9PM Central Time. If you have a copy of "The Bells of Fraggle Rock", begin the episode at exactly 8:38PM (Central Time). If you do, the Fraggles will ring their bells right on the hour.

Well, way back in the old days of MC, there was a chat that happened around that time each Dec. 21st. Different MC members would ring bells. That's what I was thinking of. Maybe we should all vote on a time that would be good for everyone to ring a bell. :coy:

Wait a minute...I thought it was going to be 9PM central time. :confused: Normally it is. At any rate, if any MCers decide to watch the Bells of Fraggle Rock, start the episode at exactly 22 minutes before the hour. When the Fraggle's ring their bells, it will be exactly on the hour...

Who's joining in for this year's bell ringing this Dec. 21st?

That Snoopy song is one of my favorites too. If they play it on the radio while I'm driving, I'll just cruise around until it's over. It's too good of a song to miss! Oh, and there's a grocery store called Meijer's in my area (pronounced "Meyer"). Anyhow, they have an aisle of stocking...

I guess I don't mind that so much as when people forget to shut the lights off when they go to bed at night. A couple of years ago, I worked the graveyard shift. On the drive home, (it was about 3:30AM), the city was deserted. I noticed that someone had forgotten to shut off their lights...

I got a tale to tell... Back in late August, I went to Hobby Lobby (it's an arts and crafts store for those who don't have one in your area) to get some supplies for a sculpture. I walked past all the regular knick-knack stuff they always have, the floral stuff, found the art stuff, then...

The final comment "When I grow up, I want to be a policeman" always seemed like something they tacked on at the end...like they wanted 5 additional seconds for the clip. The filmed footage during that comment doesn't match what they were doing before either. It looks like the camera crew just...

I know I'm late to this thread...but I just thought I'd mention I made a card for the family and friends of Faz Fazakas. I didn't say anything until now because I wanted Sesame Workshop to see it first. A friend of mine passed it around, then informed me that it will be taken to the folks at...

Here's my 2¢: It was great to see Frank Oz talk about Jim Henson and the characters they performed. I was also glad that Brian Jones got to express his thoughts about the book as well. Archival footage of Sam and Friends and the Henson Workshop shots were lovely. The clip montages of...

Well, after all this time, it looks like someone finally found this commercial. I know it's been ages, but if anyone wanted to check it out for the weirdness/nostalgic factor (or to see another example of puppetry in commercials) then here you go:

Oh...YES. I absolutely loved this stuff when it was available...and not just because it was Muppet related cereal. It was like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but even cinnamonnier, sugarier, and tasted the best on Saturday mornings when the best cartoons were on. Bugs Bunny, Garfield and Friends...

And the giant rabbit made it to an Old School DVD, no less. Here's an idea just to lie out there on the table. Sesame Workshop does listen to fans' requests from time to time when it comes to releasing clips. It'll happen either on their own channel "There's a Hole in the Bucket, Dear Liza"...

Caroll and Debi are wonderful folks. Just as kind as you see 'em in the interviews and a lot like human versions of Big Bird in personality. I actually watched Caroll draw a few times. It's like seeing footage of Charles Schulz or Brian Froud draw. You watch and then...poof! There's this...

Hello all, This article already appears on today's (Aug. 4, 2013) Muppet Mindset, but I also wanted to share it with my "home base" since 1998...Muppet Central. I hope all of you have a time in your life as powerful and joyous as I did one year ago today...

Speaking of YouTube...does anyone know why the full episodes of "The Jim Henson Hour" have all been yanked off of YouTube? I figured it was some ownership thing...but for some reason "Dog City" and "Inner Tube" remain. The Storyteller series is gone, too (but can be found online elsewhere if...

Thanks, folks. I know Wontkins isn't getting blown up, smashed, eaten, etc. but I figured under the circumstances, the two of them could declare a truce.

I know I'm late to this discussion, but I just wanted to share my tribute card to Jane Henson. The original is with a friend of mine who works at Sesame Workshop. This person made sure to show it to one of the Henson kids. I can't really say any more about that, but I did tell my friend...

I've seen some of the Looney Tunes Show, and I dig it. Portraying Daffy as a slacker is perfect. You really expect him to go home and act like that, even when you watch one of the older Looney Tunes shorts. (True, sometimes Daffy lived in a pond, but you could also see him mooching off of...

It's really too bad that the Wilkins Coffee company went out of business. No other beverage would seem worthy enough for drinking a toast to Mrs. Henson. Otherwise, I'd be raising a steaming mug of it high right now. Nevertheless...my condolences to the Henson kids, her loved ones and anyone...
