Wow, first I heard of it. Jim auditioned and hired me at 117 almost 24 years ago. It was the heart of the company for decades. It's sad to see it go... Karen :excited: (inappropriately happy Red smilie)

I'm out of the state for only a few days and this is what happens? (Mike, sweetie, we'll talk when I get home...) :excited: Karen

CORRECTION Whoops - Mike's online interview looks like it's actually SATURDAY night, May 31, not Sunday. Here's the Radio Sci-Fi link: http://www.radioscifi.net/html/events.php Hey Super Scooter - Mike's actually taken the Star Tours ride with fans several times over the years - only...

Hi folks, My husband Mike Quinn is appearing at the Disney MGM Star Wars Weekend in Orlando this weekend, May 30 - June 1. He puppeteered Lando Calrissian's alien co-pilot Nein Nunb in Return of the Jedi. Mike will be riding in the parade, doing interviews and signing autographs every day...

Hi Anders, We used lots of different things for eyes when we had our own puppet company in England. Fishing floats are good to use. They're sturdy and come in lots of different sizes. They take a lot of preparation though, sanding all over so paint will adhere, filling and sanding the joints...

Hi folks! My husband, puppeteer Mike Quinn (aka Lando Calrissian's alien co-pilot Nien Nunb in Return of the Jedi) will be signing Star Wars autographs at the WonderCon show in San Francisco April 26 and 27. (I might be there for part of the time on Sunday.)...

Hey, does anyone remember seeing a Swedish Chef sketch about ratatouille? It would have been in the fifth season of the Muppet Show. We shot it as a last minute filler and I had a little part in it. I don't remember ever seeing it in a show and I'm sure I've seen them all, though not all the...

If I remember correctly, the ending was originally was only Boober. Then we were all asked to have our own characters record alternate endings sometime later, even though we didn't particularly feel that was necessary. I can't even remember what I did for Red. I never realized any of them were...

Wow! Thanks to everyone for all the appreciative words. I told the Fraggle cast and crew to check out the messages here and look at Jamie's glorious Fraggle menu! Wonderful work Jamie! I'm glad people are getting a chance to enjoy it a bit longer. Everyone who worked on Fraggle Rock is...

Hi folks! Today marks twenty years since Fraggle Rock first started airing. It premiered on HBO in the United States on January 10th, 1983. Big thanks to Fraggle fans all around the world for your appreciation of the show! Wahoo! Karen Prell and RED!!!

I would have voted for the Marley and Marley menu, but our Christmas was so crazy I forgot. Great work Jamie! Karen

Thanks for the notice! I saw a tape of this show recently and it's really fun. I believe Jerry Juhl is one of the puppeteers in the Reindeer sketch and if I remember correctly the Monster song includes the old dark green Grover puppet, pre-Sesame Street. Definitely worth checking out...

Hi Jake, No, not a dumb question at all. I'm getting to know more people at Tippetts and they're really friendly there. I wonder who it is that your great aunt knows? Maybe I already know them! Now, here's a dumb question - do they still not let you pump your own gas in Oregon? I was...

Wow! I just saw the Marley menu today and I love it! Well done Jamie! Can't wait to see what else you do. Karen
