag pins, confirm that we live on the same planet as Club Penguin?  And if that's so, then how do you explain the fictional solar system seen at last year's Marvel Takeover?  And, if that proves Club Penguin is on another planet, then why does the planet it resides on (which we clearly saw at the Star Wars Takeover) - along with the continents on it - bare a striking resemblance to our real Earth?  Did the Muppets travel across space to get to whatever planet Club Penguin is on?  Is Club Penguin in another galaxy, on another Earth, much like our own, where things like puffles and talking penguins and polar bears exist?  Also, how can more recently formed countries exist if the Star Wars Takeover took place long, long ago?  Does the "galaxy far, far away" part indeed prove that Club Penguin is not in our solar system?




(Do you see why I call this a conundrum?)

It turns out that the Muppets were a good fit for Club Penguin.  Both put together plots that aren't meant to make much sense.

As Billybob would say, Waddle On!
