    The haiku thread

    Kermit says, "Hi-ho!" Fozzie has "Wocka-wocka." No catch phrase for Rowlf. :sympathy:

    Underrated TV

    Arrested Development and NewsRadio are two of my very favorite shows, but they were completely overlooked while they were on. NewsRadio has a manic, fat-paced, silly brand of humor comparable to the Muppet Show's antics. Arrested Development was just far too brilliant for television, and...

    Muppet Show bandleader Jack Parnell dies at 87

    This is very, very sad news. And so soon after the loss of Sesame Street musician Danny Epstein. Goodbye, Mr. Parnell. I've always appreciated your work with the Muppets. Where would the show have been without your musical ability?

    Toy Story 3

    SPOILER MODE ON (highlight for response): The garbage man was Sid from the first Toy Story as evidenced by his shirt and the end credits... so... yeah... Lotso's in pretty deep.

    My Favorite Muppet Movie On-Set Photo!

    Well, the one looks like Richard Hunt's hair, though I kind of doubt he would be right-handing for someone who was essentially a right-hander at the time. Michael Earl's page says that he was (likely) performing Zoot and Animal during the scene. "The Muppet Movie - Additional Muppet...

    My Favorite Muppet Movie On-Set Photo!

    Very cool. Am I right in guessing that that's Steve Whitmire and Richard Hunt under Fozzie?

    eFX's Rizzo Thread

    I disagree. Beaker and Animal, despite being fairly one-note characters (or perhaps because of) have kind of eclipsed every other Muppet in popularity with the exception of Kermit, Piggy, and perhaps Gonzo. I see more Animal merchandise than almost any other character, except Kermit. Beaker has...

    The Brand New Ask Jim Lewis Thread

    Thanks Jim! Oh, and I should correct myself. I said that the stamps were around less than a year. According to Muppet Wiki, they were around just over 3 months! :eek:

    This surely is nice. You wrote a lovely haiku. And now so have I. :p

    The Brand New Ask Jim Lewis Thread

    Hiya, Jim! I own two sheets of the Jim Henson and Muppet stamps. I was wondering if you wrote the little comments from the Muppets on the back of that. Additionally, what was your opinion of the stamps? It was kind of disappointing to see they were available less than a year because of the...

    Disney Takes Muppet Script Through Pixar

    The preproduction process is very similair. Everything about a Muppet movie has to planned out, the same as with animation. Everything has to be storyboarded. But it's very exciting to hear that Pixar's story people are taking a gander at this. Very, very cool.

    You don't? :confused: :p

    For those who like Movie Musicals

    Digging up this thread because I was thinking of some of my favorite musical moments from television: "Brotherhood of Man" - The Drew Carey Show: Not just because it's a great song and a great musical, but they do really well in this rendition. A really good performance! "Life Has Been...

    Uncle Deadly WILL be in the New Muppet movie!

    Nope. The Muppet Mindset's interview with Bill Barretta cleared that up. He confirmed that Lew is now performed by Matt Vogel. In fact, Matt has now performed Lew more than Bill ever did... which was once... eight years ago. :p

    Weinstein rolls with Fraggle Rock movie

    Also, I really don't like the advice he took from Seth Green. You don't attract the fans by referencing other stuff from the series. You attract the fans by telling a good story and staying true to the show's roots and true to the characters. I'm not going to sit in a theater thinking "Oooh! Red...
