So how do you plan to translate it? Will you be dubbing DVDs or have a website where we can download subtittle episodes or will you just do it in script form?
Just saw it will be guide form.Thanks.

I've watched the video. And in one scene (towards the beginning of the video approx 3mins 38-41 seconds in, when the guest star is about to walk thru two yellow swing doors. You can see the puppeteers head (follically challenged puppeteer). Then again at 7 mins 23sec (approx.). These are just two examples from the Muppets TV - 02 - Semoun & Sinclar esp. gotta love that.

Guide Form - Explanation

So how do you plan to translate it? Will you be dubbing DVDs or have a website where we can download subtittle episodes or will you just do it in script form?

To elaborate a bit, I thought I'd start by translating the script, broken down scene by scene so that the less French capable audience would be able to follow along. Then, add cultural notes and explanations.
Finally, if someone wanted to take this and (probably re-work the script a bit) either subtitle or dub it, that'd be up to them. I'd be glad to help, but as it stands, I don't know oodles about video-editing, though I could do it, given the time and enough help with the voices. (I can do a passable Kermit, and that's about it.)

So, I think I'll start with the script in French, then translate. After that, we'll see.

Jim and co were just as guilty of that at times, especially on the early stuff.

I can not believe this, I am both happy yet jealous and a bit angered at the same time. I'm glad the French get a new Muppet tv show (after all it has been French people doing all the work to get this show running) but had it been coming out in English we would have all been so excited the past couple of months and from what i'm reading and the picture on the Muppet Wiki it does look like a good show.

Disney are dumb, yes Disney are dumb whoever thinks otherwise then so be it but in my opinion Disney have no idea what there doing with the Muppets. I've been waiting patiently, hoping that they'll prove me wrong and hopefully one day they will but i've had enough of waiting.

Sorry about this little outburst, this is all coming from me being really jealous that there's finally something new and cool being done with the Muppets and even if I get to see it, I wont even understand it.

What a dissapointment

Though I can't say I would have rather them have not done it at all than doing it in French, so I am happy at least something has been done with them

I agree I would love to see the all new muppet show over here in america.

I think we all would but only with a good writter for sure!

 

[Barry Lee]

Yeah, right now I don't think we're ready for a TMS until we find good writers who actually KNOW the Muppets!
