    Your Thoughts: Emmet Otter Musical

    Wow, that's pretty impressive since both of those are pretty big shows... What a charming theater. I tried to admire their two Tony awards but my daughter had disappeared around the corner and I didn't fancy hearing anything go "crash-tinkle-tinkle". One other thing, the merchandise (while...

    Your Thoughts: Emmet Otter Musical

    My review and experience It's a tad long and I tend to use a few sweary words on my blog, so please excuse both facts... But here are my review, thoughts, and experiences on going to opening night.

    Your Thoughts: Studio DC Hosted by Dylan and Cole Sprouse

    Studio DC Almost Live That was by far the worst thing ever done with the Muppet characters ever. No wait, their appearance on the Funniest Home Videos may take that title. Disney doesn't know what the **** to do with them and it's obvious they really don't care. The writing was not funny, the...

    Observation about Frank

    I agree that Frank just seems like a serious guy who can be seriously funny. You don't have to be like Jim Carey or Robin Williams- always "on" to be a funny, friendly guy. He seems like the kind of guy who is well loved by those who know him really well, and perceived as a bit aloof or odd by...

    "Muppet, Music & Magic" Events

    Darn. I'm guessing I'll miss it... The only big Henson event I ever got to see was in MOMI in London. Pretty cool, but I'm always hungry for more and I would love the opportunity to meet the actual Muppeteers and other magic-makers.

    Should Sesame Street continue after season 40?

    First of all, yes it is selfish to want a decent show to be canceled simply because it's not what some people think it should be. It still holds a VERY wide audience and holds far more importance than just a TV show with all of the work Sesame Workshop does in the area of education around the...

    New Members: Please Post and Introduce Yourself

    I'm sure this is very tedious for you long-time members to see yet another newbie join the board, but I'm prone to bouts of friendliness, and what better group of people to get friendly with than a bunch of Muppet/Henson fans? My name is TeacherLady, I'm a special ed. teacher living in the...

    Should The Count be recast?

    At first I struggled with the concept of replacing characters but now that I have a daughter of my own I would hate for her to NOT have a Count at all just because I selfishly said that no one other than Jerry would do. Of course I adore the old clips far more than any of the new stuff (they...

    MuppetFest: Discuss Original and Your Dreams

    I assumed by "richest" you meant not necessarily in monetary terms... He is rich with experience and the adoration of many. Or am I being too fluffy about this?
