I think this is a great idea - maybe Kermitage is planning this, with the access Michael has to the archives it might be easy. I hope it comes about somewhere someday !

Cory,

This is something I've wanted to do since the site began as well. We announced that a profiles section is being worked on a few weeks ago. The character profiles will develop and roll-out in correspondence with our Muppet Show episode guides.

Your wish will probably come true. It could take five years for a site to do this, though...these people have lives, you know. If they had no jobs and nothing to do, maybe they could...but then they couldn't afford high-speed Internet, a personal server, and a fast computer.

Muppet Database

Hey guys, I heard that you're trying to get an ultimate Muppet Database as part of this website. I agree that such a section would be immensely invaluable. To that end, I have the beginnings of a massive character list compiled of all the characters I remember of from my days of watching Muppet programming. Because its a total of almost 290 characters, I'm not sure if I should post it or not, and of course some names need a little bit of correction. Should I go ahead and post my character list or not? BTW: Everybody please go and check out a thread called The Count's Grand Muppet Party in the General Discussion section of the forums. I really need everybody's help and suggestions to make this thread flourish.
Have a great summer, The Count.

oh i know:wink: the old henson.com had an obscure one(which even said sam the eagle has kids?) my diea was that different people be assigned to different canon related lists, and then when they are done, to all be converged on some massive database. ie: some take on fr, tms of course...but also jhh, muppets tonight!, sesame street, etc.

Thats a cool idea Cory - as long as it all ended up in the same format and layout. If someone wanted to start it up it might be a good idea for a 'database' site of it's own although seems a few websites are announcing 'plans' to do this kinda thing already. I think an info resource of shows and characters (independant of any fan site) is much needed - i guess that should really be something that Henson do as part of Henson.com but seeing as they aren't ...........

Are you happy now? :wink: Although it's not totally complete, there is much more to come including individual bios for major characters, style sheet pictures and more!

www.kermitage.com will have similiar character and ep guides to each of the major shows and specials alongside detailed information on all aspects of the Muppets and Henson as well as, of course, the Collectibles guide.
