    Oscar parody shirt on Threadless

    Threadless is now selling a shirt featuring Oscar warding off a hobo from rummaging through his can. Although I think this is completely unintentional, the hobo looks a lot like Carroll Spinney. For that reason, I totally geeked out on this, which is something I don't do very often. For...

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    Referring back to the flyer, it states the following: "Relocation not required, but you must be able to travel." Todd has told many of us several times during our conversations with him that these auditions are not for any shows at the theme parks. With that said, these auditions are not...

    Sweetums in Muppet Vision 3D

    Jerry didn't perform in Muppet*Vision. I believe Floyd is in the background in one scene of the main show (riding through on a bike w/ Janice). Jerry may have done some work in the pre-show, but I don't believe he was there either. He did do voice work for "Muppets on Location" and "Here...

    It looks like it was resized just enough to make the text illegible. My offer still stands for those interested. But please email me directly instead of posting your address in this thread. Chris

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    Actually these are open call auditions. Once you go through the open call, they will have call-backs for those that they are interested in. It will be a series of auditions, but the first one is open call. So if you are interested, you should call the number and leave your contact info...

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    The audition is being hosted by the Muppet Holding Co. for the Muppets. Not sure if Children's Television Workshop is involved or not. When you call, it does specify that you need to be at least 18. You can also leave a message at the number and they will call you back. Chris

    So you want to audition for the Muppets?

    Question gets asked all of the time, but no one really ever has a definitive answer as to when or how... until now. Guess what? Auditions are happening in New York, Los Angeles, and Toronto soon! Heard about it last night and I was given a flyer. It says: The Most Sensational...

    Interview with Ashanti

    or she may have actually said that. Her next answer includes the phrase "They had to hold me on these big human life size skateboards" Aren't skateboards typically "human life size"? Tony Hawk isn't a wee little bird ;-) Of course she was referring to platforms on wheels, but her...

    Custom Muppet Shirts & Stuff

    Did a search and didn't see this mentioned. Disney Inkshop has Muppet images available now. If you haven't visited this site before, it allows someone to create their own t-shirt, sweatshirt, hoodie, ringer, etc. There are 60 images available. Most are Kermit, but there is a pretty good...

    Gaffer the Cat on CATS?

    I'm pretty sure that that was from a Muppet Magazine spread that featured CATS. I've seen that before and I'm almost positive that that is where that is from.

    Jim & Kermit at 1987 Macy's Parade

    it is a great site. I think I came across it from some Mp3 blog or pop culture blog. I initially started watching all of the 80's Christmas commercials and I kept messing around on there till I came across that gem. It's little treasures like that that define the true meaning of the...

    Jim & Kermit at 1987 Macy's Parade

    I just came across this little treat for from way back when. It is a 90 second clip of Williard Scott, Jim, Kermit, and some other guy. This guy is giving Jim and Kermit an award. I couldn't tell what the award was for, but I think it is an award for just being Jim and Kermit. The award...

    The Muppet Movie Ride

    Foz, JH got the majority of his material for that article from WDW's Cast Newsletter called "Eyes & Ears" & a few company reports. It is very true that a lot of what appears on his site is his opinion or speculation (and in the case of some of the WDW College Program postings, completely...

    I may get more. I may get more and if I do, I'll post another one up here. I've had my account for a little more than a week and have already been sent 12 invitations. From what I've read, Google is sending the invites out like crazy. That's a pretty good indication that the public launch...
