    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    Longer assemblage of clips from various episodes... still a work in progress. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2gigOfN7vYI I already have something planned as a cutaway to fix that one jump cut of Kermit, I just haven't gotten around to ripping the necessary footage for that yet. And I'm...

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    I had to go ahead and test that splice out. Give a listen... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGs9akSpGZo Alex

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    As a video editor, you will probably love the flash of inspiration that I just had for another possible soundbyte mashup... I think I can actually fake Kermit introducing the Muppet Show as if Jim Henson were the guest star. "It's the Muppet Show, with our very special guest star, Mr. Jim...

    What TMS episode is this from?

    I was watching 'Of Muppets and Men' again for a different project I'm researching, and found the longer version of that clip. Here's a link to it on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRkmhJRl0Ec Go to about 1:36... Jim (as Kermit): Did you know, Fozzie, that wherever the Muppet Show is...

    American Express commercial with Jim Henson

    I just found the old American Express commercial with Jim Henson yesterday on YouTube, and watched it several times. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skor2mwvAAw This one is more complete at the beginning, with Floyd's full quick closeup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23Pma0SK_y8 While this...

    Glenda Jackson 'cold open' Ep. 507

    I hate to admit it, but I was reading something last night about a particular episode of TMS from Season 5, and had absolutely zero recollection of seeing that show back in the day... the episode where Glenda Jackson and her crew shanghai the Theatre and take it out to sea as a pirate ship...

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    I will add that to my search list... didn't see an entry for it at KermiClown, and no luck on YouTube just now. But from the description it sounds pretty cool. Alex

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    Okay, I dug out my fan-made DVD of the 1985 exhibition "Art of the Muppets", which I got from KermiClownvideos.com, a site that makes me drool every time I see what's in stock. I think this one is the mother lode! Jim-as-Kermit says the following useful soundbytes: "Jim Henson, my alter...

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    Thanks for the idea... love the avatar by the way. I thought of another possible source, but I haven't had a chance to check it yet... there was a museum exhibit of the Muppets and the audio tour was narrated by Jim-as-Kermit, so it's entirely possible he'd have said the name "Jim Henson" a...

    Times that Kermit said the name Jim Henson?

    Hi ho! I am trying to think of any time that Jim-as-Kermit says the name "Jim Henson". No slight against Steve-as-Kermit, but I've got an idea for some audio I'd someday like to edit together, and so it really needs to match when spliced in with other Jim-as-Kermit soundbytes. I found...

    What TMS episode is this from?

    I had the feeling they were rehearsing lines for some sort of publicity reel or documentary about the Muppet Show being dubbed in so many languages. So Kermit would tell Fozzie that in other countries, someone else would be doing his voice in [name of language here]. Which leads in to the...

    Looking for clip - Muppets not knowing they are puppets

    Found it... episode 122 with Ethel Merman. Kermit goes to introduce Australian shadow puppeteer Richard Bradshaw, and says: "Ah, we on the Muppet Show are very interested in puppets... for some strange reason." Alex

    Passing the Torch? Or warping young minds?

    My son is eight, and we've never had cable TV his entire life. All he knows is stuff on DVD. Tonight, I realized just how much of my obsession he's absorbed by osmosis. He was playing with a Muppet Show Colorforms set, and knew the names of 11 out of 17 characters pictured. Then when I...

    Looking for clip - Muppets not knowing they are puppets

    Wow... Are you reading my mind or what? I had nearly the same idea after finally finding the Wences DVD; I want to take all the clips where they acknowledge or wrily refer to their puppetness, and string them into one documentary or something. Fozzie's "Don't look at them, it's too weird"...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Still not Muppets, but thought you might enjoy this video, made from some photos I took of a holiday diorama two years ago... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNH6FYAM8Ak Alex

    Custom Chucky and Fozzie?

    Definitely not the Fozzie and Chuckie that I was expecting to see. Alex

    Full Palisades Figure List

    I'm more of a handwritten list kind of guy myself, but here's some initial reactions... I didn't see both variants of the Holiday Rizzo listed. (Green sleeves versus Red sleeves.) Same for Frog Scout Leader Kermit, who came with two different Frog Scout pack-ins, blue and green. And I don't...

    Custom figures and dioramas

    Hey Dave, I sent you a PM the other day. For faster replies, you guys can use my regular email address, which I think I already posted in a different thread just to gauge interest in custom commissions: Ploovo241@aol.com I've got a current commission that I've been dragging my feet on...

    Janice = fragile?

    I have my original, she's still fine (knock wood), but when I needed extras for customs, I was grateful for the lower price on broken ones, so I have seen and tried to repair a couple who had lost limbs. The shoulder joint in particular is a tiny sliver of plastic that, once it breaks, I just...

    My 3:-4" Figure Collection!

    I really like the customized Mini-Muppets, especially Statler and Waldorf. Alex
